Their reasons for shopping The Reformation on the regular could be its low environmental impact from only using vintage clothing and dead stock fabric, or the one-of-a-kind quality of it being made by hand in-house, or the sexy effects of lace, washed silk, breezy prints and zippers. All of those points and more have driven Fashion Indie to it, making this week’s Boutique Critique sustainably sexy.

Look Five: Spring Spins Sheer and Long

Boutique Critique:: The Reformation NYC: Look 5

The Sheer Tie Dye Skirt: $175

The dyed effect on this clear piece brings ethereality. It’s meant to layer, so I kept my blinding purple American Apparel tights on underneath. The leggings are low slung, and I’ve hiked the skirt up, leaving my skin only partially exposed, good for a summertime peekaboo.

The Summer Vest Dress: $195

Hitting floor length and speckled with florals, this garment is flexible in its wear. Pull it open for an all-encompassing vest, or close it for a lovely sweeping dress. And it gives me slight vibes of Easter Sunday, which I suppose makes sense, as it’s been reborn.

The Cashmere Crop: $105

Soft and delicious is this little top. It squeezes right into this look, its lavender picking up the purples throughout. In the mid-weather Spring, it’ll keep you cuddling warm with a jacket, but will still be working alone with a high waist. The shoulders stay aloft with substantial facing, acting as its own shoulder pads.

Not sure why I hated when my mom wore shoulder pads, because they’re my new favorite look.  After seeing Lykke Li at Webster Hall in a pink jacket with amazing shoulders, I’ve decided this is the next big thing. Such a dramatic, awesome look. Awesome job, Tao

Strong Shoulders, Not For the Weak Minded

We heard of the comeback of the strong shoulders, but this is the first time I’ve actually seen it on streets. Def not for the weak minded, this look excudes confidence and a very fashion forward attitude.

Thanks Sartorialist for the pics

Been seeing and hearing of the return of the shoulder pads, not a fan, but loving this coat with very distinct angular shoulder pads.
