that was hazy cosmic jive

[galaxy+print+space.jpg]

day dress, strapy wedges, skirt suit, flared slacks, killer heels, graphic satchel, easy hang vest.


Now evidentally, none of the mid-range fashion brands have taken seriously their responsability of shamelessly recreating peter pilotto-esque space and galaxy prints. Lusting after all things intergalactic since the backend of last year, I'm still on the hunt of garments to help me act out my nebula fantasies (haha, just me or does "nebula fantasies" sound like a phrase that would be incredibly well suited to space fan porn? anyone?..) the disappearance of my galaxy print purse (the same fateful night I lost my camera) certainly hasn't furthered me in my quest. Desperate times call for desperate measures and all that. And well, what can I say, I'm a natural designer, allow me if I may..


"I present the "Hazy Cosmic Jive" collection, kindly named by Mr David Bowie himself, these silky pieces hang like carefree whispers with the occasional Hannah Gibbons scalloped edge thrown in for good measure. Snap up the collection before the Scientologists do, they've been poaching me to sell them rights to reproduce the pieces for their "uniform". I'll let Beck and Juliette Lewis wear them, but after that I draw the line."

What a pitch! I think I smell funding pie..

ah i love it! and you threw in both a Beck and a Hannah Gibbons reference in there, so right now i think you're a genius!

also, zimmerman, an australian brand that's stocked by net-a-porter and i think has their own store, althought it could just be AUS only, has a whole range of skirts, dresses, tops and the odd jacket in whispy silks and chiffons with galaxy prints on them... the colour scheme is more purply than what you've got here, but yeah... i like them... they are a little on the expensive side though, i think the skirt was about $200 or $300 (think half of that for the price in pounds)...

hope that helps!
