Vogue helps Fachun

Fachun is Fashion. You know.
This year, after having a 'clothes reawakening' in my soul, I realized I didn't know what was going on at all in the latest designs. I don't consider it super important to always be caught up, but new seasons mean new inspiration. Being the super tech-y smart person I am, I just typed 'Spring/summer 2016' into Google and let it take me where it took me.
It took me to Vogue's website.
Have I been living in a hole? Why didn't I know that you can literally find any designer's stuff on here? So, yeah. That's what I've been doing. I was worried that I wouldn't have any ideas for fashion posts, now I'm worried that I have too many. Anyway, here is the first one that I absolutely loved.
Zimmermann-Pre  Ready-to-Wear
This collection can really be described only as pretty. Really pretty and delicate. I've never heard of Zimmermann before, actually, until I went on the website. Here are my thoughts;

1. Texture- if this collection has anything, it has texture. Flowery and flowing ruffles and stiff structured panels contrast terrifically. Filmy fabrics, sturdy beachy fabrics, and all other kinds of fabrics (I wish I knew the names of more) keep the muted color pattern from getting monotonous.

2. The Colors- There are few colors that I will never like. I thought I would always hate the color orange in fifth grade, and now I love it! While I'm usually more of a bright color kind of girl (think Kate Spade or Gucci) this muted palette is beautiful and flattering. These ruffles and patterns and designs would almost be too much if they had been placed in a color palette like that- the colors and the textures compliment each other. I also just really like the beachy aesthetic of it with the drift wood and almost swim-suit coverup aspect of some of the dresses.

3. This wasn't a perfect collection. While they might be nit-picky, there were a few things that I personally did not like. Some of the designs just went to far away from the main aesthetic to mix with the others. It didn't match.

 They match each other, but nothing else.
That was my main issue- the other was just my distaste for the beach hats. We get it. It's supposed to be summery. The hats just take it too far.

Besides that, it was a beautiful and pretty collection that kind of makes me wish we were back in St. Ignus by the beach.
Have a pretty day, readers.
