in case you were not aware of

besides the candidate debates, wall street bailout, ramadhan and pakistan terror attacks, the past few weeks is fashion week. the mood seemed sombre in the fashion capitals; color pallette was kept mainly monochromatic, nothing truly outrageous came out. but a few things caught my attention.

stefano pilati for YSL
(note the fitting tribute to le smoking. a simple collection,
but very beautiful in my eyes)

dries van noten
(pattern composition)

yohji yamamoto
(superb avant garde contsruction)

prada
(not as good as before, but intriguing still)



uni is starting again. sigh. i'll be out of comission for a month.
