Thimister Couture

Josephus Thimister showed a Fall 2010 (yes, this one is ahead of the pack somewhat) collection with strong references to Russia, bloodshed and the military. It was an interesting and captivating collection which defied all "rules" of traditional couture. The brilliant red used throughout was spellbinding, a colour that is sure to be prominent next Fall. Despite the obvious association to war, the collection also had a romantic quality, making me dream of dashing through snow covered woods to meet a forbidden lover.

It is definitely time to make a trip to the army surplus store.
