Influences and Influencers

Looking over the FW12 Nina Ricci photos and I was of course dying over the collection but this one look:

Made me think of Rodarte FW08

Which made GHTSofNY (thanks for the link!) think of this Junya Watanabe FW06:

I love all these designer’s collections but sometimes it is nice to have a bit of a history lesson. 

Get ready for posts on three FW12 collections.
