AF Vandevorst F/W 08.09 Paris

j'adore!!! this has got to be the strongest collection they have done in some seasons.....said it last autumn but this one has overtaken that,i think. i love the blue they worked with and the textures,the volumes and layerings....and the puffa and quilted aspects are just adorably unique.

I don't really know how to feel about this collection. Some of it is so fantastic in its use of volume, textures and colour. But other pieces just don't work for me. But, I do love the Pollock reference (in the make-up) as well!

 

[Foxie-Pooh]

Woah..kinda love the makeup...the clothes...not so much

 

[clay]

Wonderful collection.

Especially the first four looks and the last four.

After a so-so SS08, they've come back with a strong collection, indeed (I find that I'm more enchanted by their FW efforts, last FW was def gorgeous). Love everything except that red gown (thankfully, layered over the black shirt redeems it)

The styling is very VB, wouldn't you agree, Scott?

I love this to pieces. I don't think the dresses are as strong as last fall, but I agree about the quilted and puffy bits, especially paired with those glorious knits.

I like most of it especially the knits, the silky dresses, the suits, the drapes. Some of it made me think of Dries Van Noten last AW collection.

But the puff jacket and red and white or grey/white striped tights/shorts, uh, no!
