For several years now, designer Alexander Wang has been a favourite of mine. Modern femininity, clean lines and a fabulous balance and play of textures.
I know what you're thinking: "Ha! Not everyone can wear this!"; "The model looks amazing - just look at how long those legs are!!!!!" Well, that's true. Nevertheless it's fabulous inspiration!
The classic tailored pleat shorts are brilliantly juxtaposed with the street-style hooded parka... of course those boots finish the look to perfection. Mixing texture is key to great style.
And the centre fringe on the dress and top is genius! It's a great way to draw the eye to a line, elongating the body. The garments fabric works well here too, because it doesn't cling. Just remember to stick to shapes that suit your body best.
Wang, you've done it again!
