WOTTONCOOL

While lately, the women have been rummaging into the men’s wardrobe, it seems that the men ought to take a cue or two from the ladies!

Lanvin’s Men’s Spring 2008 collection had some curvy silhouettes and tailoring that were more characteristic of women’s wear. I like thattt!

Floppy hats with flowers, ruched blazers, pintucked tops, tie strappy sandals, bubble sleeves, thick cable knits in pretty colours like mauve (how the hell do you pronounce this colour?), velour/velvet suits, bold corsages, and are those loose leggings/slinky slim pants?! I NEED THOSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’m not sure if the that female feel is that prevalent here, but I love Viktor & Rolf’s collection too.

The most vibrant garlands, coral and mint colours, unexpected print clashes, slim fits and the sudden oversized slouchy jacket, tiny man-shorts…

Oh and hello, Viktor/Rolf lookalike!

I meant to post this quite some time ago…. but yea.

Coco Rocha and Brad Kroenig for G2000!

I first saw the ad campaigns on a bus, which sped by me at probably 60km/h in the early morning when I was still woozy-zleepy. That girl sure looked like Coco Rocha.

The second time, I saw it splashed across a bus too, but this time at the bus stop too. Okay, so it can’t be a Hong Kong model I don’t know who has undergone lots of plastic surgery (or photoshop?) to resemble Coc Rocha.

Then it hit,

WTF IT IS COCO ROCHA!

Right after that I’ve been seeing it in magazines and advertisement boards and allll over the place.

It is just so incongruous with the Chanel Pre-Fall 2008 Campaign.

I don’t know about you, but whenever I see Raquel Zimmermann’s name I feel like I have to say her surname with such verve and velocity, like ZIMMERMANN!!! (If you know what I mean, haha)

But couple her (decked out in the most gorgeous of dresses) with decathlete Bryan Clay and you really have fashion hurtled to the heights of the heavens and depths of the sea! Very wonderfully shot by Mario Testino.

It’s great to see so much movement and energy captured in a still, and that you can see it in so many places in a single frame - the hair, the tensed up muscles, the way the fabric trails behind…

(Psst, grab her glorious and speedy suede gladiator sandals from Calvin Klein!)

I love the Lanvin dress in the last picture. I already looked stunning on the runway (though I wasn’t keen on the dramatic, deep-coloured make up - think it takes away too much from the clothes!) but pictured like this, it’s literally breath-taking.

I don’t like exercising much. Not unless I can look as picturesque as this everytime (hur hur!).
