Hats etc.

SPRING SUMMER 2012 COURTESY OF VOGUE.COM

Because studying goes nowhere, I'd rather be an onlooker of shows.

BAND OF OUTSIDERS
For me, this collection was just pure beauty, HANDS DOWN. With the straw hats (that seems to repeat in Erdem if you scroll down) and the death-like girls. The make-up on them.. bronzed/blushed cheeks + school uniforms.. WOW ! Say hello to SADISTIC SCHOOL GIRLS !!! This collection showed way less colour than other NYFW shows that were full of brights, pastels, glitter, and prints ! Though this did end in floral, flowy stuff -- as if to make the "grand" girly finale.

ERDEM
Erdem Moraliogu woos me with every one of his collections. This time around, it was the HATS and the MATCHING SHADES; both made out of lace !!!!! This is when I die then come back alive. Erdem was also all about bringing the girly sophistication into granny style that can be worn on the red carpet. Pastels + prints can't go wrong this coming spring.

CHRISTOPHER KANE
As I was watching this, my friend Jinjoo said that the clothes were like "origami." Perfect description, eh ? And as Vogue.com puts it.. it's "algebraic lines." Notes for trend is GLITTER !!!!!!! and the sixties-like modernity/futurism. I found that the sandals reminded me of Acne's sandals from few seasons ago and the prints were all VERY CHRISTOPHER KANE. LOVING the BOLD SLITS everywhere !!!!!!!!

DEREK LAM
--fuck short skirts now and go for at least a knee-length !
--collar action !
--liking the little bits of snake especially in the bag !
--OMG, stripes on stripes !??!!? This is like my fav everyday-wear !!!
--all leather dress is made cute by using a tiny clutch !

...But the big deal is DEREK LAM USES PRINTS !??!! WHAT. THE. F***. But right after the big print uses (pretty out of character and hideous in my point of view..) came all black & white pieces. Thank the lord. We have been saved.
