I've waxed rhapsodic about the beauty of the perfect uniform. Reliable, sustainable, comfortable. But I'm a liar who lies when I see a garment like this. It's stunning and I covet it, it's impractical and beyond expensive, it's magnificantly crafted and probably uncleanable. It's too short, it's very "of the moment" and yet, I just don't care. I absolutely, totally love it. It's from chloe's summer collection, of which most of the garments are nothing short of amazing. The color palette, the patterns, the silhouettes all just blow my mind. Never mind that I'm too old, too poor and too practical to ever own one of them in real life. I can still appreciate them, like any other beautifully designed and crafted object. Appreciate them from afar and sadly, that is all.
