MILAN FASHION WEEK: DSQUARED²

Jac
High School Prom as the inspiration for DSQUARED² FW2012 Collection, presented yesterday at Milan Fashion Week. 
Although the Caten brothers often make their women look like bad girls, this is not the case: 
chic and elegant high school students going ready to party with their mates. 


Come ispirazione per la collezione FW2012, presentata ieri alla Settimana della Moda Milanese, DSQUARED² ha scelto il Ballo di Fine Anno.
Nonostante i fratelli Caten siano soliti vestire donne dall' aria un po' cattiva, questa volta hanno voluto cambiare rotta: 
studentesse chic e eleganti pronte a festeggiare con i propri ragazzi. 

Bette Franke

Hanne Gaby Odiele

MAIN
TRENDS:

hats
stiletto shoes, enriched by precious stones
fur
gloves mania
main colours: olive green, blue, pink, purple, yellow & black

NY FASHION WEEK: RALPH LAUREN




February 16, 2012. New York.

It really seems like American designer Ralph Lauren wants to go back to basics.
For the Fall Winter collection 2012 he has presented today in New York there's no doubt he wanted to take inspiration from the past, and especially from the first women collection he created in 1971.
That is why we see very tailored and masculine shapes of the shirts and high-wasted trousers, with reference to the sport the designer has always loved: Polo.
For what concearns the colours, there's a lot of brown and grey but the very protagonist of the show was black. black mixed with gold, red and magenta.

NY FASHION WEEK: KIMBERLY OVITZ


Kimberly Ovitz
at the New York Fashion week has presented an entire collection inspired, as she revealed, by warriors and vengeful heroines. 
The main colour of the collection is therefore black, but we' ve seen some hints of brown and dark reds. 
I appreciate the choice of plain colours, the use of leather and fur. 
Good job, Kimberly!

Kimberly Ovitz ha presentato alla settimana della moda di New York la sua nuova collezion totalmente ispirata, come lei stessa ha rivelato, i guerrieri e alle eroine dall' indole vendicatrice. 
Il colore principale della collezione è dunque il nero, ma si sono anche visti degli accenni di marrone e rossi scuri. 
Apprezzabile la scelta delle tinte unite, dell' uso della pelle e della pelliccia.
Ben fatto Kimberly!

HAUTE COUTURE: ALEXIS MABILLE. PARIS 2012.

Haute Couture
ALEXIS MABILLE
Paris 2012

Alexis Mabille, Paris Haute Couture 2012


The inspiration for the show was anything but pseudo-science. 
Mabille was inspired by a photograph of iconic model Lisa Fonssagrives on a beach, her face suffused with pink from the sunlight coming through her umbrella. A more recent picture of Christy Turlington by Patrick Demarchelier also provided a bit of background.

L' ispirazione per la sfilata è solo la pseudo-scienza.
Mabille è stata ispirata da uno scatto dell' iconica modella Lisa Fonssagrives ritratta in una spiaggia,  con il viso colorato di rosa riflesso dalla luce del sole che era filtrata dal suo ombrello. Anche uno scatto più recente di Christy Turlington, scattata da Patrick Demarchelier, ha garantito una certa ispirazione.
