    We’re total Phoebe Philo-philes at FASHION. We covet anything and everything Céline. This button-up has been on our wish lists since its pre-Fall 2011 debut. It ticks all the necessary boxes (collars and colour-blocking) and is just statement-worthy enough to make any outfit interesting. Since we’d rather not enter the eBay void of fighting for the last few versions of this shirt that may exist, we decided to create our own!

    Welcome to our new DIY series! Each week, our interns will be recreating some of the best runway looks and most covetable items with step-by-step instructions (and some excellent photo documentation, to boot). And we’re not talking your average tie-dye, but rather, we’re going high-end with pieces from Céline, Prada and Cushnie et Ochs coming down the pipe.

    Craftophobes need not panic—aside from some rudimentary sewing skills, the gals on our team have no training. Plus, we’re using household items to create these looks—think nail files and tweezers—so if we can do it, you most definitely can.
