When it comes to choosing designers for this series, I try to choose designers that I fit with my own aesthetic and style. Thom Browne is no execption. His designs are known to fall under a very preppy style but always with a twist.<\/p>\n

<\/a>This spring collection reminded a lot of the book The Night Circus by Erin Morgensten<\/a>. The book is about a circus, a duel, and a love story wrapped in one. Keeping in mind The Night Circus has a strict uniform of black and white, which is what attracted me to Thom Browne.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

To add confusion and make your head spin there were dancers in the background atop black and white spinners. Which makes me wonder if I was hypnotized to like this collection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Thom Browne’s collection leaves you unsure whether they are clothes or costumes. If you are into fashion you probably known that it is clearly a fashion statement.<\/p>\n

Alot like Lolita. There are vast misconceptions to people who are unfamiliar with the fashion that it is a costume. Often you have “It isn’t Halloween yet!” as a catcall.<\/p>\n

I decided to stick with a monochrome palette pairing a Beth by Victorian Maiden jumperskirt, with an H&M blouse.  The small dot pattern on the dress complement the unending stripes (but I think even if they were larger it wouldn’t make a difference). And the more I look at it, my head actually is reeling at the fact it does all fit somehow. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

With a black bowler hat and black and white striped socks, I think it would add a nice touch and be an excellent outfit to use for Dances of Vice: PhantasmaGorey<\/a> don’t you think?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
