I am in love with my recent (and first) Rick Owens purchase, its clean lines, clever draping & silhouette, in addition to his brilliant use of sheer silk...

It has whetted my appetite for more...
I am now obsessing over this coat, particularly its sheer sleeves, sheer perfection!
To buy or not to buy? That is the question...
I couldn't take a decent picture of the dress (black is so hard to photograph!), especially the sheer draped back of it, I will try again with better lighting sometime soon. I probably shouldn't have popped my hands in my pockets, I look so wide! But I had to show the pockets off, they're so deep, and my hands keep automatically going in them!
Rick Owens draped silk dress (pockets!!!)
Dries Van Noten beaded & sequinned sandals
Love:
*The bubble hem
*The draped back
*The sheer panel at the back, which also drapes
*The deep pockets
*I tried it on with every jacket/cardi/coat I own, and it goes beautifully with practically all of them! I think I can wear these for half a year in all different combinations...
Tonight I am dressing it down with a Margiela cardigan (so soft!), as I head out to dinner with the girls:
Rick Owens silk draped dress
Martin Margiela military merino wool knit cardigan
Dries Van Noten buckle sandals
Looks lovely!
ReplyDeleteVery easy to wear
xx
U look so unique and chic. I adore all of combo. ;)
ReplyDeleteI neeed a Rick Owens cardi...
XoXo
Lovely! You look very chic x Sushi
ReplyDeleteLove the dress - any dress with pockets is fantastic in my book! Both of those Dries Van Noten sandals pair so well with the dress, too.
ReplyDeletegorgeous!!! i'm jealous

Oh, I'm so jealous... it's gorgeous! I love that coat shape, btw. beijos!
ReplyDeleteThis dress is pretty prefect! I'd say no to the coat as it doesn't look practical. you can only really wear it with sleeveless top yet the body of the coat might make you feel too hot.. Even though it's gorgeous too..
ReplyDeleteYou have the most amazing designer pieces, darling! That white Rick Owens coat is really special ~ if you can afford it, go for it!

ReplyDeleterick owens! i dream of owning a piece (preferrably a leather jacket) someday. your dress is gorgeous!

That dress is perfection on you and it shows off your DVN shoes beautifully <3!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your lovely comments, everyone! :)
ReplyDeletetilly_lily - good point about the sleeves, although the body of the coat isn't very warm, as it's mostly cotton with 20% silk and 10% wool...
lynn - would LOVE a RO leather jacket too! *drool*
janettaylor - same goes for a RO cardi, would love one! :)

you lucky LUCKY girl! Every girl should have something by Rick!
ReplyDeleteomg simply amazing dress!!
ReplyDeleteHi Brigadeiro,
ReplyDeleteI love the Rick Owens dress on you. The back draping details is so beautiful.
I think you should get the ivory jacket. It's a great piece for year round.

You always have great taste ! I love your dress
ReplyDeleteThat dress is lovely! Modern in shape. The heels are gorgeous too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a BEAUTIFUL dress. And of course I'm in love with the Dries shoes!!! I would hold off on the coat for now, unless... sales do beckon, darling :) I love the pockets, too!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great versatile piece. I love any dress that has pockets... I'm weird that way. Congrats on your purchase! I would get the coat if you can get it at a decent price. In fact, I was just going to Rick Owens today :) But I remember seeing that exact coat in a department store yesterday for half the price. With sales going on around the wrld - it's bound to show up on sale :)
ReplyDeleteIt is such a lovely dress. Great choice. I adore Rick Owens.
ReplyDeleteoh the dress is gorgeous! and yes, BUY THAT COAT! i really want your dries beaded shoes.. please come to my hahndorf work so i can steel them off your feet !
ReplyDeleteyou look so elegant and chic !!!
ReplyDeletei love rick owens work.
thanks for the link for the rosette dress !
i am a little bit reluctant because the seller has no feedback and i spent all my shopping budget the first day of sales :S
I LOVE LOVE rick owens.. I just can't get enough of the fabric--so soft and yummy! This dress looks hot on you--lovely :-)
ReplyDeleteYour black Rick Owens dress is HEAVEN!!!
ReplyDeleteGuess I love everything with pockets ;).. WONDERFUL STYLE & CUT!!!
I put it today also on my wishlist!! Love those versatile pieces with that special something.
For the coat:... white /ivory is in my opinion always a difficult thing. The style is awesome but i´m a little bit worried about getting dirty.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend!!!
Beautiful Blessings to you...

ReplyDeleteANd I definitely think you should buy the coat: it is modern yet classic and incredible (hope those sleeves are warm though! ...But one must sometimes suffer for fashion)
xoxoxo
buy, buy, buy ... los cortes de la chaqueta son perfectos, muy elegantes, me recuerdan a jil sander por su pureza y su extrema sobriedad, impecable como siempre, a muaaaaaa
ReplyDeleteyou look gorgeous in that dress! can you take more pics of the neck line? and that coat is amazing. i say go for it - its not like you will be able to find a sheer sleeved coat as beautifully structured as that anywhere else, any time soon. are you thinking white or can you get other colours?
ReplyDeleteLove t!!!
ReplyDeleteso fabulous!

ReplyDeleteThe coat is amazing too but I'd be afraid to get dirt on it seeing as its so crispy clean.
=o why must you have such amazing pieces!! I think the jacket would definitely be an investment, its stunning i suppose all you have to think about is how it would go with the rest of your garments in your wardrobe? this post is one of my fav outfits on you, i am in love with every single piece! xx
