WITCH/CRAFT/WOM/MAN/SHIP AW10

MAAIKE MEKKING - AW10
Ya Please.
A dark  // endearing collection
One thing I don't understand is how she's had editorial space in....hold on...waittt...
ZOO. Erm sure. Ok, What!?!? Because that would make logical sense. Zoo; the finger always on the pulse.... of......fashion.

"MEKKING PRESENTS HER COLLECTION WITH AN INTIMATE GROUP OF INTERDISCIPLINARY TALENTS, COLLABORATING WITH ARTISTS TANIA LESHKINA, JOSEPH XORTO AND ANASTASIA FREYGANG."


"TRANSITION, DUALITY AND NOSTALGIA ARE AT THE HEARTLAND OF HER AUTUMN/WINTER 2010-11 COLLECTION "
                                

"THIS SEASON MEKKING PRESENTS A FERVENT, MYTHICAL LANDSCAPE OF SEPARATES; REFERENCING TIME AND RITUAL, EVOKING THE ATMOSPHERE OF FILMS SUCH AS BADLANDS (1973) AND CHRISTIANE F (1981)."



MATERIALS DIVERSE IN TEXTURE AND WEIGHT EVOKE BOTH A PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL TREK: : : : :
 
"THE INDISPENSABILITY OF DENIM AND JERSEY, THE FRIVOLITY OF CHIFFON, THE COMPLEXITY OF CAMEL WOOL AND CORDUROY AND THE SPLENDOUR OF SHEEPSKIN.!"

Wassup with Wasson

Erin Wasson is bloody cool.  ( She's hot as well... )

Hence why she's a super cool, super hot, super successful model. Two reasons why I like Erin? Simple.

Firstly without a doubt, (documented in this here photo) she can pull off that really fierce two-tone hair thing that I am debating this summer. Like a mix between 'you need to get your roots done. NOW', and, 'Fuck it, I don't want to get my roots done.' This has been attempted before but I think before it gets to that sexy give-a-shit stage, it likes to stay in that 'I'm too [poor/lazy/] to do anything about it' stage.

ANYWAY. Erin is cool, we've established this. Alexander Wang agrees. The less stalker reason is infact:
.LOW LUV.
.LOW LUV.
.LOW LUV.

My train to what's new has been delayed since AW08 when Wang used them on the runway. But they're "timeless" so who gives a fuck. And she's only just launched Low Luv.
