I must share with you an absolutely amazing find via a quick 5:30AM look at Dirty Flaws, being a label called InAisce (possibly pronounced 'in aska', from the Gaelic 'in vain'), from Brooklyn-based designer Jona. These photos are from the F/W 11/12 'Ashen Tundra, Frozen Roads' collection, which simultaneously makes me think of Alexander McQueen, Sruli Recht, and Cormac McCarthy's The Road. While previous online write-ups on InAisce categorize it as menswear, this collection may (or may not) show a slight divergence in Jona's impeccably tailored and perfectly detailed coats and jackets, though all these pieces would work equally well on any slim (and non-conformist) body. I'll likely go see if IF in Soho still has some of the S/S 11 in February, but I would love to set my eyes on this particular collection in person (or, better yet, try a piece on) while I'm in Brooklyn. Indeed, I could definitely be convinced to save up any spending monies from this year for when this collection is released to the world. Definitely.

Oh you beat me to it! I saw this on Dirty Flaws, as well as a few other blogs, I guess it's making the rounds, and was going to make a somewhat gushy post about how much I love this collection. I'm really tempted to hunt down some of these pieces, but I'm afraid if I were to actually find them I wouldn't be able to resist buying one...or a few. I have no concept of a budget!
This is so good.
Ah sorry! I think you should post about the collection too. It deserves it. The photos were just posted on the InAisce Facebook a couple of hours before I wrote my post, so that makes sense that it's on a bunch of blogs. I also don't think I could resist buying myself a piece. There are some pieces from a previous collection on sale at Layers, but it's really this collection that I want...
