Amelia Earhart

I am always fascinated by characters, male or female, who live outside of the social bounderies of their time.  Amelia Earhart has long been a symbol of the American individualism.  Determined to go her own way,  she lived her life without regret, and came close to circumnavigating the globe before her death.

This weekend a movie about her life staring Hilary Swank opens this weekend.

Below are looks from the Hermes Fall collection that are reminiscent of that explorer spirit that Earhart personified.

So where do we think Amelia Earhart would live if she was in New York today?  Perhaps 145 Hudson Street?  Stay tuned.
