London Fashion Week Favorites!(and a quick definition of fashion week, for those who don’t know)

17 Sep

Week two of the month-long fashion frenzy around the globe is wrapping up and I have some favorites to share.

I was asked to explain fashion week by quite a few people, so here it goes…….Fashion “month” occurs twice a year and is a showcase of designers Spring/Summer collections and Fall/Winter collections. These collections are shown in advance giving buyers time to fill orders and stock up just in time for the season.  For example, right now it’s Fall and the designers are showing their upcoming Spring/Summer collection, and during Spring, designers showcase their fall/winter collections.  Notice I said fashion MONTH earlier- that is because fashion week takes place over four consecutive weeks in four different countries, totaling a month of FUN! Is there an order? YES fashion week starts in New york, then jumps across the pond to London, followed by Milan and ending in Paris! There you have it fashion week/month summed up.

There are also other smaller scale fashion weeks across the globe, but the four countries listed are the main players in the fashion game!

Let’s get to my London fashion week faves!

Oooooooh Lordie where do I begin with this collection? Elie Saab designs some of the most remarkable pieces in fashion, every season year after year!!!!! Known for his amazing embroideries and appliqués, the designer’s  Fall collection did not disappoint! So many glorious looks cascaded down the runway and will without a doubt be seen a many red carpets in the future. The rich color palette included emerald, burgundy and dusty rose. With no shortage of sparkle and sexy, this is my favorite collection featured at paris fashion week! Bravo Elie Saab!

Milan Fashion Week! Gucci F/W’14!

19 Feb

Milan Fashion Week has kicked off with a bang and the Gucci Fall/Winter 2014 collection has set the bar pretty high! Frida Giannini definitely brought it!!!!!! She channeled the “good ol’ Gucci” days with a 60’s/70’s inspired collection that included mod minis and boots galore! There was no lack of pretty pastels and the sharp tailoring we have come to expect from the Italian design house!! I really love this collection!
