I loved you when you opened like a lily to the heat

you know that feeling when you meet someone for the first time, and you just know you would want to know them forever from that point on...
well i get that way about clothes, imagine re-living that feeling every time you see something beautiful present itself down that runway.
it's love at first sight, except i can love them all at the same time.always.
HAIDER ACKERMANN FA11 RTW is a perfect example to said idea, white and black never ran so seamlessly together, so innately. I don't think i'll ever fall out of love with leather & lapels of mammoth proportions. The whole collection was about the relationship between fabric and cut, there were sensual silks & heather-ed knits so flocked that they were practically transparent and lots of leg showing thanks to perfect asymmetrical cuts in the otherwise very modest metallic intertwined maxis. This collection may have changed my mind about wide cinch belts as well! Two words: dreary romance.
