Winter...WHITE
_
As Fall morphs into winter and the prospect of an all white landscape makes me look forward to serene moments of contemplation, I decided to bring you a perspective on ...white, in fashion now.
Inspiration came from yet another spectacular window dressing dreamed and executed by a young, up and coming designer and artistic director from Vancouver, Sonia Capriceru. She is the mastermind (and most of the time the handy hands) behind these unique window dressings unveiled twice a year with almost clockwork precision at Front&Co, a hip vintage and modern consignment store in central Vancouver.
Sonia's vision, celebrated in local media as "Art in Unexpected Places", a striking blend of modernity and surrealism, has that magic quality that prompts reflection, drawing you instantly out of the mundane, if only for a moment. That makes them unforgettable.
This years windows are a feast for the eyes, a monochromatic, all white dream of winter. I will let you find the metaphors behind the images. Enjoy!

And if the all-white design stroke a cord with you, let's remember this color's indubitable presence on the runways this year, a time-tested classic in the vast vibrant palette of this year's colors. Some things, or colors never fade. Check out the photos below, courtesy of ELLE Fashion Magazine.
From Alexander Wang, Phillip Lim and Michael Kors to Calvin Klein and Narcisso Rodrigues, all white never seemed so beautiful. And let's not forget Celine.
