Shiny like the Future

My favourite fashion theme Alien Futuristic 80s has hit the mainstream hardcore this year & I couldn't be happier. Not that I will ever see any of these items w/ my own eyes but inspiration-wise the shine, man-made materials, unusual colour schemes, and strange silhouettes are so different from anything in years.

A new emphasis is on fabric research has affected the designs themselves --- lamé jersey reminiscent of liquid mercury, hi-tech parachute material

Above three: Balenciaga - pre-fall 2012

rounded, oversized silhouettes / retro 80s / lamé / shoulder pad looks / sportswear-inspired pieces / boxy jackets / semi-structured sweaters / contrast lining / shiny pigment-treated cotton

This year, the Balenciaga inspiration was to mix 80s post-punk office wear with what we may have pictured 2012 fashion would become.
