a new dress from s/s 2016. meaning: i bought it in s/s 2016 but didn't wear it until just now. when it comes to rundholz, i have to say that i am a bit of a collector (no, it's true!). unlike with many other labels whose clothes i buy for wearing -- i like to say that i am a consumer of the label -- if i don't wear a piece of clothing within two years, even a year, of buying it, i am unlikely to ever wear it and i know that i can safely (and i often do) remove it from my closet -- with rundholz, i buy things because i like them. period. i don't particularly worry about wearing them because i somehow know that, if i don't wear something immediately, the time will come when i will wear it. this has been my experience with the label since i started buying it. which is why i call myself a collector of it. but, to be clear, i don't collect for the sake of collecting. i collect for the sake of wearing it ... either immediately or at some point in the future. (dizzy yet?) with this dress (as with some other pieces) it was all about timing. now was the right time.

i am wearing rundholz black label s/s 2018 (sneaks) and rundholz black label s/s 2016 (dress, jacket and trousers).

i haven't written much about the new a/w rundholz collections and i am not sure why. admittedly, my initial feelings about the black label collection were lukewarm ... until i saw some of the collection "in the cloth". i like that the colours green and khaki figure in the collections. when i wear colour, besides red, there are no other colours that i would rather wear than green and khaki. i like that tulle appears in the black label collection. i will never say no to a "tutu" for a non-dancer. i like the prints that are featured in the black label and dip collections (feet, some, what appear to be, newspaper photos of dudes from some earlier time (the 50s) and monsters/creatures -- seriously? are they trying to kill me). i am positively mad about the monster/creature backpacks (i bought two of them and if that isn't evidence of madness i don't know what is). and, although this isn't about the collections themselves, i jumped for joy over the choice of models for the little books for the mainline and dip collections. yes! a/w i can hardly wait for you for more reasons than i usually have! in the meantime ... what would i do if it weren't for all the topas pieces that i bought this s/s?
