Fancy This

Lungta de Fancy’s Fall Collection

Scribbling poetry got you through a stormy adolescence. Praise the Lord Byron, you’ve since buried the art and any evidence of its mediocrity (no elegy required).

But darkly poetic attire still sets your quill a-quiver.

Slip on a romantic blouse by London line Lungta de Fancy (forgo the black lipstick and angst, please) for some inspired verse. The flowing lines, ruffles, exquisite fabrics, and bold collars and cuffs are more delightful than somber.

Designer Mai Morimoto has called on the sartorial tradition and eclecticism of Olde England to create hauntingly feminine clothing that’s eminently wearable.

Just remember to pair it with a smile.

You ode it to yourself.
