Those Masks, though

Maison Martin Margiela, Fall 2012 Couture No matter how much time has passed, and how many new collections appear and re-interpretations come along, there is something about this specific Couture collection from years ago that still speaks volumes to me.

A Study in Prints

The Burberry Runway Womenswear show will always, always, have a very special place in my heart, as it was the first runway show I had the opportunity of attending.
