this may be so 2006 for some, but i can't stop drooling over this coat from alexander mcqueen's fall '06 RTW.

p.s. thanks for clueing me into the holiday '06 VK which featured a very mcqueeny-looking coat on this simpering model. i have that issue and never gave the coat a second look. funny how fit, styling and color choices can make all the difference!

I love that too. Did you see the one this clever craftster knit? http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=161289.0

I know, I love that one! Don't know if you saw it but VK knocked it off last year, it was shown in royal blue, I think in the fall issue. . .

Kate, you're right - colour and stylig can make or break a design. I wouldn't have given the blue coat a second look either!

The Vogue Knitting does not do it justice. The picture soknitpicky pointed out shows it off. It is beautiful.

yeah, nothing like a dreadful hat and a wheelbarrow to make an otherwise chic knit look hopelessly dowdy. :)

That is so funny....I so remember looking at the vk and not liking that coat.....how about something a little more flattering underneath to make ALL the difference!
i love it!

I love that it's more appealing to you with the bird on the face. You are so edgy, Kate. ;)

love the VK coat, and no, I hadn't given it a second glance either. What were the stylists thinking when they set up that photoshoot?
