Fashion Distraction: 3.1 Philip Lim Fall 2009
April 27th, 2009 by crystal
Philip Lim’s Fall 2009 show was so much FUN! Inspired by 60’s rock, the designs were reminiscent of the Beatles, Mick Jagger and Jimi Hendrix. The models sported 60’s style bob haircuts while Lizzie Trullie played 60’s tribute music. A theme this specific could become more of a costume show than a fashion show, but Lim’s designs updated 60’s fashion to make it desirable for today’s woman. From more conservative suits to youthful minis, there’s really something for everyone with this line. A very on-trend one shoulder dress followed by a house dress and goat hair jacket show the extent of diversity in this line. And, the best thing about Philip Lim’s designs are their affordability. That, of course, is why he hasn’t been hit hard (if at all) by the recession. I’m glad economic stress didn’t interfere with the creativity of this line! Check it out!
