Finally, I say Oooooo!

Fashion weeks haven't been particularly inspirational for me, this round. until now, that is.. check out the work of Amaya Arzuaga http://us.fashionmag.com/photos/photo.php?id_event=699435&id_photo&page=1 (Some people have told me you need to subscribe in order to see the photos. This site is free, and I haven't gotten bad mail from subscribing)

I love her nods to historical fashions, and the origami & architectural influences. I could see these runway looks translating into ready to wear in some pretty interesting ways!
