I had no idea what to expect from the silk jumpsuit — silk pants attached to a blousy kimono top — but it was quite smart; very Yoko, circa 1979. To wear it really well, I thought, you would need to be a sexually liberated woman with lots of hair and strappy gold platforms, sashaying around the infinity-pool party with large wooden jewelry, terrorizing your husband’s business associates by being obviously naked underneath. I personally found it far too comfortable to be evening wear, but it would really be spot-on for the 18th wife of Bob Evans.

Fashion Vice muses on jumpsuits past and present--a topic we will never tire of.
Is it just us or is the Banana Republic Spring 2009 collection as chic (if not more so) than some of the Spring 09 collections we saw in the tents this year? The gliding silks, the rolled up sleeves, the jumpsuits, the color palette of mint, ice blue, nude, and white--it's all too much to handle! As Simon Kneen first full collection for for the brand, we are now prepared to belive that Banana Republic will be the chicest new style destination in the contemporary price bracket. Which makes us wonder if Kneen has been at the helm since January (even if this is his first full collection) have they been achieving this level of chic for months now? We've just been distracted by their sale section (which is so unsightly!) or the fact that the closest one to us is on Broadway which is the Bermuda Triangle of tourist shopping. As a penance, we will be making a stop at their store this weekend...if Spring is this fantastic there must be something to tide us over from the Fall collection.
