Tsumori Chisato x Petit Bateau

As usual, I'm all sorts of late when anything remotely cool happens in the fashion industry. Add up the fact that I've been storing this posts for a weeks now and you get a recipe for disaster. Still, I felt the need to update and this baby was lying in the archives and the clothes are too good to not post, so here we are.

This amazing collaboration between Tsumori Chisato and Petit Bateau was released somewhere in October. Tsumori Chisato has been my favourite Japanese designer for a while now because her designs are chock full with bold graphic prints and life, instead of minimal and avant-garde. That's a nice change sometimes. But now, here's the downer: that dress, basically the culmination of all my childhood dress fantasies, was made for kiddies. Am I getting too old for clothes like that? Probably. 

 Luckily, the Interwebz helped me find the perfect alternative: these mind-boggling (yes, that's the word) graphic tights by, yes, Tsumori Chisato. They could be yours and/or mine for a mere 85 dollars. The chances that I'll ever own them are pretty slim but still, nothing will ever trump the fun of making imaginary wish lists in my head for me.
