A few things to note:
-Silhouettes are still sleek
-Bracelets are still large
-Booty shorts are still in
-Classic Chanel tweed is there
-Adding random shiny objects... apparently that is cool
-sleeves stay short (bracelet length, 3/4, cap)
-Wispy threads hanging off (think flapper)
-Still a lot of flowy light fabrics, layered with floral prints
- Dark colours so far, a lot of black and greys
-Seeing some denim and leather
Okay here's what I'm getting out of this: Rocker crossed flapper trying to be an uptown girl.
It's fairly dark, a little gothic. Very interesting collection though, worth taking a gander

So as a follow up, I was reading an NY times article on this, and apparently the classic tweed is ribbons...
ReplyDeleteI like it. Ribbons are cute.
And the feathers are too make it "light". I think some of those dresses had way to many feathers to make anything light. Personally just because an ostrich has feathers doesn't mean it's leaving the ground.
Something like that.
