We normally try to discover a purse or at least something handbag-related for our want It Wednesday series, however sometimes, even the most ardent of bag enthusiasts gets distracted by all of the other wonders that the fashion world has to offer. Today, I’m absolutely captivated by the Proenza Schouler autumn 2011 behind-the-scenes pictures by Tommy heap over at Jak & Jil, particularly this one of a design in a deceptively basic blanket-print dress.
Looking carefully at the workmanship as well as material craft that goes into the typical Proenza gown makes me question why people spend so much money on other brands. Jack McCollough as well as Lazaro Hernandez, Proenza Schouler’s founders, are as seriously devoted to the art of textiles in addition to they are to perfecting their garment style skills, as well as from spring 2011’s guipure lace to the thick, woven Western prints you see here, they’ve taken on a few of the most tough as well as time-intensive artisanal jobs in the material business. The results always need an in-person checking out if in any way possible, as well as I still discover myself stunned at exactly how much work goes into one dress.
This gown won’t be offered up until late summer, however you can search Proenza Schouler’s present offerings by means of Net-a-Porter.
