details in nature



There are three shows I wait for with anticipation every season: Givenchy, Lanvin and Jil Sander. They always set the mood for the coming months. I was very excited to see the Jil Sander S/S 2010 collection out and immediately read about the inspiration behind it, combed through all the pieces and details. Raf Simons mentioned how it was all about nature this season. The dresses and pumps looked like the peeling bark of birch trees, the detailed white voluminous shoulders reminded me of orchids, and the meshwork that appeared as pants and over dresses were reminiscent of spider webs. Even the rings reminded me of the quartz pebbles I used to look for in the woods as a child when I lived in Vancouver.

Completely inspiring. I'm still drooling over the details.
