Complex Geometries AW 2011 Presentation

Being a super duper Canadian, I have to rep Complex Geometries hard. At one point during the presentation I described the collection as what space would look like if it was designed in 1972 and I must say that's the most accurate description I can come up with.
It's nice to see CG branching out from their usual black/white/grey complicated clothing and incorporating other colours and textures into their pieces. The insanely high shoes were by LD Tuttle and even with my busted ankle I still have some crazy urge to get them.

Complex Geometries

I'm going to take a moment now and rep one of my favourite Canadian designers, Complex Geometries. As much as I dream of living abroad I'm always a little sentimental when it comes to Canadian art/fashion/jewellery and I feel as though as a country we're under appreciated and overlooked.
I've been following CG for quite a few years now and they seem to only be getting better as time goes on. The above pictures are my favourite pieces from their AW 2010 collection and this only fuels my obsession with anything sheer and hooded.
My closet is composed entirely of solids and textures (I've never been one for patterns,except for Pugh, of course) so how else is one supposed to stand out? Shapes!
Just as their name states, all of their pieces are very geometrical. Even with the drapey shirts and bags there is still a structure to them which makes them extremely wearable and unique.
