The Proenza Schouler spring show was the perfect way to end my New York fashion week experience. The whole thing came and went in a flash and I still couldn’t believe that I barely made it in before they closed the doors. It was the fastest/shortest show I saw all week and I was left wanting more and more. The clothes themselves were of course, unbearably cool. It evolved from a jacket tied non-chalantly around the hips to amazing acid print feathered cocktail dresses with a pit stop at the surf shop in between. All the necessary components to make the collection bold, youthful and “of-now”.
In the end all that remains in my mind are big strokes of color.
Big BEAUTIFUL strokes of color.
Yellow-orange lips at Prada’s spring 2005 show.
The clumsy/geometric eyeshadow is totally best. I might be inspired to wear it like that.
Perfect colors to brighten up a dreary winter day.
As the 00’s inexplicably draw to an end, I’ve started thinking about all the things that happened in this decade. The Strokes were my total favorites when I was a freshman in college and now their first record Is this It? is tinged with all sorts of crazy memories and different vibes. I always think of sunshine. It always makes me happy.
Please Note:
This song is awesome.
Look at how skinny Nick’s legs were!
And OMG Julian singing and smoking, god he was such the DUDE.
