Fabworthy: Tailcoats, Chains, and Lurex at Abaete
While serenaded by a live string orchestra at Abaete, I fell in love with three things. A "Theodore" tailored jacket in black twill that fulfills my vampire fantasies, the Abaete for Payless "Antoine" fold over black bootie with chain detail (remember they do a designer collaboration every season?), and lurex flecks and waves found on numerous tops and dresses. The collection was pretty Fab as a whole, inspired by Les Incroyables, a fashion subculture of post-revolutionary French society in the 1790s. See what I mean about a vampy vibe?
