Fashion Show Flowers

Based on the sets from his last show for Jil Sander (top) and his first show for Dior Couture (bottom), it seems that Raf Simons knows his way around a flower shop. The result in both cases was both beautiful and dramatic. In the case of the Dior show, that was the result of over 1 million flowers.

Jil Sander Fall 2011 Sweaters

Jil Sander's re-envisioned ski sweaters happened to be inspired by one of my favorite movies, Blake Edwards' The Pink Panther. One of the reasons I loved the movie so much as a kid were the costumes by Givenchy and Yves Saint Laurent. While Raf Simons sent more literal translations down the runway, I was taken by these bold chunky knits. Finally, '60s Italian ski culture feels modern again.
