Not sure about this pre fall collection..

Versace pre fall 2010.
The Spring collection D.Versace showed in Milan back in September was amazing :young, confident, fresh and dead sexy.So why mess up a good thing?
She seems to have gotten her inspiration from Tokyo and it s neon lights..
However I believe these looks don t look flattering on a normal figure ..I mean u have to be super skinny to pull these looks off and let s face not all women are super skinny..

Karl Langerfeld Chanel Pre fall 2010 Shanghai.

This collection was futuristic with a disco vibe.
The Jetsons meets the disco era!
It s almost as if this fashion show were a play..
"Clothes-wise it involved glancing references to Chinese sartorial history, from the terra-cotta army through cheongsams, Mandarin split-sided Qipao gowns, deep lacquer-red embellishments and silk linings, Mongolian tapestry boots and shaggy furs, and spins on Communist Mao suits and comrade caps."
Enough said here see for yourself:

Cavalli,Rossi accessories s/s 2010

Love the chain detail on the Roberto Cavalli sandals (which are detachable but i wouldn t remove them)..
Sergio Rossi is all about shape and patterns not sure about them yet but i m sure it will grow on me..

Accessories are all about color for s/s 2010..

It seems that all the designers agree on one thing color is in!!!
I decided to group Louis Vuitton and Pierre Hardy together because for me those 2 collection are very fresh young and funky..
Some would say these look kitch but paired up properly i think that the accessories on this slide show would spice up any outfit and make it interesting...U be the judge!
One thing is sure designers got creative this season and those bags cannot be copied thank heavens for that!!!!

Jimmy Choo summer 2010 accessories

I love the indie,boho vibe,the shoes are fun funky young and very appealing to me can t wait to get my hands on these and actually wear them !!!
Oh how i m looking forward to those summer days and nights!!!hahaha...

Spring 2010 Accessory report:Christian Louboutin.

What it s all about: high wedges,fun bags,high heels,colors lots of bright colors..
The verdict:
I always love what Louboutin does but some of those shoes are not my cup of tea although I know they ll be worn i prefer his resort collection.

Vogue Nov 2009 cover



You got to be kidding me?
Nicole Kidman, Marion Cotillard, Penelope Cruz Kate Hudson which star in the upcoming film Nine together, but they don't look anything like they normally do.Hello photoshop!!!
I think they deserve separate covers..

what do u think?

Michael Kors on what s hot this fall.

Project runway judge and fabulous designer , Michael Kors, sat down with Access Hollywood to talk about what's hot and trendy this fall.

He point out the trends and gives great advice on how to wear them and god knows he knows what he s talking about.

He says:

"BLACK
Black is the new Black!
This Fall there was tons of black, but this is not basic black.
Try for a more architectural shape - think origami folds and tucks.

NEON
The 80s are back!
It is the color of the season, but be careful keep the shape clean - a strapless sheath or a collarless coat.

TAILORING
We need to accept that suit is not a dirty word.
It’s time to return to tailoring - a strong shoulder, but no 80s power suits.
There is a whole generation of 20-year-olds who now need invest in a great suit.

MAJOR SHOES
Tough clothes call for tough shoes - black patent platform pumps, mary janes and strappy heels.

STRUCTURED ACCESSORIES
A stainless steel trim clutch.
Architectural shoes.
Bold necklace - think a chic bike chain choker."


SO SPOT ON..

GO GET YOURSELF A TAILORED SUIT WITH ARCHITECTURAL SHAPE.

Miu Miu spring summer 2010 rtw preview

Louis Vuitton spring summer 2010

Model strutted down the runway in huge afros.
When asked what the look was Jacobs responded:
"about travelers—the movement that came after punk. Then we were thinking about hiking, trekking, and then denim and parkas—city utilitarianism."
What did this mean?
The first looks were japan inspired though it was hard define and find
a label for the sporty, couture-ish, military, metallic, glittery layering that was happening . Included were brocade cycling shorts, pleated kilt belts, army pocketed jackets, neon and nude camouflage dresses, and LV dyed denim looks with fringed edges. Among the sport mesh and draping there was a splash of a brilliant green pailletted number (was so cute and hot even though it looked a bit out of place).
The accessories were luxe,young and funky as Jacobs has been rightfully doing these last season.
overall a 10/10 for me!!!
Love LV!!!!Marc Jacobs certainly knows how to put up a good show and impress!

Elie Saab 2010 rtw s/s

When hearing the name E.Saab one thing comes into mind amazing red carpet dresses and cocktail looks.
Mr Saab has not dissapointed and I can so see these looks on the red carpet.
From LBD with amazing drapery and detail to colorful long gowns with embellishments this collection oozes glamour and class.
Well done Mr Saab I am in awe!!!


Hermes spring summer 2010 rtw

Looking at this collection it is clear where JPG got his inspiration:sports particularly tennis.
The words that describe this collection best are:glamorous sportswear.
The basis of this collection seems to be white and then there is this added splash of color.
The shape,flow if the garments is amazing not crazy about the tennis headbands on all the models though.The clothes are wearable and I m loving the updated oversize version of the Birkin.

yes or no?

Rihanna at Chanel.
hot or not?

Focus on McQueen...

Ok I agree these are very creative and i congratulate McQueen for his innovative design but are these actually wearable?



Yes it s a work of art but is it worth buying them to just stare at them????

Foreseeking the future at A.McQueen

Futuristic look,outer space woman,those are the words that come into mind when thinking of this collection.
Fashion and art seem to emerge,but to be honest i don t think these clothes are wearable.
Success or failure ?have a look and decide...


Chanel s/s 2010



The clothes and decor were just fabulous.

