Advanced Style Film: trailer



So excited for thisssssssssssssss

These women have seen it all and understand style better than any of us can (that is, until we're 90 years old)
The fact that they can see what's being produced these days and physically feel the references rather than just be educated on them like our generation is = fashion super heroes.

"Up until 80 you never say your age, after 80 you brag about it"

Can't wait to be 80 years old (and 80% plastic)

Jusss kiddings.

Bottega Verano


There's something about the half-seasons that I just freakin love. I think it's the way you can sometimes sense what's inspiring each designer for their  main RTW collections. Also sometimes they end up being the watered down version of the previous season which is refreshing to see at times. Anyways, anyways, Bottega's out and while they weren't all stand outs these three definitely caught my brown lady eyes. Pink is makin it's rounds (as usual) while brown is beginning to join the party. It's turning into my fall color prom queen. I've been feeling it with black like Tomas did in his one-piece + shawl collar cardi. I'm also still really into the deep shoulder tank. I recently used it on a gown I did for the historical society and I can't help say G'DAM when you get a mouth full of shoulder. Scrumptious.



Ma-Lam'e

That was a mexican joke. FYI.

This fall we're getting gold-fingered y'all.

Knights of the Donatella Table


   Am I gon be wearin chainmaille this fall, Arturo? 

Whats gonna happen is more along the lines of:

Symmetrical embroider, beading & applique reminiscent of the doublets used in the 16th century. I have a feeling we're gonna be seeing heaps of these sort of embellishments. It's basically gonna be the new exposed zipper. Gon be on errthang. 


The 16th/17th Century influence will def be around for a bit too. 

Leave it to the Kaiser to Versailles dick slap us. Marie Club Kid Antoinette. Someone make her a friendship bracelet.
