The detail in the jacket is INCREDIBLE!
Finale.
Duckie Brown's S/S show was absolutely incredible. It was so minimalist, modern, and edgy, all my favorite things. Most people looking at the collection were perplexed about why the colors were not the typical "Summer" colors, but thats exactly why I loved it. It was actually good that the colors were more neutral then a crazy, saturated ones because the detail in the fabrics and the cuts and lines of the clothing were the statement in the collection, not the colors or embezzlements. For example the beautiful tan perforated jacket. It is simple in terms of color and its classic shape but its intricate and different based on the choice of fabric. But what stood out the most for me in the collection was that stripes were a main focus. The lines were so classic and so modern. The way they used incorporated the lines in different articles of clothing was genius, from Bjorn Borg short shorts to a classic car coat. I can definite see myself in the spring wearing most of this collection (especially the Florsheim shoes!).
