Is it me, or is it always fashion week somewhere?
I was perusing the Gucci RTW collection and I loved it… Super glamourous floaty dresses with gorgeous coats and furs…. So many of the models were dressed in a single vibrant color from head to toe.
Check it out:
I couldn’t help but remember this piece in New York Magazine from 2008 about 5 New Yorkers who dress all in one color all the time. 
Reminds me of Jamie Drake and some of his totally monochromatic rooms.…HERE.
Thoughts?

Yes, this collection is amazing. Fun comparison to old NYmag article – fabulous that you not only remembered but found it!! This fall is going to be very tough shopping – so many gorgeous collections!!
One of my favorites of the Fall runways. Though I have to say, when I think of the whole one-color thing, I think of that Project Runway contestant (I forget his name) from a few years back. Either way, all of the colors are pitch perfect, especially the teal & red.
That would be tough to wear one color all the time! I’m diggin the monochrome look lately in home decor too. The magenta is my fave, but it always is so I guess that doesn’t say much!

Love the fall line-up.
For the record I LOVE your blog!
SO PRETTY! break me off a piece of that!!!!
I love the comparison to the NY Mag article. About a two years ago I was on the subway and the Elizabeth Sweetheart the woman who dresses all in green sat down next to me and she was definitely decked out all the way down to her toes in green. I was elated!
That NY Mag article was def one I’ve never forgotten. Love this post!
