Blog for Saks - A Dream Come True

Thanks to my regular email blasts from IFB (Independent Fashion Bloggers), I excitedly stumbled upon the opportunity of a lifetime. Saks 5th Ave and IFB have joined forces to create a a SaksPOV contest where the winner could become a freelance writer for the Saks writing team. Exciting right?


Of course, as a wannabe blogger and aspiring fashion/pr girl I could not pass up the opportunity. With my past experience doing interviews in my Best of Series as well as background in PR and love for fashion- I am determined I am the best girl for the job. For my POV entry I have decided to review a collection that I felt inspired me as a blogger.

3.1 Phillip Lim
It has become quite clear that superheros and comics have collided on the runway to evokes the visual style of the graphic novel- creating a modern day superhero. The two-dimensional minimalism, tailored silhouettes and dualism that were last seen on the pages of our favorite comic books are now a walking reality.

Lim's 2012 collection embodies realism while still creating abstract works of art. With block lettering, bright colors, and pointy weapon like shoes- Lim takes a buttoned-up business woman and makes her KA-POW! the next. Lim's bringing out the inner superwoman.







From Pea Coats designed to almost be cape-like and the well constructed pants and suits that are tailored to a tee, Lim's ready to wear collection is great for any fashion forward fashionista. For the everyday girl or business woman, Lim has made many of this years piece reversible. Think sweaters with explosions of color on one side and clean solid modernism on the other.

Lim has outdone him self with this collection. His straight forward designs, fun patterns and chiffon overlays makes his collection one of the most sought after for the fall 2012 season. Who doesn't want to wake up in the morning put on an outfit and feel like they can conquer the world?
