If life were an episode of Sesame Street, and if Sesame Street was about fashion, the word of the day would be ‘deconstructed.’ Quite honestly, I can’t tell you how many times I heard that word in the past week, but I can tell you I heard it a lot. If we didn’t get enough of slashing our tee shirts the past year or so, or ripping up our jeans, I tell you it’s not about to be over, not even close, as Anne-Sofie Back the new Creative Director at Cheap Monday, this SS10 collection is all about deconstruction (along with a whole slew of upcoming collections). To be honest, I find this quite relieving this collection is a beautiful combination of slasher rock chick, with a delicate Holly Hobby twist. I quite like the floral patch jeans and the slashed skirt… something well beyond my own rotary cutter skills. These will be available on Coutie.com, ahem, next year.

Oh this collection makes me want to get out my scissors for a bit of DIY style. I wasn’t so sure about the patchwork jeans at first but, they do work really well with the grey slashed stuff which gives them a harder rockchick edge so they are not too Holly Hobbyish.

I like the patched jeans…can’t see myself wearing them, but they’re nice to look at.

I love that shredded skirt! It’s like a punk rock fairy skirt or something.

❤ c…what a great shop!
❤ ceri… so true, the patchwork could go either way, but with the slashes, it’s a very dualistic approach, i like, i like
❤ wendy, you’ll proably change your mind by the time they come around… i’ve already warmed to them, and at first, i was like no way.
❤ queen michelle… oh, i can see you style them very well!
❤ michelle, punk rock fairies are the best arent they?
❤ maria.. ahha me too.

She’s heading Cheap Monday now? How cool!

I kinda dig the patchwork jeans…I wonder if she’ll do a set in a different print.

Destroyed, I dislike. But deconstructed - especially in these artfully done pieces - I adore.
