One might ask while nonchantly flipping through digital or now defunct print pages of a magazine, what's the actual point of all this? That's precisely the point, there is no point other than pleasing the eye and relaying some useful styling tips in the form of a dreamy photoshoot. The point is to make you dream. 
 Models Madison and Liesl show off FW22 runway looks alongside our archival vintage pieces. For this story, the inspiration was a much needed weekend getaway. The designer looks I selected are all pieces I would have packed in my vintage suitcase and taken along for the ride in my 1975 Porchse 911, if I was a rich girl of course. 
"

She took a train to the middle of nowhere, Vague was her destination
Far from home, without gauge of time
She fled the woes of big city life
For the silence of the rolling hills,
the mystery of empty roads, Solitude of spirit
If only for a weekend
Just to hear her thoughts Converse with them
Set them free, watch them dance
No one around to judge, no one to please If only for a weekend

"
