This is a Moncler vest so don't get your hopes up. I just posted it to illustrate the style Lululemon may be (totally is) trying to emulate. Word on the street is that tomorrows product drop includes a long knee length puffy vest. This will have major appeal for those of us that are 5'5 and shorter. Ha! right. I do really like this mid hip length Moncler vest though.
I could really have used one today in LA. It was an icy 110 degrees.
ReplyDeletewhile those are super cute and im sure i'll like the one that lulu launches tomorrow (and guarantee i'll be priced out all at the same time); I totally miss the days of Lulu being industry leaders instead of industry copy cat
ReplyDeleteSo right, formerly non 4:41! You hit the nail on the head -- Lululemon was the leader in work out clothes -- not a follower!
ReplyDeleteSo nicely said both of you. Lulu you were popular! Very cute very functional NOT high fashion. Get over yourself and go back to your roots.
DeleteNo thank you. I just passed on Down to it because it was too long for my 5"4
ReplyDeleteIf it is cold enough to want the warmth of a long length down vest like these, then I'm sure I would want my arms covered as well. This doesn't really make much sense to me, it's not really functional, imo.
ReplyDeleteAlso, totally agree that Lululemon is now a wannabe rather than a leader. So sad :(
I was thinking the exact same thing!
DeleteMe too !!! I don't understand vests. If I need my torso covered, I need my arms covered.
DeleteI love them for running around in a car sometimes with a hoodie going to markets, errands etc
DeleteI love ruffles and super feminine details but that light colour vest with the ruffle around the bottom hemline is just hideous, the whole vest is ugly.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I really do not care about if a brand is "hot" or how "high end" or popular it is, if something is ugly then it's ugly, I don't care what brand it is. I also really don't get why Lululemon seems to want to copy all this higher end stuff. To be honest, I'm not into this kind of stuff but even if I was I rarely see something I like from these kinds of brands.
@5:47, I share your thought exactly.
ReplyDeleteI saw some of these types of vests at marshalls the other day and thought "Ew, why?" like, not only do I echo the sentiment that there is NO functional point to a LONG vest, but they just are NOT cute. I don't care if you slap a ruffle on it, or a belt on it or whatever.
ReplyDeleteladies, I think that ruffle at the bottom hemline is a skirt the model is wearing underneath. right?! please tell me so! because I cannot imagine someone designing it like that.
