Daily Designer






Refinery29 posted this a while ago and this suit has been haunting my mind. The line is called Reality Studio and sadly, as far as I can tell, is not yet available in the states. Not that I need one, but here's another brilliant reason to visit Berlin. The Berlin based line sited a trip to Morocco as being the main inspiration for their current Spring '08 collection of boxy shirts, fringed headbands, and harem pants. They put this inspiration to good use in the re-working of the suit especially- the pants are cropped and full- a perfect counterpoint to a shrunken tuxedo jacket.
Looking through their past collections it seems this season the line is reaching a new height and as long as they continue with their downsizing (mounds and mounds of fabric and heavy draping in past collections looked too sloppy) they will be a favorite of mine and I'll continue to be on the look out for their U.S. debut.
