Lacoste & Malandrino Spring 2011 Collaboration

[ChrissyM]

I didn't see a thread on this but tFS did an article about it...

there are some pics of the 12-piece line in the article: http://www.thefashionspot.com/style-trends/news/161258-lacoste-malandrino-spring-2011-images-out

I'm kind of liking the mix...
looks like a nice malandrino spin on the lacoste aesthetic.

meh. i think it looks irrelevant. ive never liked the lacoste aesthetic. i hate polo shirts. i think she should have chosen a better brand to work with. she has already collaborated with the limited. so she doesnt have a good track record working with partners.

i could see this working for the country club set though...
something beyond the typical golf or tennis outfit?

The piece I despise is the polo dress. Otherwise I quite like it, not super radical but much better than these Fred Perry collabs coming out these days.

I seriously hate polo shirts (meaning I strongly dislike Lacoste).

And this looks like some kind of wannabe chic Lacoste. She is so talented.... But at least she gets press with this.
