The Woman in Full

scervino-aw14-004_CAscervino-aw14-006_CAI am totally dying for Ermanno Scervino’s Autumn/Winter 2014 collection shown in Milan this past week.  I mean I die for his clothes period, like end of story, but this collection was on fire. Classic, gorgeous, feminine, sexy, totally covetable, I go wild for his clothes.  I loved the use of brocade, lace, leopard, and angora.  The silhouettes are so feminine, so ladylike. There is something so totally woman, totally unapologetic, the femme fatale in these shapes, who comes as she is, and is totally comfortable as a woman and owns it. This is how his clothes speak to me.  And this is the woman I am, and always wanted, to be, who speaks her mind and uses her intellect and yet doesn’t want to compromise her femininity or her womanly wiles along the way.

scervino-aw14-020_CAI, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naive or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman.
