2016 has been the warmest winter on record!  While we have all been enjoying this weather, which no doubt makes a great opportunity for short sleeves and legging-free legs, let’s take a moment and think about the bigger issue at stake.  But don’t listen to me… listen to Leo 🙂

I’ve always gravitated towards clean, asymmetrical lines, and this J.W. Anderson top is everything that describes my style aesthetic – minimalistic with a sculptural shape and incredible texture.  I wish you can feel the weight of this fabric!  The feel of textiles to me is like fine foods on the palette – soft fibers of cotton and density of heavy wool gives me a similar euphoric experience as crunch of a crust and velvety texture of sauces.

The shape of this top pairs perfectly with the mini-and-maxi-in-one Helmut Lang skirt.  The blue shades and colorblock Paper London coat adds color to the ensemble without distracting the clean lines.  The next time you shop, why not try something with an asymmetrical line?
