Alexander Mc Queen COLLECTION Spring ’12 Women’s ready-to-wear PARIS

                                         ALEXANDER  MC QUEEN –  PARIS 

A “signature” and ambiguously pretty collection was shown in Paris recently at Alexander Mc Queen. Sarah Burton created a perfect collection capturing the essence of what the original creator, the late Alexande Mc Queen,  was all about-dramatic pieces of wearable art with a certain edge.

Dramatic wearable art [as fashion] perfect for the modern-day warrior goddesses.

Please take a look at my favorite pieces.  Sarah Burton indeed has made her mentor [Alexander]  very proud!

I hope you will agree with me – this is “museum quality” work of art!

The 1950’s influenced femininity continues with Luis Vuitton Spring 2012 ready-to-wear collection!

A magical fashion fairy tale!

Clean, pale colors in icy whites, silver, candy pinks, yellow and pale blue.

The results were charming and very appealing to my taste.

Please take a look below for selected highlights:

The beautiful Kate Moss closed the show in a white macrame shift that fell to a hemline of ostrich feathers.

Charming!

Spring ’12 ready-to-wear LANVIN COLLECTION – Paris

LANVIN’S ANGELS

The Spring/Summer women’s ready-to-wear collection that was shown in Paris yesterday was a bit moodier than was expected yet, powerful, intense and sexy.  A very prominent feature that was shown a lot was the “authoritative” and “dominant” shoulder which made the collection  hardier, and bit more masculine in feel with lots of drama. I am all about the drama here: huge, pearl encrusted crucifixes, eagles and serpents around the necks and down the sides of asymmetrical dresses.  VERY LANVIN.

This is exactlty was I was expecting!

A very powerful collection with lots of separates [which is something new for Lanvin] and sexy, very sexy beautiful, “goddess appropriate” dresses.

Spring ’12 ready-to-wear DIOR COLLECTION – Paris

Dior Spring ’12 Women’s collection. SPRING AFFAIR!

I am in love with anything 1950’s. The lifestyle, the glamour, the fashion, the beautiful people, the coctails…etc…minus the heavy smoking. My obsession started with Paul Newman and  Elizabeth Taylor in Cat on a hot tin roof, it continued with Grace Kelly and Cary Grant in To catch a thief, and it hasn’t stopped since.

Recently Mad Men the famous TV series, plus the Playboy Club and Pan Am [new tv series this season which I very strongly  praise recommend] have brought more awareness of this glamorous era into the surface. I was so happy to see this look re introduced by famous design houses such as Prada, Nina Ricci and now Dior.

Beautiful!

BLACK, BLACK, BLACK, BLACK/WHITE, AND MORE BLACK was shown in Anne Demulemeester’s collection in Paris. Sheer, slender, long skirts with sleek fringing and draped long layers. That is the story that was delivered today …and I loved it!

“Goddess” inspired one-shoulder dresses were enough to satisfy my cravings for anything long, fluid, Grecian, feminine, sophisticated and sexy! Extra messy hair topped with wide-brimmed hats created the right look, the right trend, the right styling! Bravo to all! Love it! Love it! Love it!  Take a look:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Enough said! All the photos have spoken. I love this collection – end of story. SG

Spring ’12 women’s ready-to-wear PARIS COLLECTIONS

Spring ’12 ready-to-wear PARIS fashion week!

So far, so boring…personally speaking…

I am still waiting [from the French designers/geniuses] for the feminine, soft, sexy, “goddess appropriate” looks that I have been loving this season. Instead, so far, the French  have shown serious, somber, retro-rigid, in some cases futuristic collections…which I am “liking” but not so much…not my style for now…I may change my views next season, as my moods change. Right now I am feeling good, so, I am looking for vibrant, happy, feminine, outgoing, ultra glamorous looks to match my feelings…There was not much in this “happy” category for me to show you. However, for those of you who are a bit more tolerant and accepting “different views and moods” with more ease, here is what Dries Van Notren, Rochas and Balenciaga have shown:

Will be back soon…I know the French will not disappoint with their next collections…I can’t wait…xoxoS

Spring ’12 ready-to-wear Milan – Salvatore Ferragamo & my ‘love’ Dolce & Gabbana

The Italians delivered again!

OK. Here I am again with you taking a weekend break. Between relaxing, going to the gym , some light shopping and baking oatmeal cookies for a friend, I had no time for a “collections” update. Oh! I watched a fantastic new show called Pan Am and it was love at first sight! I will write about it very soon as I am fascinated with this era, and I loved the clothes! Apologizes for not keeping you up to date with the Italian Collections. Better late than ever! I was hoping to include more highlights featuring other well-known Italian collections, as there were so many others shown, but this is why I liked: Dolce & Gabbana and Salvatore Ferragamo.

As before with other collections that I highlighted for you, I was attracted in both cases with the  beauty of the styles, the sexy, glamorous silhouettes and the  colors. As you can see, sex appeal never goes out of style with Dolce  & Gabbana                                                                                                         

More universal glamour  below with Salvatore Ferragamo. Enjoy!
