Earlier today, Ralph Lauren brought back an old denim classic for the debut of the Spring 2010 collection at New York Fashion Week- the overall. The romper and jumpsuit foreshadowed this trend, but I could not believe that it would appear on the runway so quickly.
Lauren's insight on the collection:"I am inspired by the character of the worker, the farmer, the cowboy, the pioneer women of the prairies living authentically through challenging times,""I have always admired the honesty of their work wear-the weathered jean, the sturdy overall, the jean jacket, the faded blue work shirt, the naive print of a floral dress."
I have mixed feelings about the re-emergence of this trend. I have some very fond memories of my numerous pairs of overalls from GAP Kids and Limited Too (circa mid nineties). However, I do not foresee this particular piece of clothing making its way into my closet or daily style any time soon. I am however, excited to follow the street style of this fad. I imagine there will be some very creative outfits remixing overalls.
The super comfy, casual denim has re-appeared! Will you jump on the bandwagon?
