Lar and I have been big Tim Walker fans well before Juicy Couture got a hold of him. Sure all of his work has an over abundance of fantasy, tulle and giant props leaning up against a manor house interior wall, but he brings a fresh level of creativity to every project. For example, his most recent editorial with Italian Vogue:
See the rest of the editorial at The Fashion Time blog.
As much as I would love to be able to wear deconstructed Marie Antoinette wigs and flouncy tutus, the impracticality of those items force me to find cheaper, more everyday-like clothing on Polyvore. All the items below are under $100 and a watered-down version of the Tim Walker spread. My favorite find is this pair of shoes from Modekungen – I wonder if they ship to the U.S. I have no idea how I’d wear them, but they’re delightfully weird.
The weather is finally warming up here in Atlanta so I didn’t even include a jacket in this set. But come to think of it, I should have probably included an umbrella. It seems like it’s been raining every other day here.
Rouched Tube Dress by Rare**, $78
Asymetric Frill Front Vest, $65
Petite Scallop Lace Vest Body, $50
Gold Jacquard Skirt, 28 GBP
Disheveled Mini Skirt, $20

March 19th, 2010 at 12:01 pmSomeone needs to do a massive jackets post. I want to find some new ones, but I am struggling for where to look. F21′s are often for very short people.

March 19th, 2010 at 2:47 pmI have to say, I don’t care for those shoes, but, I do really like the pink ruffly flats. You mean that you don’t walk around in tutus all the time? You’re totally missing out.

March 21st, 2010 at 10:18 pmTim Walker is my absolute favourite! I have a poster of his photo of Lily Cole in that gorgeous blue Dior dress on a spiral staircase in my room. Stunning. He definitely lives in a Wonderland of sorts.

Outfit of the Week: Patti Smith, Fashion Icon — AsianCajuns Says:
March 24th, 2010 at 11:57 pm[...] can’t think of a lady whose style is more unlike our last three Outfits of the Week (Tim Walker-esque, Happy-Go-Lucky and Unabashedly Girlie). Patti’s style is also the most unlike my own, but I [...]
