Church & State :: Fall 08 Stateside

Remember the gorgeous designs of Church & State, photographed equally beautifully by Chris Hornbecker? (See original post here.) Well, they're back again with a fall collection entitled "Stateside" - a modern twist on Americana colors, inspired by the perceived nuances of how people dress in different parts of the country. The election year tie-in was not lost either - several styles incorporate military elements. I love Rachel and Nathaniel's approach to the collection, and once again the images just suit each design so perfectly (that's why I felt compelled to include about half the lookbook!).
