TV's autumn/winter 2011 collection nothing but flowers projects a very specific mood which i feel very appropriate right now: modern yet vintage, conservative yet flaccid. it of course did not escape my attention when tribute jakarta first announced the sacred arrival of these pieces in town, but they feel compatible now more than ever, somehow. perhaps the bold stripes and the prada-esque ambience overcrowding almost the whole stretch of the year had begun to take its toll on me, and this harmonious hodgepodge of fluorescent shades, sober palettes, and couch-y floral patterns that didn't seem to make much sense before now suggests a tempting, if not perfect alternative to blanket myself in this tiring season...
they look unduly great when being put together, indeed, but i think each item also makes a promising standalone piece: dandy graphic in sandy knit, short circle skirt in a very sight-quenching shade of neon lime, sedated button down shirt in a magnified liberty pattern, and a neat ropey knot. i would not mind spending time slouching and living comfortably in looks number 2, 3, and 6 while uttering a bunch of see-you-soons to all my stripes and vivid fabrics in the meantime...
