Korto and Joe
I LOVED this jacket, I just love when Korto isn't afraid to bring lush color and luxe fabrics to the runway - this is just fab in my eyes! I also love that they decided to bring up the hem of the jacket to make it more proportional, and styled the belt at the natural waist to make it a bit more flattering, instead of low-slung on her hips. Those sleeves - fullness done right! It's bohemian, it's chic, and it would look amazing on Brooke - win win win. Now... the dress they got a bit lost. It was blatantly clear that there were execution problems, which leads me to ask the question, "Why not make it a simple tube dress?" It is extremely difficult to make a stretch fabric hug the body like it should, while still leaving an open back, and I'm surprised that neither Korto nor Joe thought of this beforehand. When I mentioned in the beginning of this blog that "some of them had pieces that were executed flawlessly, but then were paired with a supporting piece that just kind of look half-assed"...this is the one I was thinking about. Overall a fantastic statement piece - assuming that jacket stays ON!
