ohh i like the yellow ensamble.
this is a little off topic, but what are those round victorian-esque buttons (they are on both the yellow and one of the grey dresses) called?!?! i've been wondering that forever and always forget to ask someone when i see them. you guys would probably know
they are also pretty popular amoung boots. thank you!!!

 

[softgrey]

Preen is and has always been my favorite of the London pack....quite a disappointment in the last two,as Space mentioned. But I am extremely happy to see they've changed directions this time.

Great looking pieces here.

It looks alot like Comme Des Garcons from the 80's which is pretty cool that the same look is being shown again 20 years later.

i can see the cdg influence mutterlein...but i think the addition of the victorian elements is something that preen has added, no?...
i like it very much...

I like it as well. I think it goes to show that what Rei did back then has a timeless quality to it despite having an 80's vibe. You can't call a lot of the clothes from that decade timeless. It's great to see Preen bringing it back and making it modern and placing it into the right context for today.

Some of it is beautiful, but I don't care for a big portion of it.
