Love it with the yellow pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-i-love-this--its-interesting#post-743187 Tue, 09 Oct 2012 00:17:57 +0000 Jonesy 743187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jacket is from the fall 2012 RTW show by Comme des Garcons (designer is Rei Kawakubo). The collection made a big splash (pardon the pun). First pic below is from the show, later pics are street style shots from the recent shows, of fashion types wearing pieces from the collection. Cool stuff! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-i-love-this--its-interesting#post-743101 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 22:47:45 +0000 Mochi 743101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deborah! I have a black silk antique kimono too! (kind of challenging to style, aren't they?) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-i-love-this--its-interesting#post-743098 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 22:46:55 +0000 Diana 743098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oddly enough (odd since I love red normally) I think I'd like this better in another color. It's a really cool concept but I keep seeing "cardinal" (the Catholic kind, not the avian kind).</p> <p>ETA: Love her shades though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-i-love-this--its-interesting#post-743096 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 22:45:27 +0000 Deborah 743096@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I find this very appealing, AND she is wearing a pretty low heeled shoe! Mochi, Now I want to get out my black silk Japanese Kimono and wear it over my jeans today! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-i-love-this--its-interesting#post-743084 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 22:37:12 +0000 Caro in Oz 743084@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it in the second pic more - I should love it - it's architectural &amp; not black - but I don't know why it isn't speaking to me. Food for thought here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-i-love-this--its-interesting#post-742843 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 19:25:16 +0000 cciele 742843@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A yay from me too -- love the color, the volume, the structured drape. </p> <p>Here's a photo of the coat worn open -- looks more like a trapeze in this pic:<br /> <a href="http://www.harpersbazaar.com/fashion/fashion-articles/giovanna-battaglia-little-red-riding-hood-paris-fashion-week-street-style-spring-2013#slide-79" rel="nofollow">http://www.harpersbazaar.com/f.....3#slide-79</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-i-love-this--its-interesting#post-742837 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 19:16:06 +0000 bj1111 742837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i love it! the volume is so on trend. despite having so much fabric, the coat drapes well and does not swamp her.</p> <p>totally a do for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-i-love-this--its-interesting#post-742798 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 18:28:57 +0000 CocoLion 742798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote yay, there is something Japanese about this coat. And the reflecting red sunglasses complete the look.</p> <p>(The string thing hanging down reminds me of a formal Japanese men's robe. Or maybe Korean?) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-i-love-this--its-interesting#post-742794 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 18:21:36 +0000 Mama Susie 742794@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried on a similiar coat not that long ago at Nordstrom Rack... I'm sure not the same coat but similiar with that sort of outline of a coat, coat. Does that makes sense? LOL. Anyways it looked ridiculous on me. Very ridiculous. On her it's not bad. I really love the color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-i-love-this--its-interesting#post-742769 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 17:47:16 +0000 Thistle 742769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There is definately a divide between a designer's art and what I want to wear.</p> <p>I second rachylou, i vote the coat off the island. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-i-love-this--its-interesting#post-742752 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 17:22:47 +0000 rachylou 742752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't understand the garment. Can't make out its lines. What is that string hanging down her shoulder?</p> <p>I'm going to have to vote the coat off the island... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-i-love-this--its-interesting#post-742707 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 16:45:07 +0000 Ariadne 742707@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it--on her. Who is it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-i-love-this--its-interesting#post-742682 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 16:19:15 +0000 Sylvie 742682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a lot of volume on the sleeve with the flanges that stick out. Color is great but somehow, yeah, it's overwhelming. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-i-love-this--its-interesting#post-742650 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 15:24:30 +0000 Mochi 742650@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the designers need normal people like us to rein them in sometimes--they can get out of control! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-i-love-this--its-interesting#post-742647 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 15:21:26 +0000 Janet 742647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know what you mean. I find it interesting and I love the boldness, but I feel a little bit like a Project Runway judge -- IMO there's a little too much going on in that coat, like it would have benefitted from a little editing. </p> <p>Yeah, like I'm a fashion designer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-i-love-this--its-interesting#post-742642 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 15:17:30 +0000 Mochi 742642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>But truly different. Architectural for sure. Love the color. The shoes are fantastic!</p> <p><a href="http://images.thesartorialist.com/thumbnails/2012/10/93012GB6294Web1.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://images.thesartorialist......94Web1.jpg</a></p> <p>In fact there are many looks of hers I *don't* like...it's just that for me, when she's on, she's SO on. </p>
