And I'm not a huge Manish Arora fan myself (kitsch is not one of my favourite things), but I do appreciate the drama in his clothes when he reins it in just a bit (like he did for his AW07 collection in London)- <BR/>http://lemontartletsandwinegums.blogspot.com/2007/02/wow.html<BR/>I reckon he's a taste I have yet to acquire properly..<BR/><BR/>Perakath: Ooops, should've clarified that..when I said we, I meant him as well as me (I am from Cal after all)- didn't realise it could be interpreted that way.<BR/><BR/>Susie: I didn't know he was getting wider distribution across Europe..good for him. And you hit the nail on the head, it's exactly why I like his clothes so much. Though I personally don't believe they'd have as much character had he been from another place, the casualness (word?) of the whole thing looks a bit like Little Edie might, if she did the ethnic route (I know it's an overplayed reference, but here it seems to fit). <BR/>Elisabeth: Part of my love for the clothes comes from the fact that they have such an attitude. And thanks for the award :)<BR/>Meg: I know, the red scarf is a bit..arresting, isn't it? I've been batty about his clothes for the last five years, it's nice to see people agreeing with me about it.Blue Floppy Hathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13924517166595597734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4999120180171025160.post-80190236384984222232008-01-03T09:00:00.000-08:002008-01-03T09:00:00.000-08:00You've absolutely ruined me, I am now definately g...You've absolutely ruined me, I am now definately going to be obsessing about the first SS07 outfit with the red scarf.

A little too theatrical for a minimalist like me, I suppose.rizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09889071198159171775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4999120180171025160.post-8792636139297510242008-01-02T21:35:00.000-08:002008-01-02T21:35:00.000-08:00I agree with the clothes horse - especially with t...I agree with the clothes horse - especially with those striped socks.
