Viktor and Rolf Say NO to Fashion

Her eyes may say "yes" but her clothes say "no". And "dream" and "wow".

The Fall 2008 Ready-to-Wear Collection from Viktor & Rolf literally incorporates the word "no" into much of their new collection. Other pieces say "dream", "dream on" and even "wow". The words appear in various forms: sequined, sewn into them and even constructed in 3D. The new collection also makes use of gold staples which , although sounding odd, look fabulous.

As a stationery designer, I think this is FABULOUS....sort of a walking note card. And the dream coat would ensure plenty of room for the wearer on the subway, bus or elevator. LOVE IT!

I love the 08 Spring Summer collection. It makes me want to be a girl EVEN more. haha! But I'll stick with me being male and a fashionista for now.
I completely ADORE the gold staples. The way the glittered as the girls walked...perfect.

Thank you for this blog. I'm glad someone else loves the collection as well.
