I love this Mociun Space dress, I’ve been daydreaming about buying it for a while. I love the print, the stellar style is obviously BOT for SS10* but it’s actually really pretty too. The adjustable tie front has a slight mumsy DVF wrap dress feel about it, but I kind of like that. Hell, if kitten heels are coming back may as well got the whole Clapham hog for LK Bennett style Sloane chic. I also like the knee-length, a style I haven’t worn for a while. I do love to get the legs out in a short statement skirt, but it’s starting to feel a little tired and knee-length might be the novel breath of fresh air I need. I want to wear with my black patent brogues and grey tights for now, and in summer with a bleached out denim jacket and sandals.
It does seem a little extravagant for someone who has more than rudimentary sewing skills to drop $252 dollars on a dress. That’s not to say the dress isn’t worth it, it’s gorgeous; it’s just that when you’re a child who was raised in hand-me-downs, Wembley & Portobello market’s finest, and the special offerings from Cromwell’s Madhouse spending real cash on clothes seems insanely frivolous.
I would definitely spend £200 on a pair of Church brogues, but that’s only because I have it on good authority from Anna Goss’ mum that they last for 30 years. Some of the clothes I wear the most have cost just 50p, my denim shirt, a pair of gorgeous country-style heels, a zipped, quilted skirt. I don’t deny that brands like Mociun need to make a profit, but what’s the most you would spend?
