Style Code: Wear Knit Forever!

3.MICHAEL BASTIAN £500
5. 3.1 PHILLIP LIM Crying Girl Jumper SOLD OUT
7. Jason Wu Stripe Cotton Knit Jumper $899
10.Kenzo WINDOW-CHECK SWEATER $655
17. Kenzo Tiger Embroidery Sweater SOLD OUT


 It's been quite clear that this is a SUPERXXLARGE OUTTA SPACIOUS winter for the time being.Fashion brands like Balenciage, ACNE,Stella McCartney, Celine, Comme des Garçons have swarmed to introduce their surrealistically oversize pieces as if it goes like "the bigger, the fitter."

From another aspect, however, not everyone has the courage or mental aura to rein those dramatic fashion dream. Therefore, as the progressive appearance of the all-sold-out KENZO Tiger Embroidery Sweaters and 3.1 Phillips Lim Ka-Pow Sweaters have taken over the fashion months' street snaps, we are pleasant to see a new developing style trend——wearing KNITWEARS !

Consisting of window-checks, stripes, pop art, or amusing  patterns. Rolled keeping warm, practicality, effortless chic, and unparalleled comfortability in one, knitwears provide us with idiosyncratic mood for wearing as well as body shape modification, which caters to the growing trend of minimalism.

As for most people with limited budget, choosing a qualified and suitable knitwear seems by means more than that of consuming a dog prints tee from Givenchy. To some extent, even if a J.W. Anderson for Topshop Sweater maintains its value more than an expensive ready-to-wear like the dog prints tee in season.

Street Style: girls in RED

Red can symbolize many things; from blood, to love, to infatuation.  Basically red symbolizes strong emotions, or things of strong emotions rather than intellectual ideas.  For example, red can symbolize excitement, energy, speed, strength, danger, passion, and aggression.

According to Henry Dreyfus, it is popularly felt that red, the color of blood and fire, represents life and vitality. Red also signifies the color of the sun: a symbol of energy, radiating its vitalizing life-force into human beings.

Street Style: COMME on Des Garçons!


Those outta spacious pieces from the Fall/Winter 2012 collections are surly still fresh in our mind! Especially, the conceptually incredible collection of Comme Des Garçons.To think from a different angle, however,there was a time when I was wondering who was gonna wear those cutout paper-dolliness pieces on the streets?! You may say "It must be Lady GaGa of course!" The fact just goes like this, but not entirely right!As to my astonishment, the first celebrity to wear the pieces from the collections was Taylor Tomasi Hill at NY Fashion Week, choosing a blue graphic parse shorts matching with a easy chic shirt, which completely changed my perspectives on the collection—— dramatic pieces are not only dramatic but also can be so effortless as well! Then it came to more fashionistas like Anna Dello Russo, Hanne Gaby Odiele,and Michelle Elie wearing the outfits from the collection with their distinct style, COMME on Des Garçons!
