So Fall 2011 Fashion Week has already started, I'm not so sure how it happened so quickly, (Spring 2011 feels like a month ago) all those cool cats (Mum word) in the fashion industry just need to take a deep breath and calm down a little. 

Vena Cava


Vena Cava was pretty great, the prints were spot on and cooperated with the wool textures really well. I really liked the proportions of the skirt-jumper combos and shoes were pretty ok. They also had short skirts but I guess I subconsciously avoided them when making this collage thing on Piknik.

 Steven Alan



Steven Alan was like boring? It just felt like a magazine shoot by some publication like InStyle or a SHOP til you drop 'Weekend' special. The clothes would be really fun to layer though, but the styling in the show didn't really feel special.

Rachel Comey


This show was quite good, there was a big variety of prints some of which I liked. The African one was a bit off but it kind of worked in the outfit? (pic 4.) There was also one that reminded me of clouds and feathers, but in a kind of harsh way? It didn't really look soft but maybe that was the point? I don't know. Also what was with the hair? Someone trying to be 'edgy' by doing a mullet? The last picture is amusing me by looking like a toupee.

Peter Som



Peter Som was pretty Ok, there were feathers and sequins and other 'luxurious' materials but it was put together in quite a casual way. Which I kind of liked. This show wasn't my favourite that he has done but it was still pretty effective.

Anyway back to my real life, back to reality.
