First Look! BBlessing’s Utilitarian, Recession-Proof American Classics For Fall

Lower East Side boutique BBlessing's namesake collection has garnered a cult following, largely (but not exclusively!) made up of New York kids in the know and downtown tastemakers. Luckily for you, we got our hands on the brand spankin' new fall '09 lookbook, a collection of classic trenches, roomy duffels, and tough yet comfortable separates. The sparse and melancholy backdrop with our lone hero wanderer may be suggestive of recession times, but you know you'll be running to the store come August for that jacket and those gloves any way. Feast your eyes on more images after the jump.
