Happily Ever Helmut Lang
Sunday, November 2nd, 2008
Want to be the fairest in the land? Then you might want to pick up this snow white shearling jacket by the brilliant Helmut Lang.
Of course, I’m still totally obsessed with the black leather one I saw back in July (and that AMAZING one-strapped cocktail dress I saw in Saks a few months ago), but when I saw this new style pop up on net-a-porter a few days ago I sort of died (it is also available at Intermix). I know it’s $1,325 and that it will probably get dirty the very first time it is worn, but I still love it.
Imagine, if you will, a cool fall afternoon, a massive conflagration of leaves igniting Manhattan from City Hall to the Cloisters, a large cup of freshly brewed coffee…and now imagine this stunning shearling Helmut Lang paired with dark washed Earnest Sewn Harlan jeans, simple Prada booties, and a vibrant blood-red scarf with fabulous fringe. Now that is what I call happily ever after.
