>>Some designers can happily jump from one theme to another one in polar opposites from one season to the other. Others prefer to hone in on a niche, continue doing so and try and gain a momentum. Baptiste Viry is determined to etch into my brain, the notion that I should give waistcoats some serious thought. His last collection was Praise of the Bust Part 1, and here comes A/W09 Part 2, where Viry is still very much appreciating the bust… or at least, a different kind of bust, looking at the model – i.e. the Fried Eggs category. The last collection was modelled on a more endowed form and it is perhaps a statement on Viry's part that his waistcoats are meant for all shapes and sizes. Nonetheless, the continuation of theme still plagues the brain with the question with whether me and a waistcoat will go hand in hand and look merry together.
This should be a unisex collection, (if they could just change the dart a bit) – I would gobble them up!
Vests are such a fun way to amp up an outfit. These are a bit too equestrian/outdoorsy for my taste though.
gorgeous – love the bow tie one… i have yet to find waistcoats to suit me tho… sigh.

i always used to change my design ideas for every project at uni and i was told off as i never stuck to one style. never understood what was wrong with that
I love the styling in this shoot and the equestrian feel to the collection. I would wear any of these even if it meant strapping down my boobs!
i am so in love. i think i prefer this to part one. i have a thing for vests and waistcoats. i think i have about 10 in my tiny little closet that is obviously overflowing, and i wouldn’t mind adding some of these to my collection! they look really well made and i love the details!
Ooooh I love each and every one of those! Love!

Uh…love it.
I specially heart the “bowtie”
Mm, i love the third one! They’re wonderful for layering – i think you’d be able to do great things with a vest, Susie!

Suspendrers have never been so cool.
Regardless of the implications for body types, I love these. The earthy colours and creative genius is fabulous, not to mention I really want anything suspender related.
I agree with Belinda, wicked layering piece!
Fabulous and so equestrian!!!!!

I like them, and I am not much of a vest fan so thats saying something! However, I’m not really a fan of vests being worn open (and I don’t often make generalizations like that) but some of these are wicked in their own right and would probably look best worn open.
Love the outfit but I’m wondering..is he he or she?
Many people still love wearing 90’s fashion.. anyway what brand of sunglasses is that? and what the gender of that model?
