Year: 2008

Inspired by “Anime”

As a former hardcore anime addict, I should be all over Biddell’s new collection, it’s influenced by anime. However, this invite, with it’s piss poor excuse for an anime character tells me something else. And really, couldn’t you have dressed the chick. Standard anime outfit, you even have 2 choices: 1. extremely short miniskirt and tank top revealing heaving breasts 2. schoolgirl uniform with the above mentioned short miniskirt.

Miu Miu Ready to Wear – Fall Winter 2008 – 2009

Miu Miu Ready to Wear – Fall Winter 2008 – 2009 I was in denial about the 90s revival, but this hideous collection from Miu Miu and Chloe Sevigny By Opening Ceremony have sealed the deal.

I got the shots I could without having to talk to people and explain the whole fashion blogging thing.

I talked about White Out conditions on Day 3. Those conditions were a joke compared to Friday’s outing. Friday we did Fresh Tracks which is breakfast at the Roundhouse Lodge on Whistler and first access to the mountain before opening to the public. It was snowing so we were looking for a good time. It was puking snow on the mountain all day. The freeze line was kinda high so at one point we were skiing in rain. It was awful returning to the freeze line because then you’d get cold again. The peak was insane. 60 – 80 km/hr winds and absolutely zero visibility. I wanted to take a picture of what I saw but it would be the same as posting an image of a white square. All you saw was white, there was no way to determine which way was up or down. Gravity sometimes helped and other times the winds were pushing you so much you just prayed there was no cliffs around to fall off of. There was a reason …

Hermès Ready to Wear – Fall Winter 2008- 2009

Hermès Ready to Wear – Fall Winter 2008- 2009 If you are looking for trends, don’t come to Hermès. There clothing doesn’t follow the trends (lets face it, there market isn’t looking for the latest trend). They make very high quality pieces and I was quite taken with the coats this year. images: thefashionspotcom
