Now I really dislike Angelina Jolie, but Vogue put together an excellent editorial shoot with her... so I had to include it. Still don't like her! But you know.
Bottom right: Oscar de la Renta yellow evening gown with embroidered black & white flowers...
To die for! I loved this resort collection!

Let me first say, I'm sorry for being so long winded with this post. I have extremely fond memories of all of the clothing in the spring 2008 collections- I saw them in Colette, Bon Marche, and Galleries Lafayette while I was studying abroad the summer of 2008. It was the first time I was in the presence of designer clothing. I was able to touch them and feel them and just meet them in person. I also believe that 2008 was kind of the last time that designers were really making clothes that were inspiring and fun and art-like. The economy has been rough on everyone. Designers, retailers, customers. Designers are having to design collections that customers won't buy. Hopefully we'll see a change in this attitude sometime soon. I've missed clothing with personality and life.
This Dolce & Gabbana is so fun. I remember visiting D&G while in Paris and everything was amazing.
This Prada collection was so beautiful with Asian illustrations. Check out those amazing shoes!
I hate to feature two for MK... but these are stunning. I love the small prints.
Chanel
This St. John frock is beautiful.
This dress by Alberta Ferretti is so timeless and history inspired. I want it.
You remember this Hermes campaign with the elephants wearing makeup? I'm surprised they weren't ranked over the coals like Banksy was.
So for my fashion forecasting class, I'm working on a project where I have to create color stories for spring 2010. One of my stories that I'm really excited about is Boy Scout Chic. Check out these designs from the runways in Paris this week!Hermes
