| Lundstrom FW 2010 |
Y'all know that simplicity is in. Y'all know lady-like chic is in. Y'all know the eighties and nineties is in. (You can't escape that). So what do these naturally occurring ingredients create? A Linda Lundstrom come-back. Now, you may not know about Linda if you didn't happen to be rocking in the fashion world in her heyday- the mid-seventies to the mid-nineties. (Let's just round that to the eighties.) I know personally, in my case, I was not alive. That put a crimp in my style back then. But since birth, and a subsequent Elle Canada subscription, I have come to find out about this Canadian fashion power. She's had her ups and downs, business-wise (I'm not going to go through them, I'm no historian, even of wikipedia caliber) and, my understanding is that her past downfalls were because Ol' Linda didn't- or couldn't- change with the times. Thankfully for her, this no longer matters because the fashion roulette table has spun, and her exact brand of fashion has come back into vogue. Her staple: large, flowing jackets, shapelessly fashionable, and chunky fur-trimmed hoods known as the "LaParka" is back in. Linda herself has also recently got back into the fashion game with a new line. But perhaps the more cache will lie in vintage Linda Lundstrom, which could potentially lie in any number of moth-balled closets in your mothers' or grandmothers' houses- that's right, look into it, you could be about to enter a fashion treasure trove from the eighties. LL, we glad ya back.
