sasha p.. what are you doing?! (fall 2010)
sonia rykiel 'the queen of knits' has been one of my beloved favourite designers ever since i watched fall 2008's show on youtube when i was around 12.. i was instantly drawn to it all.. you know? the beautiful oversized knit jumper dresses with swirls of pattern, those happy and giddy adorable models with cute smiles and poofy hair, lovely cream white bowler hats (also in black), quirky colour-blocked heeled sandals, stripy patterned tights, the colour palette that just consisted mainly of purple, black and white (sonia's sig, i believe) and don't forget those gorgeous rhinestone embellished dresses at the end of the show, where all the models danced and some which ended up falling over...i can go all day if you like! it was love at first sight..
i really love how all her collections are so full of youth and enthusiasm..all poured into a gigantic bucket mixed together. they all have the oohlala french girl element and the typical grace of parisian chic (voila berets). sonia rykiel knows what women and girls want to wear; she concentrates and mainly focuses on the fabric/material, shape,texture,cutting and all that jazz with so much passion and dedication. (well, the woman was a victim of consumer goods once before.. when there wasn't any soft knits for her 40 years or so ago!) it's the reason why it does so much wonder and that's why her lovely chiffon/silk dresses are the dream of young girls playing dress up with red lipstick all over their faces and those way-too-big heels..
i worship you with all my heart. biggest fan sonia! really! yeah!
