Counting down my top ten favourite looks/collections from Autumn/Winter 2008.
This season was about structure and proportion with references to the 1940s, '70s & 80's (eras when such proportion was prevalent) however it was the designers who dared to be different who have stood out as the good, the bad and the ugly. Here they are...
These are my absolute favourites from Winter '07. They range from Alberta Feretti's minimalism to Christian Dior's all out glamour, Balenciaga's ethnic eclecticism to Marc Jacobs' restrained sophistication.
This Lookbook shows 2 looks from each of the top and bottom 5 collections.
Couture should be viewed as art, as sculpture. It is pointless to justify it's use and wearability! just worship the clothes for what they are in the same way we look at art, Couture is a porthole into the mind of the worlds most imaginative people.
Some see this season’s ‘flappy florals’ as a disappointment after last season, but there were collections that resisted flower power or looked at femininity in a new way and it is these collections that will come to represent summer 2008...here are the best
10 Furs, 6 coats/jackets and 9 dresses. The kitch and the classic, the cool and the eclectic; these are the winter essentials for any style or personality.
