LFW09 | MFW09

(image heavy post alert!!!!)

Another 2000 words due on Monday and a million things to see to before that. Feeling infinitely stupid for attending classes unprepared and subjecting myself to open fire since so many people are skipping and I know it. Anyway, enough of wallowing in my misery. I've been spending wasting time surfing and saving a ton of photos onto my limited hard disk.

Here is a selection—I can never single out just one or two as favourites—from London and Milan:
(it is a long list, you have been warned.....)

Gianfranco Ferre for the loveliest collection of illusory exaggerated hourglasses.



Mary Kantratzou for sheer brilliance. Perfume bottles... I like!



Pollini for detail and the motif which reminds me of my limber youth.



Basso & Brooke for the prints and mixing.



Bottega Veneta for pure sophiscation.



Christopher Kane for doodling clothes onto the models.



Erdem as previously mentioned here;

Julien Macdonald for sparkly basics.



Luisa Beccaria for romance.



Marni for, solely, the shoe. LOVE. THE. SILHOUETTE.



Richard Nicoll for a collection evocative of anime space nurses.....



Prada's f/w 09 rubber-soled shoes (left) were reminiscent of the YSL's f/w 08 Trooper (right), don't you think? I much prefer the latter. No zips, no fuss, just slip them right off and on = sex.



The highly anticipated Paris Fashion Week will be here in a jiffy! I'll try to update again soon without compromising my assignment this time. Bonne nuit mes amis!

Until we meet again,
J'adore
