f/w 2009 part 9

SINHA-STANIC
ingenious cuts and gorgeous fabric dyeing here. i wish it wasn't with the rust-red (bleh) doc martens but still, wow. the dyed effect on the middle outfit is especially lovely, as is the draped-yet-high neckline. nice, yet modest, peek of the midriff, too.

ARMAND BASI ONE
i know we're all going to OD on studs by the end of summer but i really like it and this is done simply and effectively. going to have to disagree on the shoes again... sorry, but i'm not buying this creeper trend. it wasn't very cute in my teenage 'punk' years and it's not any better now. oh, and black is always the new black. do not forget.

ABAETE
UM, GORGEOUS. from the one-shoulder zipper top (!) to the perfectly uneven-tiered tank (!!) and the hey-i-can-patterndraft-that origami skirt (!!!), i love it. very on-point as far as the season's trends go, but since when is that a bad thing? LOVE!
