I was just checking out the pictures from the VPL by Victoria Bartlett show; all the colors were earthy, except for the Cobalt Blue, which was kind of a nice contrast! Actually, I liked all the colors.
While much of Bartlett's clothes looked more like underwear, some of it was wearable. I could definitely see myself wearing the beige/gold skirt, the long belted t-shirt, the silver skirt and the Grey cardigan!
Implications - The nice thing about the entire collection was how simple it was; all of the pieces were loosely fit and made of soft fabrics. They would be perfect and professional for long office days.
