You cannot deconstruct unless you know how to construct. - Alexander McQueen

Elvish Tanya Dziahileva permalink

Tanya is a Belarusian model that has been very popular over the past couple of seasons. Her strength lies in the the ability to morph easily from Pre-Raphaelite fantasy - heavy on the nostalgic view of nature - to Chobit, a modern fantasy dreamed up by CLAMP.

Favorites from Milan Fashion Week permalink

Reviewing the s/s 2007 shows from Milan was an educational exercise, pushing past the standard reports on Versace, Prada, Gucci, Armani, Fendi, Ferragamo, etc. Despite being severely limited by knowing only one language, I made an effort to find more complete coverage. Favorites include well-known labels like Missoni and Bottega Veneta as well as some precious gems like Amuleti J obtained through a little mining.
