This is from Balmain’s Spring collection.

It reminds me of woven armor.
There is something organic and techy about it. Actually, it reminds me of domed cathedrals, if their space was laid flat.

Hey guys! I took some video & photos from the Custo show today. Here it is.
I think the designer is relaxing his aesthetic. It feels more natural, more organic, while still keeping with his geometric leanings. I loved the slouchy feel, which is decidedly grunge, but with luxe fur and leather trimmings. It’s camp, but Barcelona style. Camp Barcelona, y’all.

Isabel Marant S/S 2013

The Isabel Marant S/S 2013 collection is showing today for Paris Fashion Week.

She spawned a whole legion of wedge sneakers. How do we feel about those anyway? Love her, but wedge sneakers make me feel like I’m looking at an animal that has 2 disparate parts fused together. Is that a bad analogy?

Don’t get me wrong. I would kill to be a French girl walking around in Marant duds. sigh.
