Coincidence?/Betsey Johnson Inspired Romper

























































































































































Is it just a coincidence that a lot of this Spring/Summer 2010 collection has a striking resemblance to pin-up girls?
According to fashionising.com, "many recent fashion trends have pointed to it, and given the popularity of the likes of lingerie as outerwear." With designers nearing invisibility with their hemlines, there should be quite a reaction this coming season. Maybe we won't even need to buy new bathing suits.

We all know Betsey Johnson. She uses highly saturated and brightly colored computer images for most of her fashion illustrations. Usually they incorporate elaborate tattoos, jewelry, flowers, and other exotic feminine accessories. The light pink color used in this romper follows the fashionable colors for summer 2010. The use of cut outs has been a theme throughout most of our collection. It also fits with the revealing nature of the classic pin-up girls.