Here s the fashion review:

By Sarah Mower
"Chanel was up at cockcrow for a gigantic fashion romp in the hay. A huge barn had been conjured up in the center of the Grand Palais, and the models emerged from it, wheat ears clinging to their tousled blond Bardot beehives, straw stuck to their clothes, and a little smirk and stagger in their step as if just caught out at you-know-what. Naughty, naughty! Between them, the Chanel country coquettes managed to flirt their way around every rustic reference in Karl Lagerfeld's extensive repertoire of craft-y couture skills, from hopsack to basket weave and cane work to aprons, dirndls, peasant-y poppy prints, and fantastic wooden double-C clogs. It was a bumper harvest of everything that is chicly tattered, beribboned, and gloriously made about Chanel, as well as the season's sole experience to make the anxiety and earnestness around fashion evaporate, to make it seem like fantastic fun again.

Never mind the hay, Lagerfeld was on a roll. Digging into a theme can sometimes throw up some embarrassing puns, and the effort to be youthful has occasionally had off-beam results at Chanel. But with this collection, Lagerfeld's summing up of the season's tendencies—beige, ivory, and black; rough textures; transparency and lace—was spun into a collection so masterfully balanced between classicism and current fashion affairs that the whole thing felt delightfully sure-footed. The knack was that he didn't rush it—just let the thing keep bouncing out in a sustained variation of caramels, taupes, and ecrus, all logically adapted to the house's nubby tweed suits, frothy blouses, and fluttery chiffons. The editing of everything to short lengths looked sweet without being chichi—the test being that every teenage girl looked naturally at home in the little thigh-split skirts (that's what has happened to the bottom half of the Chanel suit), as well as in the mini-crinis and ruffled dance dresses.

Prince and Rihanna were competing for attention in the front row; there was a surprise turn from Lily Allen, who rose out of the floor on a hoedown platform to belt out a saltily worded country number; and at the end, Freja Beha Erichsen, Lara Stone, and Lagerfeld's constant companion, Baptiste Giabiconi, were literally rolling around in the hay together. And yet, remarkably, the clothes never became a sideshow. In a season when celebrities, concepts, and a lot of forgettable mediocrity have got in the way of seeing why luxury fashion should merit the price, this was a Chanel triumph.

Ingenuity at RM by Roland Mouret.




The Galaxy, the Titanium, the Moon that have become endlessly copied classics are what made Roland Mouret's name.

The man can drape and that s why the fashion world loves him. And his tailoring is fabulous.


Mouret manages to mix both and that s what makes this collection so beautiful.

Success Success Sucess!!!

Stella Mc Cartney s s 2010..



"Trey Speegle's giant paint-by-number canvas spelling out the word YES at the back of Stella's runway summed up the mood of today's collection quite succinctly. These were uncomplicated, upbeat, and above all colorful clothes for women who prefer not to think too hard about getting dressed but still want to look young, sexy, and chic. It's a sentiment that McCartney, a mother of three young children and the head of a growing fashion empire, understands intimately—as do her loyal customers, including front-row pal Gwyneth Paltrow.

The actress, who sat sandwiched between Stella's dad, Sir Paul, and Charlotte Rampling, wore a McCartney blazer and skinny denim. Both made appearances on the runway, but these weren't the designer's signature elongated, borrowed-from-the-boys shapes. Instead, she took her tailoring in a more feminine direction. Jackets in silvery raw silk shantung came with a graceful ruffle down one lapel, or a sweet peplum, and were paired with wrapped-waist, relaxed silk pants. Denim turned up as a pinafore and as easy button-front A-line skirts, worn with a silk shirt or a lace cami and jacket. Wedge cork Linda sandals, inspired by McCartney's late mother, complemented the clothes' slightly retro seventies feel.

"Summer's not about aggression," the designer said backstage, and that thinking extended into evening, for which she proposed red, blue, and orange rose-print pleated dresses edged at the neckline and hem with swirls of ruffles. The collection won't necessarily situate her in Spring's big conversations about sheerness or lingerie (she did transparency and lace last season). Not that she minds. "I wanted to teach my customers not to be afraid of the simple stuff," she said. McCartney clearly isn't, and it's that kind of confidence that makes her clothes so winning. "

Karl Lagerfeld s/s 2010



The basis of the collection was shorts.
Lagerfeld pushed his idea with all-in-one playsuits but i m not sure i like the end result..

Emanuel Ungaro s/s 2010

With Lindsay Lohan as creative advisor this collection left fashion critics unimpressed.
Personally i don t like all those hearts here and there and find the clothes really plain and boring..
have a look.

Hit or miss?

Here are some of the looks Rihanna wore at Paris fashion week thus far..




Hit or miss you decide..

G spot..

Yes you read right this is the name of the entry!
You may be wondering at this point why i named this entry "G spot"...
I named it such because that s the name/theme of Jean Paul's Gaultier s/s 2010 rtw collection.
Underwear has been a dominant theme on runways this season and Mr Gaultier is no outcast to this trend who can forget Madonna's notorious cone-bra corset?
The forms it came down on the runway:
the bodice of satin engineer-striped overalls, the military section underneath a green-drab skirtsuit, and again with a pair of shorts during the finale's panty parade. I would have been so embarrassed if i were a model on that runway..Mind you one model really did look uncomfortable and embarrassed.
Ok having said this time to show you the runway show..

Section 1 of the show:
Denims.layered looks.engineer striped overalls..




Section 2:
Military looks.Brights.



Section 3:suits,graphic looks.




Section 4:lingerie looks.sheer looks,sporty looks.




I know some of the looks are a bit out of section but that s the order is which JPG showcased the looks on the runway so...
