LARS ANDERSSON: WOMEN'S F/W '10 IS HERE

Lars Andersson's Fall/Winter '10 Women's collection has made its way to Blackbird, just in time for the arctic takeover of our little City. Inspired by the dark artistry of Odd Nerdrum, the women's collection offers the same whimsical darkness as the men's collection and is full of beautiful drapes set on an incredible dark color pallet. All of the pieces in the collection have been hand-made by Lars Andersson in his Brooklyn studio, which is one more reason to love this label.

The collection is now available in Blackbird and until we get it up online we'll be happy to take orders over the phone or via e-mail for those of you outside of Seattle.

Read more about Lars Andersson on our earlier feature.

Boat Neck Asymmetrical Dress, $648

Draped Neck Asymmetrical Dress, $708

Kimono Wrap, $840
