COS You’re Worth It

“COS GOT GOOD and I AM WORTH IT!” is my all new football-chant that Im shouting down from my Emirates-proximate balcony. I wish I could articulate rhythm and diction through writing as it does read a little funny.

The point is, I came, I saw, I bought – I no longer have those cheeky lunch-hour break shopping trips that a lot of people benefit from working in Central London – instead I snuck off to the COS around my hotel in Berlin and started chanting excitedly in my head and leaping upon the new season goodies that have come in. In particular, I attacked this padded grey sweater that is like neoprene upon touch, but is actually cotton padded with polyester. Its sort of a nod to the neoprene Balenciaga A/W 10-11 wordplay dresses and jumpers and in a way, I prefer the COS version just because its an abstract doodle rather than lettering coursing all over the front. There are the usual nods to Marni, Jil Sander and Celine in the new A/W stock that COS manage to do in their own subtle way with a great use of palette too. Ill be popping in and out to check out new deliveries on a regular basis.

I still wish that COS would get with the programme and launch an e-commerce website so that people from non COS-ified countries get to have some fun with this stuff. Speaking of Balenciaga, their spanking new website complete with full e-commerce offering is astonishingly good. Ill even forgive the slow-loading times because the absolute ABUNDANCE of archive, campaign and collections imagery is worth it. Back to COS though… its got to be a certainty that e-commerce is on the cards… lets hope so. You know… COS youre worth it…
