I don't know how, I don't know why. All I know is that I fell asleep for 6 minutes on the floor mid-bite a Triscuit and woke up with my hand in a cup of paint water and having dreamed about THAT Balenciaga line.
Someone needs to explain.
Anyway, I'm quite happy I had this absurd dream because I forgot how much I loved this collection and had fun revisiting it and being an insomniac. When I went through the photos at style.com saving the ones to add to a collage I ended up saving I think all but 3 of them...narrowing it down was quite a chore, and I still had to make 2 collages. Whatevs, it's amazing, that's all that matters.
There were way more different looks in the collection (shiny pencil pants, for example) but these collages were more for my favorites and less for the sake of presenting the collection in an all-inclusive matter. I didn't really dig the pantaloons but show me structured dresses with the pattern of curtains your aunt from Miami has hanging by her Beach Sweet Beach sign and slightly unsettling family portrait in which her son's facial expression indicates he may have a stick up his butt?
Smitten indeed.
(For the record, I do not have that aunt.)
The oversized seams, the huge flowers, the intricate paneling, the TOTALLY KOOKY AND SEIZURE-GIVING boots-
You know what?
No.
NO.
I'm done. This is too much.
I'm done.
Way too epic, I cannot handle it in this state.
Okay?
OKAY?

i like you for your insomnia.

<3
You must be a real fashion freak, even dreaming about Balenciaga!!
U r insane!!! Haha that's good :)
Chilllllllllll.
I guess that's what happens when you post at 4AM. By the way, those boots... amazing. They do need a warning label, though, because I think you were right in you assumption that they may be seizure inducing. But who cares? -kimberleighROSE

Well, that's a long sentence without pointations and commas! Take care!

i demand a silkscreened poster of this entire diatribe
At the house where I celebrate passover, the mom always lets my sister and I eat the afikomen even though we're the oldest. The other kids are ages, like, 0-4 so they just like looking for the afikomen, they don't actually care about eating it.
ok. follow me.. breathe in.. breathe out.. breathe in.. breathe out.. That goes to too much fashion. Haha Well, where would designers like them be without fashionists like us? Chillax Kiddo..^^
Tavi. Calmz Downz.
haha.
i think i did a similar thing when i saw the Mcqueen show where the model rode out on a horse like Rapunzel...
IT'S GOING TO BE OKAY.
and one day when you're an awesome fashion editor/elementary school teacher/circus performer with coolio tights you can buy this whole collection.
tavi, seriously when you grow up you're gonna have the best job ever! I'm 11 and my dream job includes many slashes as well: teacher/author/illustrator/artist/ children's school librarian. just take a guess- do you think i like reading? loved the super paragraph sentence! :)
GAH!
The Balenciaga line is breath-taking, and I need me some seizure-giving boots. BAD.
And I know what you mean. When something is so epic, such as the afore mentioned Balenciaga collection, I feel the need to scream out all emotions and thoughts on various subjects. Strange? Maybe, but its beyond my power to control it. Besides, it entertains those around me.
Great post, Tavi! ;)
Wonderful post Tavi!
And speaking of the impeached and hopefully soon to be ex- Governor Blago, I thought you might be interested in these links:

I ADORE YOU!! :) :) :)
breathe.
Wow...
Those are cute dresses though.
someday i will be able to afford balenciaga. some day i'll be a millionare. me and you tavi. we'll show them with their seizure boots and epic dresses. ha.
xx
Don't kill me, but Balenciaga just isn't my thing. But you remind me of James Joyce.
you are fabulouseee !
you are fabulouseee !
Agreed, that Balenciaga line = fabulousness. I wish I could afford some of it - it's like my dream come true, haha.
seriously, i would do the same thing to get some idina menzel charms on me lmao.
and i love kathy griffin too. every year, i watch the new years show with her and anderson cooper. yes, that anderson cooper. i die laughing everytime anderson blushes.
i always thought the spring 08/09 dresses would make my perfect prom dress. it's a mix of pretty in pink and...well, me.
i was trying to remember what those dresses reminded me of, and you hit the nail right on the head. well, that and old floridian-lady mumus. made me flash back to the beach in fort lauderdale. my favorite descricption of blagoyavichs hair was a backwards toupe.
Youre so fun. I love how you write.
You & I both have been dream living in a land of secret gardens, Balenciaga prints, and happy colors.
I guess its the mid winter grey tone blues.
we must not forget Dries van notens florals either!
xo
