Serenity rules


Just when I make a plea for less 'fierce', a bit of tenderness to return to fashion, then up steps my favourite designer and delivers. In a collection where the clothes do the talking (styling aesthetics were parred right back) Marc Jacobs gave us his bare aesthetics in terms of cut and colour.





When it comes to clothes I need serenity, I love it when clothes flow and these are real forever wardrobe friends. The fact Somewhere over the Rainbow was playing adds my real emotion about this collection. Mr MDS can testify that I even cry to Tom Waits's version of it. If only I'd been there.

I love that Jacobs has capture a mood and a need in his collection. He has judged well on the time for refinement and stillness.

  1. I watched it on You Tube this morning, felt like a real saddo, it felt so emotional and the clothes were beautiful. Why did I never think about a career in fashion when I was young - its not fair!

    Meraldia - the whoel collection is wonderful but yes there are some pieces that stand out more than others.
