Put aside your bitterness at Lee’s announcement that he was throwing Australia Fashion Week on the scrap heap and focus on the soft-yet-utilitarian beauty that is part two of Line II A/W 2012 (the first lookbook was released in January). Continuing in the same blue-collar vein as Line II’s previous outings but using a softer hand, pants are perfectly slouchy, shirts are quintessentially Lee and structured jackets are begging to have their collars popped. There are even relaxed dresses aplenty in a terrific boiler suit blue, linking this second drop with part one of the collection while steering clear of the grease and spray-paint.
Be prepared.
