A beautiful video of the collection...

I'v been obsessing over those 'i am red with love' pins that were given along side the show invites.... I hope I can get my hands on one somehow! They seem like a treasure *prays*

Fixed the link (same video, as far as I can tell).

Beautiful collection. My interest in fashion is recent enough that I missed Ann's glory days. But this will do just fine

That sounds awesome, are there any pictures of them anywhere? I feel like invites are often one of the coolest things about the shows as a whole. It's always interesting to see how designers change them up each season.

I'm in the exact same boat. There's been pieces here and there that have been really exciting to me over the last few seasons, but I haven't seen a full collection that's this strong overall (regardless of whether or not I would personally wear it all).

Had I known, I would have grabbed a handful of those buttons.

Here you go! Yeah I agree, they're always interesting to see, especially when the invite turns out to have held a subtle hint towards the full collection like this one!

Oh Faust! Were the pins up for grabs at the show? (from the photos I'v seen I assumed they came attached to the invites) I don't think I remember hearing about any other merch that's been given as promo for Ann's collections before. That's super cool.

I have a feeling we'll end up seeing these pop up on grailed & the like for extortionate prices in a months time!

That's really cool, the invite looks great. I know the last few Dries Van Noten invites have had very explicit nods to the show (the process of making them gets posted on the official Instagram). I feel like there's always so much more that goes in to these shows than the general public often sees. Even seeing the shows in motion as opposed to a slideshow changes the whole thing.

The worst part is those look like something some random Tumblr kid would stick on their jean jacket regardless of if they knew it was Ann or not

They were in little "Ann Demeulemeester" labeled envelopes sitting on the seats. So I'm assuming a bunch of people just left them.

I'm sure all of the young fashion kids went seat scavenging for them once the show was over XD

Ah neat, thanks for letting me know... I wish I could have been there, I'm truely infatuated with this collection.

Did anyone have a chance to visit the showroom?

[aussy]

Do I need to make y'all buttons? A beautiful collection, lets hope he doesn't bring back the buffalo plaid

They've done it before, there's been pins, last season the invite was a poster etc.

They also had a little bucket of pins at the showroom, where you could take as many as you please.

I must have missed that.

I went to the showroom. There are nice garments to be had, but I am afraid that I must side with North here, as much as it pains me.

[negroygris]

this was perhaps not revolutionary or strikingly new, but it was very strong, coherent and very Ann

I couldn't agree more, the accessories really did it for me. The silhouette of the striped black trousers the knits and the footwear really worked well together. Sebastien Meunier really nailed it on this collection and I can absolutely see a lot of his personal styling in this collection with Ann from the 90's.

I did not notice it till the second time I went.

I have the set of pins that were worn on the F/W 2007 show, I wear them often.. I'd really like to get my hands on the 'I am Red With Love' pin at some point too.
