But its not enough yet! More from Dazed. After the omg serious last two posts, this is feeling really good.
I like the composition of these next two, a bit beyond the average gif, good rhythm.

Smoke + lace + black roses + cobwebs = Alexander McQueen
TOPMAN DESIGN:

Still with Dazed, but this below they found at Fashion Intern Problems on Tumblr. None can resist Ja'mie.
From Fashion Intern Problems, "During the Marc by Marc Jacobs Show, NYFW AW14"
Which segues us to Ted Baker because I say it does:
Colonel Pin Strip, Miss Polka Dot, Rev Tartan, Miss Hounds Tooth and Professor Paisley
I was very keen to include a Thom Browne gif in here cos I admire his designs so much but couldnt find a really cool one but I DID find these guys, Reed & Rader who are AMAZING and make AMAZING gifs. I came across them here and here's two that I really really love.
OVERWORLD; Fashion Follies meet Mario Bros. Jean Paul Gaultier's Jacket and Shorts, Christian Siriano's Coat. 2012.
From the shoot "Fashion at the Circus; A Freak Show." Top by Christian Dior. 2011.
And here's some that have nothing to do with fashion, but which I find I have every sympathy with. They're like the inside of my head. Out of focus, check. Dimly lit, check. Flip to hard reset, check. Static, check. Stuck in endless cycle of baby-Jesus-knows what kind of pattern, check. Lovin' on a bit of Tumblr ambiguity, check.
Oddly calming aren't they? Mesmerically beautiful, great landscapes.
We're done. Pretty patterns, moving pictures, I'm feeling much better and that's the name of the game. Yeeeeeah.
But wait. Way to keep the good gif going:
Isn't this the coolest thing?! I love this! Find it here.
