TAO F/W 10.11 Paris

oh god, it just keeps getting better. i think this is my favorite tao collection.

 

i want to wrap myself in these things...


* the look with the red socks is ...

 

I can't stop staring at the patchwork pieces, hopefully we'll get some HQs of it.. it's really beautiful. Such a feel-good show overall.. I was missing this in the last few seasons from Tao but I'm glad it's showing up again.

thanks for the pics, Inaya!

 

at the risk of sounding repetitive, holy moly this is astounding......
i think i dragged most of the looks to my desktop for safe keeping.
how am i going to choose?

i love what you chose softgrey. i could totally see you in it.
i'm going to have a tough time deciding on just a couple but i think these are my first impulses.

p.s. i'm so glad i bought the boots this season, i've worn them a lifetime already.

 

Yes, thank you, Inaya

It's so playful and whimsical this time around, like it should belong to JFW. I'm loving all the pile on textural works, the knots, gathers...Insane layerings, and i'm not one for stonewash denim and patchworks but she really made it work here Exquisite

 

i agree mullet...
there is a really happy vibe and it's good to have that back at tao...

and i think that all the colours used in the finale looks are really directional..
i am drawn to them as well..

i love all the drawstrings and the twill tape especially...
this is a bit of a trademark for the new black label stuff at marni actually ( which i also adore)...
and i think there is something just so 'right' about it...

the scarves are all crazy good too...right?...

 

thank you so much Inaya for posting pictures!

how lovely n cute "mess". looks like sale ppl will have a hard time describing how to wear the clothes

 

I really like this- the dishevelledness, the little-girl feel to a lot of it. And oh goodness the detail shots are gorgeous...karma to you, Inaya!

 

I think I'm going to throw up

oopsy, could someone gime one of those rags to clean this mess

 

I love this! It's so good! One of my favorite collections of Fall 2010!

 

crisgalaxy, I really respect your opinion and right to dislike this but as I've been seeing similar posts of you around, I wish you could state your [negative] view in a more respectful and hopefully mature manner, this is primarily a discussion board, not a blog or private chat, the dynamics are basically comment & reply, that's what's kept us alive for many years, and it's almost impossible to reply to the comments you've been making, they're either gibberish, smiley-oriented or downright rude so please, try to respect the community you're in as well as other posters and help discussion grow instead of.. rot. I should address this privately but I know you're new and I know there are a few members just as new who've been making similar comments so it'd be nice if they could all read this and help making discussions more productive. Not to mention it'd be interesting to read what you really think, expressed in a manner that's readable and accessible for all ages.

 

me too i'm so pleased she's brought her whites and creams back to life. very sweet just like old times..she's still kept that darker side though that kind of, to me came as an uninvited guest lol in the past couple of shows, but it's a lot less aggressive this time : -) and i love the fabric she's chosen for the patchwork -an artwork in each piece!

 

I like the individual pieces but I am not feeling some of the color combinations, argyle socks or the brocade print.

 

the first few looks were a bit rocky, but now that the detail shots are coming in I think this is one of the most thoughtful collections TAO has put out as of yet. leaps and bounds beyond the last collection I think.

 

This is the Tao I fell in love with...
This is remarkably gorgeous. Such a well-rounded collection. Every single aspect is charming and totally necessary. I want EVERYTHING.

 

Sorry but thats the way I felt about this collection. I'll try to ease up on my critiques. None of my silly comments are ment to be taken this serious and I don't think I've taken my comments too far.

 

i agree with sarah mower here. it's so commes des garcons in its vision but it's honestly so beautiful and demure. i just love it. there exist pieces here that -- with the right sales machine behind it, of course -- would fit in perfectly in the wardrobes of everyone from our first lady (this is just her kind of cardigan) to the most fashionable parisian girl (seriously, those scarves are heaven). let's hope they can make a go of it.

 

i asolutely love this!
tao is a real genious! there's so much to explore in this collection. i need to watch it again and again.

 

So glad she's back in her element.
This is truly beautiful, I find it emotionally moving actually.
She does things only she can.

 

any detail pics of the SHOES (i am curious) and/ or HQ'S available? thanks!!
