camouflage.

AW13

Oh look, another Topshop camouflage jacket. YAWN.
Camo is becoming a bit of a mundane sight these days but if there's one designer who has the ability to revitalise the print into something exciting then it's Christopher Kane. Alongside the scraggly fabrics, the beaded embellishments and the structured, wire-like detailing was camouflage in a fresh powerful blue and flattening metallics. Yup, once again Christopher's clothing has captured my heart.

Also showing their take on the trend was Marques Almeida whose denim engrossed collection, with rugged raw edges and carefree mentality, has supplied us with a grungy option courtesy of the oversized tees. So desirable. I am sorry if my blogging is quiet and irregular at the moment but I am without a laptop (TIP: Don't spill water over the keyboard) Please stay with me!!

Christopher Kane Pre-Fall 2013

I LOVE CHRISTOPHER KANE. Have I ever mentioned that? I have always had a lustful attraction to his clothing (made more so by the galaxy-themed 2011 resort) and the sight of a new collection would fill me with excitable glee. Just last month I thought this allurement was finally dying down but as I wondered around Liberty department store forming an imaginary wish-list in my mind, I caught sight of the red and grey leopard print biker and in a unstoppable manner dashed over to touch it as though it was some kind of treasured possession that nobody else should be allowed to get their hands on but me. A friendly sales assistant came over and asked if I needed any help. When I replied "no thank you, I'm just browsing" she then offered me 10% discount. Sigh. Not any 10% discount will supply me with enough money to own a current piece of Christoper Kane clothing. And alas, it appears this weird fetish isn't going to die down any time soon as the Pre-fall collection is far too appealing.

I can picture myself wearing the dresses to non-existent events, the jumper on days out with friends, the shorts on summer strolls and the coats on a snowy winter's day. He has revisited previous prints and shapes and combined all fabulous aspects into one collection and there is even the occurrence of Swarovski crystal necklaces adding an extra special touch. Seriously, what is not to love?
