Basso & Brooke Fall Winter 2010

View Comments

Basso & Brooke are know for their incredibly detailed, multicoloured textile designs, which are beautiful, but can get a bit repetitive season after season. This duo will have no problem selling some of the winning dresses in this show, but this won’t guarantee them longevity as a brand. They are eventually going to have to diversify.

I Love…

the detail of this beautiful print, and its ingenious placement on the dress.

another stunning print, this time a photographic, monochrome image.

the way the print is designed to fall into the folds and tucks of the dress bodice and sleeves.

I Loathe…

printed, ruched trousers. Not attractive.

this suit, the print is too much.

    Not to mention how synthetics are treated, but also how the material is created. They are petroleum based, and I think we can all agree that 'harvesting' petroleum is devestating to heath, environment and habitats. (and as you mentioned the refined product is linked to serious health concerns including ADD, male infertility, increased testosterone in women and a reduction in the number of males being born each year.)
    I'm with your Mom...it's not just about going green. (I'm a bit of an over zelous green advocate, who eats meat and endorses fur, believes in compassion and being socially responsible- perhaps having the appearance of being more than slightly conflicted.) I really think people need to consider how green thier choices really are....if bamboo flooring means that old growth teak forests are ripped out to accomadate a rapid growing tree, then shipped (on a polluting ship) across the planet, isn't harvesting local wood the greener choice? PETA is great... for making sure that domestic animals aren't abused that cattle aren't pumped full of growth hormone, and that chickens aren't raised and slaughtered in a horrible fashion. But lets be real PETA- I think the bib-tail deer of Alberta would rather offer one up for a coat and live free in thier formerly pristine, uncancerous environment than have you running around in vegan friendly plastic shoes...made by human slaves...I think you get my point.
