I am obsessed. And rightly so, look at this! Guillaume Henry, you must stop giving me heart palpitations of this magnitude. How gorgeous is that mustard coat with huge fur sleeves? And the final dress? Simone De Beauvoir was cited as a muse for this presentation (read ‘the second sex’ and let French feminist philosophy transform your life), and rightly so, she would approve. The look is intellectual, sexy and unquestionably wearable. The hip length blazers and pea coats in particular make me swoon.
This whole thing is so me, (if you dont believe me consult my i'm a liar post outfit ) I would wear everything. A friend once told me I was the Anna Dello Russo of minimalism, because I somehow happen to maximise all my basic pieces, this collection is the maximalist of minimalism! Its so simple, so traditional yet so modern. So falling-in-love worthy! I’m loving the navys, mustard and oranges definitely colours I shall be working into my wardrobe this autumn winter. The styling of the collection should also be praised the preppy tailoring clashes delightfully with the john lennon-esque shades giving it an almost clinical sci-fic feel that works so wonderfully i think. This collection hits store in July i think, im more than a little excited to have a good rifle through
