Having been in the fashion industry all my life (since birth, actually), I think my frustrations about not designing clothing anymore come out in my wearing them, as I tend to seek out the more interesting pieces. I'm glad I'm in NYC, where one can wear some of the more adventurous items, especially in Layer-Happy Winter. This is a new coat I got from one of current fave designers, Rick Owens. Kinda super-villainy with it's high, high double collar.

So they actually do create coats like that in real life. Looks like I owe Tetsuya Nomura an apology.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely supervillain-y though. Before I scrolled down all the way I was thinking mad scientist. (I hear white is the new black this year, in all the evil social circles.)
Oh, it's in black, but I wanted to keep all the details in there!
ReplyDeleteAh, well! It looks pretty cool in white, too. :)
ReplyDeleteIn the white it reminds me of Dib's dad in "Invader Zim".
