I discovered To Be Adored by complete fluke, rummaging around in Urban Outfitters when i spotted their summer collection which was just a mass of 60's inspired mini dresses with peter Pan collars and golden beads/studs/sequins on an array of silks in navy cream and peach. I fell inlust instantly and just wanted to find out more about the label..this research lead me to base a 2nd year project called DIRECTIONS on them. The brief was split into 2 parts: to create an outfit based on anything we wish...and then to find a company specific to the outfit we had created, a company in which our outfits could relate to in aesthetics, style and overall look. I chose to focus on the concession garments from T.B.A in Urban Outfitters stores, i felt the playful,chic and more specifically 60s style really fitted the latest T.B.A collection.
BinBin McNiven ( T.B.A designer) Has done it again and earlier on in the year released a magical AW 2010 Lookbook which
IS Adorable and makes me so excited for Autumn..my favourite time of year! The collection compliments autumn/Winter perfectly with black polkadot lace,golden tints,peach and emerald crushed velvets and crisp white. I think its a lovely follow on from the Spring Summer collection which was very feminine, chic yet still playful, but would be significally attracted to a certain type of sophisticated woman.. whereas this collection lookbook is shot with a young woman and has much more obvious childlike references with blown out balloon dresses and small details like, bows,little peter pan collars and hanging bobbles..
LOVE!
