I sure smile whenever I dance. Also the lack of Roaring 20s Extravagance bothers me. But otherwise it's really pretty and creative. The addition of floor lights really does scream the 20s and that's what you want when making a 1920s display. I also really like the way they're dressed, really nice and I hope we get to have dresses like those and maybe even hairstyles like theirs.
Second, Flapper is not in. Not to bash the 1920s (I seriously love that era, where would our mini dresses and short hair cuts be with out that era?) but it's just not in despite what you guys say. The reason why I simply dislike this theme is because again, it's out of style and not it is not always in season. Where was the Flapper trend during the 1960s? Or how about the 1990s? Speaking of those two eras, the 60s and the 90s are the center of this years attention. The revival of Mod, Grunge, Minimalism, and Go-go is the focus right now. Besides, inthe fashion world you'd be shunned if you just kept creating the same look every season. It goes like this: once it's been done, it's done, wait twenty-thirty (or in Flapper's case 90) years and then make a revival, once it's been done, it's done and repeat. Over and over until you're finally original enough to make your own style.
Hopefully Teamlava won't do Mod or Grunge next year S/S or else I'll be ranting about it like how I'm ranting about Flapper for this year. Sorry for being such a fashion freak. By the way, is anybody else having this? For some reason whenever I go back to check out the teaser, the image looks corrupted, again is it just me?
