Mike Lavarez Holiday 2011 collection

i love!!

If there's a collection this Holiday 2011 which is closest to my heart , it would be Mike Lavarez's . The pieces almost spoke to me , making me remember how I started being interested in fashion. It was the time when DIY is almost everywhere and ripping pants and shredding shirts are like the most important thing in the world. But Mike Lavarez , being a cerebral and artsy designer , made a thin line between DIY and design.. Grungy may be the first impression but as the show went on, you'll understand a clearer and deeper vision. Its a mix of urban and sportswear . The play of soft drapes , the loose tank tops with random appendages which is multi functional , and unusual patterns make me even more admire his work because his pieces still have a "basic" feel in it.
