Paris Fashion Week Takes Flight

The Fall/Winter 2008 ready-to-wear preview in Paris (which began as a seemingly uninspired "who can make the most God awful creations" event) has blossomed into a "can't take my eyes of it" event. Particularly impressive are the layering choices, color combinations, and clean lines (often fused with unruly edges). Look closely enough, and these creations will start to look less like ready-to-wear and more like birds of a feather. Feast your eyes on this flock:


Roksanda Ilincic - Fall/Winter 2008

Rick Owens - Fall/Winter 2008

Vivienne Westwood - Fall/Winter 2008

This is awesome! How did you find all of those birds to match?? Did you have to Google things like "blue bird with frilly thingys on its head?"
