Fall 2013 Ready-To-Wear: Jeremy Scott

I feel like it was TIME ago when this collection came out, what wIth Jeremy's endless shout-outs on Twitter from every celeb you've ever wanted to be or pitied with your 'everyone will hate them soon, they're like sooo try-hard' well jeal attitude. Obvz I love it. Obvz I'll buy a lot of it. Obvz the reaction against this ironic 'I'm a 90s cartoon' look - as lead by Scott's collab with Adidas Originals - will start A$AP. Obvz I'll regret ever buying any of it.*

But for now whilst I'm 24 (and mentally 16), before my wardrobe choices become about furthering my career, or concealing parts of my bod, fashion is fun. As one of the tees in this collection states 'Adults suck and then you are one'. If fun, according to Scott, means wearing a neon yeti suit on a date, a suit patterned with eyeballs to the opticians or a top that looks like it's munching my tummy (hilarious and genius) to Nando's, so be it. Where he goes I will follow.

Sales will start plummeting for those ripping off Scott's designs but as always Scott will be one step ahead. There's enough here that's wearable even if you're not Rita 'Look at me, NO LOOK AT ME' Ora; the leopard print pieces, a biker jacket and mini skirt in particular, and the exquisite cut of a pair of tartan trousers and a PVC bustier. These outfits that appear in between the innovative, crown-pleasing, satirical looks prove that Jeremy ain't going anywhere yet. The backlash may be coming, but he'll get off Scott free.

*See: My House of Holland 'DO ME DAILY CHRISTOPHER BAILEY' and 'GET YOUR FREAK ON GILES DEACON' tees, my Jeremy Scott Bart Simpson print knitted crop and skirt, my Tommy Hilfiger dungarees that are the exact same that Destiny's Child wore back when Destiny had four children not just one Irreplaceable daughter. They will be hoarded at my parents' house, unworn but serving as my journal, until my kids want them. As The Lion King taught us; it's the circle of life, and it moves us all.

PS. Jeremy, how about a Lion King themed collection for Spring 2014?
