Roland Mouret - Ready to Wear Fall 2008 - 2009
I wasn’t all that in love with the spring 2008 collection for RM by Roland Mouret, but he has turned me around for fall 2008. Style.com says it’s a pre-fall collection and the fashion spot says it’s Fall 2008, i’m going with the fashion spot.

That Secret Garden a-line dress by Chloe is the stuff of dreams!

I blogged about theSecret Garden a-line dress by Chloe from the Fall 2007 ready to wear collection in November. It’s fantastic in pictures and absolutely stunning in person.

I tried on the Chloe dress for kicks and I just had to take unauthorized photos. It was so beautiful. A heavy duty open end two-way zipper ran the length of the back of the dress. It’s definitely a winter dress, the wool made it a lot heavier than I expected. I’m in love, I can’t believe it was on the sale rack. It was still too pricey for me, so I only got a brief taste of its exquisiteness.

This is the runway look and a closer look at the detail.
