Theyskens' Theory has been one of my favourite labels ever since I chanced upon the Pre-Fall 2012 collection. Inspired by the Jellyfish (yes the ocean illuminating creature with devastating tentacles) as said by Olivier Theyskens, this collection will be filled with lots of sparkling sequins and pastel colours, as well as darker colours, which includes black and navy, which somewhat represents the stormy seas.
As famously remarked by Anna Dello Russo, 'Wear a coat as a dress' (I think I need to stop quoting), the Coat Dress (or is it Dress Coat?) has appeared in his show this season. The minimalistic, clean cut silhouette with prominent shoulder pads managed to successfully accentuate the elegance in women.
And then there's oversized coats. God, let me just hyperventilate for a moment, because I'm totally in love with the coats on Look 1 & 3!!!!! This design somewhat reminisces the coat Alexander McQueen once designed, which I think it's vintage because I saw it in one of the fashion books in my school's library. And the books there are always vintage. Okay I really need those coats now I shall not stare at them anymore omg.
Elegant and classy. Theyskens has never failed to inject the sophisticated look into the womenswear collection he creates. And they are always ready-to-wear (no pun intended) at any point of time. Looks 3, 4 and 5 may be more of an evening wear compared to a daily look, but you can easily turn it around by pairing them up with a bright coloured blazer and the perfect gladiator wedges.
P/S: I really love look 3!!!

The Trousers. And Suits. Here is the destination where menswear shake hands with women. The classic, slim fit trousers have officially taken a toll on me, and I am stacking them in piles (more like heaps) till the fact that they cause a spillover. Ohwell, what can I do when I get hooked onto gorgeous suits... Looking too formal? Fashionable office wear, perhaps? Or maybe not when you have a sequinned jacket on.
I guess I only filled out this post with the seas instead of the jellyfish. Maybe only 4 jellyfishes to be exact. But you can always check out the whole collection from here.
