Red Riding Hood


I fell hard for this perfect image of Daphne Guiness wearing an amazing cloak by Alexander McQueen. In a week where I've been drawn to red and dramatic spaces, this image is perfection.

  11. I think she looks amazing, I find Daphne so peculiar (in a good way!) and fascinating, she pulls off such a dramatic cloak just spectacularly. This is fashion, and it's meant to be fabulous and over-the-top. Yes, the cost of fabric and construction probably could have feed hundreds, but so could a lot of things people spend money on every day. Thanks so much for sharing!
