Salasai at NZFW










I know i'm late but I've got no followers so I think no one will really notice. Salasai was on my top three list of best shows - I thought the exposition of androgyny played well into the aesthetic Salasai has become well known for. Kirsha also showed her mastery in her innate ability to use modern and industrial fabrics which showed itself in tartan ponchos and maxi's, print on print suits and drop crotch pants - a staple for any Salasai wearer. I thought the menswear was incredible - navy shorts were matched with check shirts with navy sleeves, while more delicate looks included short sheer shirts and tartan pants. The knitwear was amazing as well; an ode to cashmere in all in luxe glory. It was perfect mix of romantic gothicism and punk edginess, with the softness still present. It made me, or anyone for that matter, wanna be a Salasai boy or girl.

Girls dressed as boys

Girls dressed as boys get me every single time. I think it's that perfect mix of feminine and masculine, with just a hint of sexy. Boys dressed as girls, not so much. Just to show how perfect it works, here are some shots from LOVE issue Four featuring Dree Hemingway, Hannah Holman and Veruschka von Lehndorff in very masculine looking clothing

I always love a good stripe

Reasons why I love stripes:
  • They are so chic and effortless
  • Paired well, they can be a multi-seasonal garment
  • It's a new season trend, especially the pyjama stripe
