Stacks of colour placed together uniformly always seems so wonderful, even though I'm likely to buy the black tee in the lowest right corner, which I really do like. (This visual impact was what caused me to buy a pack of H&M socks back as well, when I don't even really wear socks. Weakness.) And the best thing is the illustrated poster, closer look below.
They remind me of retro sewing pattern drawings. I used to see this pattern books in my seamstress aunt's place and we might even have some at home because the mother used to do this for a living too. The images of these dolls on paper donning the finished product were, and still are, fascinating.
Incidentally, the pieces shown below look pretty current, don't they? We will probably be remembered as the era that dredged up the archives repeatedly to fill our retail racks and design aspirations.

Oh and about the Alexander Wang collaboration, my favourite is the trapeze dress with the tiny black vest looking thing slapped on the chest. Even though that is something my own chest will not allow to be carried off, unless my game plan is to get someone to give me their seat on the crowded train.
