I realized this week that I have taken a trip in a time machine, sartorially speaking, back to 1986! Breton shirt, denim shorts, thick wool tights, oversize cardigan, dark blue Converse. I am wearing the same ‘uniform’ I rigged myself out in when I was 16 & it feels so very ‘me’! I just can’t do super groomed, elegant, ultra-feminine. If I could (and had a large trust fund or similar) I would be beating down the doors of Kenzo to get my paws on the Autumn/winter 09/10 collection.
Folkloric, flowers, foliage, babushka, cossack style. The most beautifully tailored coats, patchwork smocks. Ok, I need the smelling salts, swoon!
Antonio Marras’ collection reminded me of an illustration I saw a while ago over at Flickr by Kitty Vane.
Just gorgeous! I am sending out a plea for an Astulabee, Kitty Vane, Le Train Fantome adult apparel line with knitwear and jewelry by Resurrection Fern, styling and illustrated detailing by Hibou Caillou Chou, so very ‘now’ kittens!
I snuck out of the tipi for this one, I couldn’t resist the opportunity to put together my fantasy fashion ‘A-Team’! Who would feature in your fantasy collaboration?
Oh how I love the country folky style! That drawing is so
cute! Love it!! I also love the cream dress in the first
photo set! Awesomeness!
Thank you!
Loads of love!
Rane and kids

I’m salivating over those runway photos.
Needless to say, I’m a huge fan of the folksy, slavic, gypsy, foresty look, and so this post is like, umh, chocolate (which I also love very, very much) to me! 😀
Thank you for featuring my little drawing. 🙂
I love this collection too!!
the tree dress is gorgeous!!
thank you for putting me in the team! 😀
I would definitely feature you in my fantasy collaboration!

I am in love with the green coat at the top and that blue one in the last picture. Now I know why I have been collecting eastern european folkloric wool scarves for the last decade.
I would love to be the knitwear/jewlery designer although I am not sure making hoodies for littles sly foxes should appear on my resume.
I vote for LL&O as milliner for the A team. I think the polar boys faux fur hat would look amazing on any of these models.
I adore this style so much! And it is so very inspiring too.
These clothes are too beautiful. I can’t get over the model in the last picture, she is just darling! I love the little smirk on her face. If only I could look that angelic without any make and an over sized jacket 😉
I can’t believe how much innovation fashion has achieved after so many years. Great post by the way. 🙂
Oh! I love this…..so wonderful and fantastic! And that drawing? Adorable! Off to check out her shop!

Hi! I noticed that my website isn’t appearing well just in case you want to read what I think about fashion being a fashion buff that I also am. Cheers!
