Denim

Denim from Céline SS11 <- vintage! (Colour block-Phillip Lim alternative)

Denim shirt from Acne (instagram) (similar here)

Denim, one of the longest lasting trends out there. No matter what type of denim you invest in, it should always
be a keeper. As seen above, the colour blocked denim done by Céline (Phoebe Philo) for their SS11 collection
is graphic yet sophisticated; casual yet elegant. Personally, I prefer the shirt on the right, as the balance of lights 
and darks are just right. 

Denim, can be worn in all seasons. Spring: a casual chambray shirt over a casual tee. Enough to keep you 
warm and stylish in the 'sometimes-chilly' spring. Summer: a sleeveless denim vest (varying in thickness)
to keep you cool and breezy under the hot sun. Fall: a chambray shirt again, to act as a layering piece. Wear a
lightweight trench over it, and a luxe-tee under it. Winter: invest in a thick denim biker jacket with black
leather (from ACNE here). Or, when the sun is out, wear a chambray top as a base, and put an oversized 
knit over.

Photos from A.Wang's SS13 Collection Campaign. 
Design: By me. Pencil on cartridge. 

A.Wang's SS13 collection was amazing. The use of fishline to attach various pieces of fabrics together creates 
a levitation effect. A.Wang managed to make the girls all so edgy and cool! Don't you think their campaign
is to die for? I was inspired by the attached fabrics, therefore I designed a look myself to resemble Wang's
aesthetic of SS13. The look I designed consists of a short deep V jacket with a tail, and a strapless white 
dress. I wanted the short sleeved jacket to stand out more, therefore I kept the white dress very simple. For 
the dress, the bust flaps are attached with fish line. The jacket has attached cap short sleeves, and a attached
tail piece. The symmetry is very A.Wang, and the different lengths creates more interest. I decided to pair 
this look with an edgy bootie, which also uses the fish-line technique to join the thick leather ankle strap.
