crying for argentina

This femme from Buenos Aires looks like she just walked out of a 1947 portrait session for Dior's New Look ...


I have always been curious about Argentina. Hopefully there will be a few femmes walking around in crinolines when I get there!

gorgeous!!
Now I wanted Mouret doing dresses as beautiful as this (not 1920's in particular though)

Sadly you won´t see many crinolines on the street here, although I did see a skirt with a thin layer of tulle underneath.
What you will see is lots of layered 80´s clothing. Hair that is either fashioned into a mullet, rollinga, or the jane birkin bang look.

I was planning to go to Buenos Aires for new year, but I couldn´t find anymore flight tickets...

I´ve already heard great things about argentina, and its fashion too!

Buenos Aires...tango fire...breathless music of Astor Pizzola...pasionate dancers - women in split skirts, heels, and moist lips - men in black, strong and graceful, shirts unbuttoned.

That description reminds me of my years flamenco dancing... yes those skirts were quite sexually spectacular.

Poor and noble? Absolument.

i just love the way girls dress in argentina
i'm actually french but i've lived here for a couple of years
they take trends and make them their own, kind of edgier...
and their hair!!
anyway i just love this girl's dress
it would be amazing if i saw more people dressed like that here
