ro nyc store has version with a free floating skirt and a leather skirt. neither have back pockets which is a killer

so many versions. What's the free floating skirt like? Is that the same cut as the heavy cotton swing skirt but without back pockets & cropped?

They are beautiful, even though I wasn't absolutely sure about the "skort" part, which is stitched to the trousers and looks like more an apron than a skirt. But I'd really like to see you wearing them BSR - with a full RO combination ?
And the price was, for me, a huge "no". But it's a masterpiece.

Indeed they are a challenge to put in something else than a full RO outfit (our endless issue is back again). And imo the most difficult part is to find the proper shoes to match. The only perfect combo for now is with huge high boots... like the RO "mohawk" ones.

And compared to the cashmere pyjamas they have at Palais Royal, these skorts' price is a joke .

why oh why are they not reissuing the structured paneled shirt from s/s 09. it feels like a prelude to the f/w stuff.

This is probably a stretch but can anyone verify what style/leather ru 4761 /lp is?

I was speaking of the originality of the clothes, and not of the wearer. These are two different things, which have to be distinguished.

The question of the originality of the wearer is a difficult one. I could say, but the response wouldn't be satisfying, that I don't feel less original wearing, for example, the Ann D total look (flower cropped trousers+waistcoat+jacket) than any of my others homemade combinations.

Another unsatisfying response would be that there's no true originality, even here, since everybody's looking - almost - the same : we're all, more or less, "goth-ninja" lookalikes, as people from other forums may describe us.

But the right response is imo that you're truly original when you're wearing things that seem to be designed for you, and fit not only your morphology, carnation and hair colour, but also your "personnality", not the psychological one - or not only - but the aesthetical one, defined by your present and past foliated artistic inclinations and tastes. And the opposite of being original would be, as strange as it sounds, being costumed, even though both notions are, for the common sense, close. A better word should be, if it has the same semantic range than in French, "singularity".

As I already said somewhere else, being interested in fashion makes sense, for me, only when I'm abble to connect the present and actual interest for this specific piece of clothe and the fantasies that are leading, unconsciously, my life, i.e. my way of thinking and feeling, and in which way it fits who I am, but also help me to reinvent myself.

Beautifully articulated post.

/\ Maybe a tad too foppish for RO ?

You read my mind, i was exactly saying that to myself. But precisely, it might be a proper match with a formal jacket (like the RO bell one )

And I believe the first Augusta (7 holes) is too short.
