MARNI AT H&M. MARCH, 8 2012.

TODAY WAS THE DAY!

After several months waiting for the launch of the capsule collection for H&M 

created by Consuelo Castiglioni,

 today, the 8th of March all the supporters and lovers of MARNI had a very quick chance to grab the best pieces of the collection, before it was sold out.

I must admit I was among those people. 

But I was not one of those that got up at an ungodly hour to be first in front of the windows of H&M,

perhaps because I was sure the men corner would not be overcrowded. 

and that' s what happened in fact. 

Despite the long cue outside the store in Corso Vittorio Emanuele in the centre of Milan, 

I easily got to the men corner and managed to buy the fab shirt I was waiting for! 

men shirt. 39.95 euros.

GIVENCHY. BLACK IS THE KEYWORD.

Daniele Braga

Black is the new black. 

This is not a typing mistake, but it's clear that for next Winter Season 

black will be the dominant colour. 

For Givenchy in particular. 

What Riccardo Tisci (creative director of the brand) has presented at the Parisian Runway Show this week is an entire collection based on very dark colours. 

Tisci said that the feminine side of the collection was inspired by the seventies photography of 

Guy Bourdin, and the result is clear. 

Red takes an important rule in little details and accessories such as belts and gloves especially, 

which seem to be a must have for next Winter. 

Olive green, orange, sky blue and purple.

To me this is one of the best shows seen in Paris, 

I appreciate the mix of shades of colours

and the ab-use of leather in almost every single outfit. 

Riccardo Tisci is definitely doing a great job!

PARIS FASHION WEEK: KENZO.

This season KENZO turned out to be the hottest and most powerful show on the Parisian calendar.

Thanks to the creativity of Humberto Leon and Carol Lim, the brand has been able to renew itself in a way that we hadn't seen for years.

A big stress in tailoring is seen in coats and high-waisted skirts.
Amazing mix of wool and leather for boots and shoes.  

A lot of knitwear, perfectly combined with silk and leather.
The coats are perfectly matched with the other garments, thanks to the different shades of olive green, orange, yellow and blue and red.

Grazie alla creatività di Humberto Leon e di Carol Lim, il marchio ha saputo rinnovarsi come non succedeva da anni. 
Un forte richiamo alla sartoria si nota nella confezione di cappotti e delle gonne a vita alta. 
Magnifico mix di lana e pelle per scarpe e stivali. 
Molta maglieria in lana, ben combinata con seta e pelle. 
I cappotti si abbinano magnificamente con gli altri capi, grazie alle sfumature di verde oliva, arancio, giallo e blu e rosso.

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.
