So this is going to sound really stupid, but basically I saw almost this exact print on someone somewhere to do with the Spring 2012 shows that I've been avidly picking over. But now I can't find which one it was. Maybe it was my warped takeaway from the Dolce & Gabbana show whilst everyone else was looking at the pasta earrings. Or perhaps it was my interpretation of the Dries Van Noten lanscape black and white prints. Anyway, if anyone could help me out & prove that I am not completely mad that would be lovely.
Whatever the inspiration I am very happy I pressed bid on eBay & this shirt found it's way to me at almost the exact moment I discovered trousers, & just 10 months after creepers entered my life. Now I can dress like a very fashion conscious mod. Or Audrey Hepburn (the trousers) or a painter with the sickest painting shirt ever. Something about these black trousers makes me want to dress up as other people. Like when I tried them on wearing a black t-shirt, in my head I looked like Christina Ricci in Pan Am, all beatnik & monochrome. Maybe it's just trying to get away from the black trousers of mandatory school uniform...
i love that blouse!
ReplyDeleteUgh creepers, get in my life too!
ReplyDeleteyou sure are "upping your trouser game" these days. i need to get myself sorted too. i was going to say dries actually, though i'm sure paul smith had something like this going on but also jil sander did some faces on shirts like that
ReplyDeleteI love the lovely one! So beautiful. Those are great trousers too. Character dressing is so much fun.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing blouse! and I love how you've paired it with the creepers & black pants <3
