Fingerless gloves for Fall/Winter- 08.16.07
So while doing my usual daily online shopping/browsing (NotCouture is my excuse…), I can’t help but notice some trends. Today fingerless gloves grabbed my attention because I came across like 10 different pairs. I don’t think I’ve ever seen this many before in past seasons. Jean theorizes it’s because of the proliferation of Blackberries and iPhones and whatnot, and it’s very difficult to txt using regular gloves. I think it’s perhaps for those fashiony types who need to keep their hands warm while going out for a smoke in the cold winters of NYC..? But I don’t have an explanation for why I suddenly want a pair of these… I don’t smoke and I don’t have a Blackberry or iPhone! Pictured above (from left to right) are the Whitney arm warmers by Marc by Marc Jacobs, Dior Homme runway sleeves, and fingerless gloves by Generra.
Even more fingerless gloves after the jump!
these are fantastic!!! edgy and very interesting….
i was thinking that if you wanted to save money a good way to make a pair of these gloves would be to buy a pair of legwarmers and just cut a hole for your thumb…since they are made for your legs they would be kind of big at the top, but maybe that could be stylish, since the style is kind of hobo-chic.
thanks so much for posting this, i love it! :)
