Lover "The White Serpent"

So Lover finally showed at RAFW again, this time in celebration of their 10 year anniversary. Well congratulations, Lover: on the anniversary and a fantastic collection. Lover planned to give tribute to their 10 years of work, whilst taking the label in a fresh direction, which personally, I believe they achieved. The collection interprets older fabrics or styles in a way that seems, fittingly, more mature. I look back on some of Lover's older collections and think that some of the pieces seem too young for me, but many pieces from this collection are just right. Of course, there are also many pieces that are just not to my taste (red is not my most flattering colour).

Here are my top picks:

Very similar to the Modernist dress, which I already own in khaki, but it is oh-so-wearable, and I do like this new length

Love the cut of these sleeves!

Now take your pick of the lace dresses (sure, they're all gorgeous, but I only need one)
Nude, black, ivory and red:

I know I said red's not my colour, but I still think this one is my favourite

How many Lover lace dresses is too many?

    My fave lover collection is by far black magick. Wish they could whip out designs like back then. I'm not a fan of masculine tailoring. I do like those lace dresses, but am too scared to find out the price!

    The lace dresses are so so SO pretty. I can't wait for Voguettes such as yourself to buy one so I can live vicariously through you :) :) xxx

    Love your blog, Bonsai! Isn't the lace collection this time around to die for? If only my credit card would magically reset itself to zero ;)
