Graey is now onto episode 12 and she’s had a few ups and downs so i thought I should check in on her…. Now more so than ever, I’m being quite choosy about what to buy etc and when you come across lines that are elevate basics, you feel like you might have heard it all before. However, I’ve followed Janet Kim’s collection Graey NY right from the beginning and when I received my new bit of Graey, I knew I had to follow it up. The lace cut-out leggings which I was lusting after are even more pretty in person and wearing them today, I can’t stop touching the lace bits that add this attractive texture and as I said before look like they are snaking up the legs like growing ivy or something. The exposed skin is also weirdly alluring but I also like the idea of adding a pair of lace tights underneath to add a different sort of texture which I have done below. For AW08-9, Janet has developed a design that incorporates sheer and opaque jersey panels… a clever take on what high end designers do with mesh and silk etc and has a really subtle yet effective look when worn. I may not be able to afford the ¬£100,000 haute couture deets but at least somebody is taking note and producing them on a more casual level.
A New Bit of Graey



hmm i much prefer the navy version that you have rather than the black&white version that she’s selling online. the subtle peekaboo effect is simply divine (and it looks even better the way you layered it) but i could never justify spending that amount of money on a pair of tights.
Now I’m lusting for those leggings, they’re gorgeous!
They’re fantastic! They look great.
I just checked out her site, and have to say Tanya’s right, the black/white version isn’t nearly as nice as yours.
They do look very nice and creative!
ooh… $100,00 tights? that’s so amazing. i do like your more casual version…
🙂
oh. my. god. those are amazing. AMAZING.
Very cool.
Gorgeous…very modern baroque.
those are to die for. i love all these new tights- am also craving the studded pair and the fringe pair that was posted on kingdom of style awhile back. so amazing!
those are beautiful!

Those tights are amazing.
Oh wow. I LOVE these!
loove the thight, I am not really feeling the top.. :z
love the tights!
woah, your tights are beyond amazing! they are absolutely spectacular. the whole outfit is really tasteful, nice 🙂
Wow, those tights are absolutely gorgeous!
I got really scared then – I thought you had insanely hairy feet! Thankfully it’s just the tights. phew.
where did your other boob go in that top?
Anon: Ah see that’s what I thought when I first saw the pic but then I looked at the top and it was double stiched so it’s not exactly sheer…. no need for bras underneath if you so wish (I go braless most of the time because of lack of boobs alas…)
The leggings are amazing! I really like the extra lace tights underneath. =)
LOVE the sheer net bits, would be cool to layer up tights in the winter for different colours underneath. also loving your top!
i love janet! she’s really nice and sweet AND super talented, and i wish her the best success~!
It’s a very clever peek-a-boo execution. Little bits showing is far more interesting than exposing vast expanses.
those are gorgeous. you know i like coming around here and getting remind to not be too practical. it’s always a relief. anyway. i want those tights.
SUSIE!
You look so classy!
May I call you Susan?
thanks for the shoutout, susie! love the combo of the lace tights (where did you get those?) under the cutouts. that never occurred to me. wish you were in ny to help me style an upcoming shoot…
