There was so much red on a Fall 2012 catwalk… So much red… that it deserved a separate post. As I was browsing through the looks, my mind-based player kept switching between immortal “Lady in Red” and more morning appropriate and still quite recent “It’s beginning to look like Christmas”…
Designers took care of everything - daywear, evening wear, coats, dresses, gowns, skirts and knits that can find new happy homes comes autumn.
As for me… I don’t wear red, I am too shy and too Eastern European. I love it, but it makes me look quite unwell because my Slavonic complexion isn’t suitable for such a vibrant colour worn head to toe. I also believe that red clothes, just like red lipstick, require perfect skin otherwise every single pimple will stand out even more than the frock, so if you do love red, you’ve also got to love your skin and art of make-up.
This morning I am craving some extra energy and red colour works just as good as an intravenous shot of espresso.
