My Favorite Fall/Winter '08 Looks So Far

I'll start with the best, which is Chanel, of course.
(Video is of the Fall/Winter Haute Couture line fashion show.)

Can you believe this is Claudia Scheiffer in a wig? Words can't describe how much I love this look. Chanel always pulls out the best for fall/winter.


I LOVE when Burberry steps away from London hubbub and bright lights and pulls out the black and white, romantic ads.
You may recognize Sam Riley from Control (the Joy Division movie).



ANNA SUI
I love the mood of this photograph. The colors are all so rich and decadent, whereas the clothes themselves reach back into the folk art movement. I can really appreciate Anna Sui, although I don't think I would necessarily wear these outfits (and especially not those leggings, which remind me of high school girls wearing heavily patterned leggins in an attempt to "mix it up" or become more "alt").

PHI
Burlesque chic.


Dolce & Gabana...always overflowing with creativity. Fall/Winter '08 is all about deep colors, an elegant earthiness... These two adds really speak to both sides of the coin. Again, the folk art movement coming back with some of the clothing below. But notice how the second ad takes the same sort of "stormy" vibe and transplants that to the city. These city girls look edgier than the people in the first ad, but are somehow rooted in the same abstract place as the first. Brilliant.



LONGCHAMP...Always classy & romantic. Kate Moss at her finest.
