I've just recently discovered Helmut Lang, and I wonder where he has been all my life! Seriously, this line is everything I want my style to be: minimal, neutral, slouchy, drapey, somewhat androgynous.
I fell hard for this jacket online: I like the idea of a bomber jacket, but just hadn't seen one that really appealed to me until this one. The neutral colors, slouchy fit, and luxurious fabric were just what I was looking for.
It's available in a taupey mushroom gray, and a pale pearl gray, and I couldn't decide, so I ordered both colors, not even knowing if the jacket would work for me or not.
Well, I love the jacket, and will be keeping one of them, but which one? The pale gray is really pretty, and is better for summer, and it is a semi-sheer lightweight jacket, so it makes sense in a summery color, but I also love the darker taupe/gray color, and it goes with so many of my other clothes.
I think either of these will go with everything from jeans to dresses, and should be a versatile addition to my wardrobe.
Any thoughts about which one I should keep, or styling ideas? Thanks in advance for your help!
1-4: Pale gray jacket- it was kind of hard to photograph because it comes out looking white, but really it is a light gray.
Also debuting the Kamalikulture black dress, which I LOVE, and Eileen Fisher caged wedge sandals.
5-6 Taupe/gray version of the same jacket, with Eileen Fisher slouchy silk pants, Helmut Lang tank.
