I love fashion and even monitor a handful of fashion blogs every week. I check out some of the showrooms, sample sales and fashion shows (if there’s time) when in New York, Paris, London, Miami, LA or Chicago (yes, even Chicago). Sadly, San Francisco isn’t on the list. Fashion, like art in this city, while its here, its quietly here and takes a back seat to technology, biotech and the holistic world.
So, when I find something interesting, exotic, and out there, its great to marvel and share. While no doubt, these fit the out there category and both brought a smile, wouldn’t it be great if out there design was just a little more practical? A little more affordable? Encouraged so that there were more than a few occasions to drape creative color and angles all over your body?
If I had an invite to the Oscars, I’m not even sure I’d wear one of these two numbers. What’s with the pink outfit (are they kidding?), but it is a spectacle and deserves a view. At least one. Below: Givenchy and Valentino
Here’s two I would consider wearing by Chanel and Lacroix
