Walk the Walk: Jil Sander F/W 2012 Collection

It's such a bittersweet moment and Raf Simons has decided to exit Jil Sander with a bang!

In my artistic world, I see this collection as the flower blossom through Raf Simons' eyes. The colour palette is so soft and cheerful. Couture elements still apply on many of the clothes to make the Jil Sander girl to look elegant and modern. The last few black pieces are mirroring the dark and edgy menswear collection, with the PVC/black leather element to add a fetish vibe to the gowns.

If the rumour is true, this might be a good preview of what you can expect to see the new S/S 2013 Christian Dior collection from Raf. No matter what the future holds for Raf, at this moment, I think Jil Sander will have to find a way to top all the success Raf has created for this brand. Good luck to Raf and I am excited to see the return of Jil Sander!

Pros:
- I love the colour palette, so soft and feminine.
- Couture elements still exist in this collection, but pieces are highly wearable.
- The accessories are beautiful, especially the high heels with metallic accents.
- Even though the last part of the show is all about black gowns, the PVC and black leather have made the pieces unique.
- Oversized cotas can never look that good with such great colour combinations.
- The collection gives a very cheerful and elegant vibe.

Cons:
- None, such a dreamy collection!

Eye Candies:
- Pastel pink & white coat
- Pastel purple dress with white PVC
- White strapless dress
- High heels with metallic accents
- Nude & white dress with pastel pink knit sleeves
- Black gown with horizontal pleats
