Posh Pride

Normally we try not to read reviews as they send prue into a deep spiraling depression. I think we all remember the jungle incident from two seasons ago. However, there are some too delicious not to read. Thank you Posh Pride for making such a post. Never have i felt more insulted and flattered at the same time. This has got to be one of my favorite reviews of a collection we've done. If I could I would bronze it and put it on the wall.

The post is a bit long, but its well worth the read. Heres some highlights:

"It’s true most of the clothes are hardly wearable, but they enforce the silly brainless models we are to be creative as well: you can’t wear this new collection without a little bit of character. You need humour, you have to be self confident enough but with some distance on yourself too; you can’t be dressed in PC without a bit of attitude and/or self-derision. And if it’s not a fashion challenge, what is it?!"

"But nobody’s perfect, and The Lus are far to be. Or if they are, this is only as the perfect reflection of a gorgeous lover: a Love/Hate relationship. The man I would love with no condition is the one I could slap and kiss right after. I think Paper Couture inspires me the same feelings…"

Flickr photo pool

Hello again. After going into hiding for the past couple days we've peeked out of our holes long enough to see some of the images you have been posting to blogs and flickr. We LOVE seeing your avatars in our spring collection so stealing a page from Marni Grut of Royal Blue and her fantastic flickr group, we've created one as well. You can click here or type in http://www.flickr.com/groups/papercouture/ to visit the group page, please join and add to our photos! We want to encourage deconstructions and creativity photography of the current and past seasons and are looking forward to seeing your take on our designs.
