While browsing on nymag.com for a pic of Yen's new jacket, I stumbled upon the FW09 Just Cavalli collection. Good or bad? Not sure yet, but it certainly caught my eye.. it was like Margiela meets Balmain. Are any of you getting tired of the oversaturation of ripped jeans in the market? Maury said she is but I think there's still some kick in them.. at least for another two seasons or so.
As I mentioned in my earlier post, our dear friend Yen copped a marvelous patent leather, snakeskin Just Cavalli motorcycle jacket for pennies at the ITIERRE Sample Sale last Sunday. I so regret getting there late but like Mama says, the early bird gets the worm and boy did Yen catch a big one! I was hoping there'd be one more jacket stashed somewhere in their basement but to my dismay, there were no more. Needless to say, Yen's a lucky lil' fashionista. (Sorry about the pic, they didn't allow cams so I took it with my blackberry.)
Here are better pics of the jacket, back and front, from the actual Just Cavalli FW09 runway show.
