Knot work built into both the clothing and accessories.

Christopher Bailey was not the most gifted showman. He often reached for tired/tacky signals of glamor. But his Burberry S/S 2010 is still a guilty pleasure. The knotted and twisted pastels offered a youthful touch.

Randomly found this on Amazon, just casually priced at $75,000. Free shipping though.

AF Vandevorst made actual brown PAPER look this beautiful. S/S 2004. Something so mundane turned into graceful, vulnerable clothes. When I tell you there’s no such thing as a bad AF Vandevorst collection, I mean it.

A fully realized world - right down to the details.

Hermès really lost an asset when Jean Paul Gaultier left. He didn't just dress the Hermès woman - he imagined her entire world: travel, sport, adventure, seduction, leisure. All with his signature kitsch and wit. Hermès S/S 2010

Contemporary glamor that was very commercially successful too.

I WILL fight you over Versace F/W 2005. 2000s glamor in its purest form. Polished, aggressive, conceited.
