I love, love, love clothes that have a lot of structure. But, not structure as in shoulder pads and strong angles (tho those are nice at times, too) but styles where the structure is so pared down that the piece lets the wearer become a part of it.
I'm in love with the simple statements made in these pieces up here...A chunky, sculptural shoe (a pedestal for your foot!) with perfect proportions... Painterly pendants... An important blue note to a bracelet... and a massive swath of paint that knows no bounds.
I had fun creating this layout, and as always, I love seeing new shapes and ideas that actually seem wearable. Enjoy your weekends everyone, and I'll see you on Tuesday-- I'll be away from the studio on Monday. xx s

Meeee too. I feel like those shoes would be so flattering on... but also edgy enough to be different, and not so high they look ridiculous!
The blue reminds me of Yves Klein and his IKB (International Klein Blue)...which was actually created especially for him, and even patented, I believe! : )
