Wild Combination: The Beautiful Ones by Torres + Bigolin
I'll admit to having a soft spot for any label with Arthur Russell playing on their home page. When I got an email from Torres + Bigolin about the FW'10 campaign they shot for Argentinian label The Beautiful Ones, I was happy to learn that brother and sister team Lisandro and Augustina Rodriguez' good taste goes beyond music. The upcoming collection has a confident laid back vibe that I love.
I'm always a sucker for draped jersey, but lately sheer panels and leather have also been etching out a place in my heart. So, I was happy to be introduced to Under.Ligne FW'10, a collection filled with all my favourite things.
With Spring taking it's time to arrive in Berlin, I've been in in between mode. It's too cold to even think of spring styles, and not quite cold enough for the winter wardrobe (thank goodness). New Zealand label Company of Strangers by Sara Aspinal gives a nice selection of transitional pieces in their AW'10 collection: soft leathers, perfect layering pieces, cropped jackets & muted prints.
The new Armor collection makes me forget about all the fancy clothes I've been coveting this season, and instead has me thinking about basics that would serve as a canvas for the amazing pieces from Collection 10. Not usually much of an accessories person, I have literally been dreaming about this spectacular shoulder piece.
Elroy just released their SS'10 collection online, and as someone who truly appreciates comfort, I'm excited about so many styles offered. My search for the ultimate pair of relaxed fit denim may have come to an end with the Leuka Pants. As a bonus, the entire collection is made from eco-friendly fabrics (the butter soft chambray denim is actually Tencel).
