around this time of year (yep, the beginning), i usually feel a pull towards dark clothing and black clothing. unfortunate this year when the colour that i opted for from the a/w dip collection was vulcano (wine). fortunately i have all that archive clothing to draw on. although it turns out there isn't as much black clothing in the archives as i would have thought would be there -- or i would perhaps have liked to be there. so for the first week of 2023, i pulled out these ensembles from the archives. i also think it funny that the week that i pretty much start talking myself into never wearing any coloured clothing (and re-embracing all black clothing) turns out to be the week that i catch a glimpse of the upcoming dip collection. talk about unicorns and my little pony. i felt like wednesday adams (from the netflix series wednesday) meeting her roommate for the first time. it felt like a gauntlet being thrown down. an open challenge to dressing in all black. and even to my monochromatic dressing tendencies. funny though that the more i stared at the outfits, the more i started seeing black. i guess if you mix enough colours together, their individual impacts seem less and you start seeing a kind of black (or at least a neutral). but do i need to get blue hair (or some other rainbow colour hair) for this to work? in any event, spring/summer dressing is some months out. i don't have to worry about it yet. i can rest easy in the darkness that i am enveloping myself in these days.
i am wearing rundholz dip 218. the puffer liner is rundholz mainline 219, the beanie hat is rundholz black label 221 and the shoes are rundholz dip 222. (the balaclava hat is off label -- not rundholz).
