Style File: Phillip Lim Goes For Biker Chicks

Style File Phillip Lim Goes For Biker Chicks 15 Jul 2011, 6:06 pm “It’s called Girls on Bikes, but I like to call it Biker Chicks because it’s funnier,” joked Phillip Lim of his new Fall 2011 video, debuting here exclusively on Style.com. Bikes—the starting point for the collection—are one of the designer’s favorite accessories these days. “On a bike, you are noticing everything around you and you get to take a breath,” he told us. To be sure, Lim’s biker chicks don’t ride wearing leather or spandex gym garb. In the Andrew Paynter-shot video, three models cycle around San Francisco in a green silk parka, a cocktail dress, and a color-blocked tuxedo. “I was researching all these images and found all of these chic girls who ride bikes without compromising their style,” the designer said. “They are really dressed for the day—it’s poetic and beautiful at the same time.” —Kristin Studeman You are receiving this email because you subscribed to this feed at blogtrottr.com.
