by Giorgia Musci on September 27, 2009

Boru Aksu SS10

25^th London Fashion Week Anniversary: I was waiting for the fashion designers coming back “ home” after years of absence, front rows full again by big fashion industry names ( Anna Wintour, Vogue USA & Franca Sozzani, Vogue ITALIA in primis) , celebrities, sumptuous parties.

Basso Brooke SS10

And show after show, the feeling I had was that the “Londoners” decided to celebrate this important event on the runway as well, catalysing the crowd.

Issa SS10

It is impossible the attention of the viewers has not been attracted by the singularity of fabrics: they take life building the silhouette garments, in particular little dresses, creating optical effects extremely intriguing.

Louise Goldin SS10

Bristling with stiff pleats Louise Goldin

Matthew Williamson SS10

and embellishments MATTHEW WILLIAMSON

AUTUMN WINTER 09 TRENDS VELVET TOUCH

by Giorgia Musci on September 12, 2009

MARC JACOBS AW09

After years Velvet is not just making a comeback on the fashion scene but it’s become the star for A/ W 0910, for a luxurious feel and jewel colours.

CHRISTOPHER KANE AW 09

Nothing to do with the eighties frumpy look: designers gave this soft ancient fabric a contemporary update.

BOTTEGA VENETA AW09

CALVIN KLEIN, BOTTEGA VENETA and especially London’s it-boy CHRISTOPHER KANE reinvented it in an arresting way by giving it a glossy sheen and splicing it in strong stripes and graphics with sheer fabrics.

CALVIN KLEIN AW09

For this season this lustrous fabric is essential to looking sophisticated, stylish and ultra feminine.

FERRE AW09

Whether it’s a sexy shrunken jacket ( FERRE’) , a lilac suit ( KRIZIA) , or a cocktail dresses ( RALPH LAUREN) in plush jewel shades of grape and berry.

Ralph Lauren AW09

This seductive opulent fabrics add newness to sculptured silhouettes, as seen in MARC JACOBS and FERRE’.

D&G AW09

Padded or quilted at D& G in a corset.

BALENCIAGA AW09

Opulent as at BALENCIAGA belted coat.

FENDI AW09

Even a simple velvet headband ( seen at FENDI) will transform any outfit from fine to divine.

ZIPPESQUE TRIUMPH ACCESSORY TREND REPORT AW09

by Giorgia Musci on September 4, 2009

Balmain ankle boots

Zip it up: and not just because the autumn is around the corner.

For a few seasons already, they have been a regular feature in ready-to-wear, adorning clothes everywhere, from the backs of dresses, to the front of skirts and coat, before straight, later on slanted.

Alexander WBagang

Exposed zippers were everywhere on the AW 09/10 collections popping up in some pretty unexpected places: more than function they are become a decorative motif in fashion and for this season especially in accessories, on everything from hair bands to stilettos, giving them a ultra modern 80s look.
