Favourite Fall Moment: Marni 2016

Marni's Fall collection was about beautiful billowing sleeves, shoulder molding cutaway capes and tailored trousers.

  The collection was romantic with a mix  of modern cuts and prints. 

Consuelo Castiglioni makes you want to
put on statement earrings and dark lipstick.

“This time, the proportions were important; I wanted roundness,”  

“and something romantic, but in a modern way.”

 "I love how chic the harlequin prints on  

    the balloon sleeves are. Definitely, my favourite

      fashion moment at Milan Fashion week."    

Hats Are Couture.

ASOS HATS

Zuhair Murad's Bohemian Collection was an ode to the free spirited Seventies.
I specifically loved the way the Couture  pieces were styled. The co-ordinating  coloured felt hats and waist clutching belts. 
It's easy to change the look of  any outfit with accessories.
I will be creating looks  on here, soon.  
Beautiful Boho done  the Zuhair Murad way. 

Dior Couture Fall 2017

Christian Dior Haute Couture fall collection  was all about the absence of colour.

The black and white garments had an

air of sophistication with sharp 

v necklines, embellished jackets 

and cascading ruffles on the dresses and tops.

The Dior design team have created unique pieces that are  so beautiful. 
So Chic!

Resort 2017

Rosie Assoulin

Rosie Assoulin's showcased her incredible resort collection.

Capes, fruit embellishment, seersucker fabric in blue shades

were in the main trends seen at her summer extravaganza.  

Christopher Kane

Christopher Kane's took inspiration from the modest garden pansy.

  "The pansy seems so simple, so everyday; it just came into 

  my head to use it as the basis for a collection,"  

He described the purity of shape and freshness of the flower 

that is illustrated in his resort collection.  

                                                                              

                                                                                                Dion Lee

                                                                        

Dion Lee's collection was all about reflective light and transparency. Creating glass like textures using sheer fabrics and"Crystal Crochet" made from clear glass beads that accented the trims of  dresses and tops.

Saint Laurent Fall 2016-17

Amid the rumours of Hedi Slimane leaving Saint Laurent, he debuted the  second part of his stunning fall collection  in Paris. 

Hedi described the collection as "80's Camp Couture"

I loved all the black sleek looks especially the black tailored trouser and  leather top with a waist cinching belt and gold jewellery.

If this was Hedi Slimane's goodbye collection.. then what a way to say bye!

Proenza Schouler Fall 16

Proenza Schouler Fall 2016 collection

was all about deconstruction and lace up detail.

“It’s about control and release. Last season we were peeling a

way the layers, this season we were putting them back 

together again, sort of mending.” 

Lazaro Hernandez 

The deconstruction of each of the garment  to create a new style of dress makes Proenza Schouler's  collection completely unusual. 
I love the contrast of the black straps   against the lighter pastel shade fabrics.  

Another outstanding detail was the makeup.
The tomato red lips made a perfect statement  that complemented the whole look.  
The red lipstick used at Schouler  was Mac Lady Danger! 

Rachel Zoe Fall 2016

The Rachel Zoe Fall Presentation was an absolute favourite.

She has always been a major source of inspiration 

for me and her collection shows how far she 

has come as a designer.

Rachel played with a lot of textures.

Furs, knits and beading were just few elements 

that she experimented with, in her designs.

.

My favourite looks were definitely the white blazer 

with silver fringe skirt and oversized 

white knit with pearl details.  

This beautiful show was super wearable and illustrates how much Rachel understands how a woman wants to look.

Tome FW16

 

Tome's Fall collection was a powerful colour  palette base of white and brown,  with a juxtaposing deconstructed pieces against flowy dresses.

    “It’s all about confidence, boldness and strength,”

 Ramon Martin, describing the presentation.

 The designer and Ryan Lobo, were inspired by the 

independence and power of feminist artists Barbara Kruger 

and Mona Hatoum for their fall collection.

   The captivating colours and exaggerated silhouettes  had a beautiful strong attitude with an  ethereal and romantic feel.
I love how incredibly beautiful each  piece of this collection is...

Carvela Winter

These Carvela boots are my winter  go to piece.I have currently been  living in them.
They feel classy and super sophisticated.

 I have always believed that investing  in better shoes and accessories will  always makes your look,  ten times more chic.

You're paying for quality and durability.   Think about creating timeless looks  rather than passing trends.
