So I'm back to rehashing old threads 
This week I'm blogging the Jil Sander shows.
When I first saw the collections I said the same thing I said for Prada; editors are going to shoot that to death.
Some other notable thoughts were:
-the collection really seems to be about the color accents more than the bold color. For example, detailing on the back of the jackets, the color of the pieces at the bottom most layer, and the soles of the shoes. I have a feeling that linings even brought more color into pieces
-the cut was very relaxed, very flowy and I loved that because to me it contrasts with my idea of the Raf Simon silhouette which is more rigid. Also I sadly couldn't get over the cut of the shorts... my thunder thighs would not be able to handle them and I keep wondering if they are lined... if not, I'm not sure if they should be put in stores for mass consumption
-both collections(menswear and womenswear) to me were making a point that luxury doesn't have to mean embellished and simplicity doesn't have to mean muted tones... we're stepping into a time of neo minimalism which is being brought on because although we are in an economic downturn, people are very optimistic about the future and really don't want to admit it to themselves...

The lining was not even fitted at all, but somehow still hides most of my legs
