An Outfit



Shirt: Barneys Co-op
Jacket: DKNY
Skirt: American Apparel (cut)
Boots: Frye
Cuff links, tie, and tights: Mother's closet

This outfit was inspired by a trend that I noticed: men's suit jackets. I particularly like the over sized exaggerated jackets out of less structured materials. I was reading an interview in i-D with the Comme des Garcons designer Junya Watanabe about his menswear line, and the author mentioned in passing that Ann Hollander said the reason why menswear "does not move on from the suit, because the suit is the most perfect garment ever created for either men or women." Interesting.
