kimono style dresses are sexy and airy. they combine the sophisticated look worth of a 40something art collector type of woman with the bohemian and exotic feel of a younger girl. i like their versatility - being them a tunic or a wrap can be worn directly on skin with heeled sandals, or dressed down with wolly tights and turtle-neck tops.
my friend's friend got this on sunday in Columbia Road Flower Market. it is a Diane Von Fustenberg piece. it was so perfect on her french body. 
i love this kimono. the colour blocks could resemble a Matisse painting. 
a very graphic design by Buddhist Punk. 
Temperley is unbeatable for retro-style tunics with bold colours and eccentric prints.

Antonio Marras, ah Marras, we are all looking forward to land into your affordable Isola Marras. 
fabolous, a brand loved by Californian celebrities. 
to conclude this catwalk of delicacies, the cherry on the cake: a William Matthewson kimono extravaganza. i am going to slip into a similar style (with a much cheaper label) on saturday for my engagement party, but i will not disclose the model till then... : P without knowing how big snake prints were this forthcoming spring (see Loboutin and Jimmy Choo below), i have just ordered a pair of made-to-measure silver fish sandals. they are proper dance shoes, which are by definition soft and flexible, in one word comfortable. it's the same idea that repetto had: turn technical shoes into everyday/fashionable items.
