There is something wistfully romantic about turbulence. Whilst everyone is worrying about the economic crisis, Sara Berman has gone back to raw passion and laddered tights. The last time the world's outlook looked uncertain, women like Greta Garbo took solace in long cigarette holders, rebelliously short hair and bias cut lame. They had a riot below the financial commotion and Sara Berman follows their seditious lead.
If this means drinking unhealthy amounts of cheap white wine and not taking off your mascara, then so be it. Hungover-skin and smoky eyes just happen to be the perfect accompaniment to her shadowy pansy prints, grunge checks and just-on-the-right-side-of-slutty evening silks anyway. Revel in sequin delights, glam astrakan coats, sumptuous florals and lavish lace. Go to Sara Berman.  |
