Milan Fashion Week Gucci S/S 2013

20 Sep

Milan fashion week Gucci Spring/Summer 2013.

I LOVED all the beautiful brights colors in this collection as well as the flouncy sleeves and ruffles.  The palette included fuchsia, yellow, cobalt blue and teal among others.  The accessories were pretty great too, I would wear every strappy heel that strutted down that runway and I really liked the heavily jeweled necklines and collars. This collection was definitely bright and beautiful.

NYFW Rachel Zoe S/S 2013

13 Sep

Rachel Zoe Spring/Summer 2013 collection.

Inspired by the 70’s and Jane Birkin’s androgynous aesthetic, this collection was the epitome of sexy cool.  Effortless glam came to mind over and over.  The palette included beautiful teals, mints as well as neutrals and black & white combos.  The accessories were pretty amazing as well…… I loved the bags, hats and necklaces, very reminiscent of the Halston era, which I love!

NYFW Carolina Herrera S/S 2013

11 Sep

Carolina Herrera Spring/Summer 2013 collection.

What a pleasant surprise!!!! I must admit I’ve come to expect the same beautiful collections from Carolina Herrera, she has a very easy to identify aesthetic, almost predictable.  This collection, however was not the norm for her.  Was it beautiful as usual? yes!  Was it the same as usual?……not at all!  For a change, this collection included so many fresh and modern pieces in addition to her usual gowns.  The lines were clean, most looks were belted at the waist and there was plenty of color and geometric prints. The embellished collars were pretty amazing too. I am totally impressed…..I know designers can venture out of their fashion box only to find disastrous results, not this time…… well done!

NYFW Marc Jacobs S/S 2013

11 Sep

Marc Jacobs Spring/Summer 2013 collection. I think Jacob’s channelled his inner Tim Burton for this collection.  There was no shortage of boldly patterned pieces with stripes being the main course!!  Every take on a stripe was included, vertical, horizontal, thin, wide etc.  Boxy shapes dominated the modern, yet very 60’s inspired collection.

NYFW Victoria Beckham S/S 2013

10 Sep

Victoria Beckham Spring/Summer 2013 collection.

This former spice girl who was laughed at when she first announced her love for design is a now a force to be reckoned with.  Her only four year old label is fast becoming the show to watch at fashion week.  Beckham’s palette included black, white, beige and punches of a bright orangey/tomato red hue. She remained true to her clean yet sexy aesthetic with her lady like pieces and trademark body-con dresses. This is the best work I’ve seen from Beckham, very nice!

P.S. More knee high sandals!!!!!!!!
