Rag Report dives under the covers of fashion publications to rant or rave about all the glossy goodness.
Duck and take cover because this spring brings an onslaught of military and combat inspired pieces. In the March 2010 issue of Nylon, model Yulia Leontieva wears this season’s military inspired garb in an urban landscape. Each of the looks adds a dash of femininity to counteract the rugged feel of the military pieces.
The first look incorporates the military trend with an army green anorak and Palladium combat boots. To offset this masculinity, the stylist added pale pink voluminous shorts and a Burberry belt. This look is the perfect mix of hard and soft.
Camouflage should be left on the battlefield. We find this transparent dress tacky, although it is paired with a perfect green blazer and rebellious, fingerless motorcycle gloves. We also love the single braid in her hair, a big beauty trend for spring.
The spread ends on a good note, though, with a nod to retro battlefield uniform. The destroyed t-shirt adds a dirty, unruly vibe to counteract the uptight uniformed look of the jacket. The combination of a giant bangle and sunglasses makes this one look we’re coveting for spring.
We can’t wait to try out this trend in the coming months.
