reading the classics



Charlie and his friend Florence, came down from Cambridge when I shot them at fashion week. (He's the fashion editor for the Varsity, the 'Independent Cambridge Student Newspaper since 1947'. It doesn't get more classic than that.)

I'm posting this today because I'm very much in the mood for Charles' (& Florence's, for that matter) crisp, masculine, classic look: for me. I wonder how long this trend of women wearing men's clothing will continue. The secret to make the transition to night dressing is simply to sex it up with something: a flirty little skirt, perhaps, or a lace bra under a tailored jacket (basically, lose the shirt), but the obvious transition is change your oxford lace-ups (or, brogues, as they call them here: bit like the French calling pomme frites French fries) for some unbelievably killer heels.
