Ancient Summer

Summers over, so here's a quick flashback to a couple of outfits I never got round to posting- both with an Ancient Greek tinge and a rust/black/white colour palette. including literally the only t-shirt I own 😏 First up is my unashamedly over-worn pleated skirt, which I like to pair with monochromatic elements. The t-shirt is Fausto Puglisi who is a rather flashy designer not immediately identifiable as someone I would typically be drawn to, but I love the t-shirts clash of antiquity and neoclassicism, transposing a photo-realist depiction of the ancient Greek statue of Discobolus upon modern iterations of the Greek key and other border ornaments. Secondly, is the most amazing shirt by Vivetta, which I treated myself to whilst studying last year. I was actually writing an essay on Fortuny at the time, and reading the autobiography of Isadora Duncan who famously dressed in free-flowing Grecian clothing, so I felt utterly drawn to the neoclassical theme of the shirts embroidery.
