Dolce & Gabbana Spring Summer 2013

The show I have been waiting all year for, I love Dolce & Gabbanna. And this year, they've made it better than ever. Their AW collection was a blast, with 'Baroque Romanticism' and now this! The show was filled with fun designs, similar to something you'd find in Spain or Sicily, the collection was very cultural and simply beautiful.








What do you think of the D&G Spring Summer collection?

Burberry Prorsum Spring Summer 2013

Burberry, where should I begin? Well, I just watched an online video of the show, I thought it was amazing. The start was very light and fresh, with the use of metallics in contrast with traditional materials. From the runway, the biggest trend was metallics, very colourful ones too consisting oranges, pinks, blues, greens and of course yellow! I'm quite surprised with front row though, Dita von Teese next to Harry Styles from One Direction? I don't think so.

Below are a few of my favourites from the show:





Christopher Bailey knows how to dress both men & women...always with a touch of sincerity & magic.



What do you think of the use of metallics for summer?

The Alexander Wang RTW fashion show held in New York City was very interesting, consisting of  cut-outs, futuristic styles, and even a glow-in-the-dark dress! Check out the images below!


The jacket is simply amazing



LOVE this one!
And there you have it! What did you think of the collection? I liked it, very futuristic and modern. Not very wearable to the public though, but who cares? C'est mode!

69th Venice Film Festival Fashion Report

The review for this week is the 69th Venice Film Festival held in Venice, Italy during 29/08/12 - 08/09/12. Day one began with superb weather & fashionable A-list guests, from the likes of Kate Hudson, Naomi Watts & model Laetita Casta. There is so much to discuss, so we'll begin immediately.

   1. Kate Hudson

 Kate stunned as she arrived in Altier Versace, whilst her company, Matt Bellamy looked dash in a suit and quirky sunglasses. Kate looks amazing, the dress suits her very well, the nude tone dress looked amazing whilst the paparazzi were taking their pictures with flash. 9/10 - Everything looks good, even the hair & make-up!

   2. Naomi Watts

  Naomi Watts chose a nude lacy gown by Marchesa & accessorised with her partner Liev Schreiber who previously starred in 'SALT', with Angelina Jolie in 2010. I'm not too sure about this one, perhaps she's too short? I feel like the dress is wearing her, rather than the other way around. 6/10 - The dress is wearing her & that's never a good sign.

   3.  Laetita Casta

 French model Laetita, amazed & dazzled in this revealing, black dress by Dolce & Gabbana. I think its one of the best looks of the evening, she looks very chic! The cut of the sleeves is the perfect length and the fit is nicely done. What am I am more amazed by is the lace work, just look at it! 10/10 - Viva la Dolce & Gabbana! 
 
   4. Daniela Virgilio

Italian actress Daniela Virgilio wore a unique gown for the event, standing out amidst a sea of goddess gowns. Paired with strappy Fendi sandals, smoky eyes and a black clutch, she was one of the most best dressed. I think this look is very cute, I love the detailing of the dress with the small repetitive prints of navy flowers. 8/10 - Unfortunatley, I'm not a big fan of the detailing where the top 1/2 of the torso is.

   5. Isabelle Adriani

Woah...I mean, woah! Italian actress Isabelle Adriani, shocked others as she arrived to the festival in a fairytale like dress, giving her fairytale writer background, it is believable though. I don't like it at all, it should belong to unfashionable girls in high school, even then. What are they thinking?! 2/10 - Her make-up is nice though...

That just about wraps up day one! Let's see how the rest will set themselves apart from todays guests.

Style must haves: Baroque designs

Lately I have fallen in love with baroque designs, spotted on the runways of Dolce & Gabbana, to Lady Gaga to even the girls of 2NE1 in their latest music video for 'I love you'. Baroque is a style of design that never goes out of trends, anyone from a mature woman in her 60s to a young girl can pull of baroque. Only if, she wears it correctly.

Baroque was a huge trend on the runways this season, everyone from D&G to Balmain designed with baroque in mind for their latest collection. The prints were shown very extravagantly which was very elegant, yet bold and strong.

Secondly, a few celebrities have been spotted sporting this trend, from the likes of Anne Hathaway to Lady Gaga. Anne went simple in J.Mendel Resort 2013, whereas Lady Gaga wore Moschino in whilst Romania.

Finally, one of the most talked about in Korea right now. 2NE1's music video for their latest single: 'I love you'. The video sees the girls sporting designs by Roberto Cavalli which all have an element of Baroque designs.


And there you have it, baroque is a trend that you will see a lot this season, thus because of its elegance and strong impact to an outfit.
