PS, i love you.

i've been totally uninspired the past few months, for whatever reason. i've had major writer's block and spent most of that time in a deep, dark bubbling pit of despair. well, not quite despair but you get the point. conveniently, i'm back just in time to cover fashion week, how about that?

strangely, it was whilst browsing through today's shows that i realised how much i missed slating over-hyped designers and praising the underrated. but mostly proenza schouler, if i'm honest. so many times have i flicked through their collections filled with dismay, wondering why anna wintour was giving these guys so many Vogue inches. but this new fall 2011 collection has me convinced, finally. i always thought they were one of those brands that magazine editors jumped on the bandwagon with, no matter how truly awful their shows were. but this fall collection, well, observe:








i mean, where do i start? i LOVE the little alber elbaz influences in here, naturally. the 90's aztec prints kill me and that calvin klein-esque high neckline in the last shot, oh man. it's so rachel from friends, i can't get enough of it. you excelled yourself this time, proenza schouler.
