Some more F/W 11 Favs- Gareth Pugh, Rodarte, Veronica Leroy

I was writing an epic long dissertation on my blogging crises on this post and then realized it was totally irrelevant to the pictures below and that the spewage of my neuroses is better put on an altogether separate post, so, um, expect that next!? In the meantime, here are some beautiful pictures!

GARETH PUGH



I can't tell you how bad I want these leggings.






Also, these leggings. (dies)
Whoa. No words.



This Gareth Pugh collection blew me away. Goth. Glam. Gold. Armor. Those are the words that pop into my head. I loved the vibrant rudimentary blue. It was flowy and feminine enough to contrast with the strong gold architectural jackets and leather. How stunning is this all gold outfit? I would throw a party and dress the best go-go dancer in that ensemble, set her in the middle of the dance floor on a stage, and shine a spotlight on her so she can be the live disco ball. That's what I would do. ^.~


RODARTE

This look, and the similar look in black, is actually my favorite of this collection. It's simple but compelling, seeing that the skirt is sheer makes me want to find out what is worn underneath. I also like it because I look at runway photos because it inspires me to think of how I can recreate a similar look without the luxury price tag.
I also love everything about this look, and the model is perfect for it!







The way the dress moves is amazing. I advise everyone to look at the video link on style.com where it shows the look in motion! I imagine wearing this dress solely to walk around swiftly in and feel the fabric billow and swish around.


Veronique Leroy
I'm totally in love with the glasses and will be searching for the perfect thrift store replica. And how amazing is that coat?
I love the dowdy vintage librarian look to this. It is awesome anti-fashion.
