Sending a Message Malandrino Style

I received the Malandrino lookbook for resort styles sometime in July and I understand why the designer is so dynamic in the construction of evening dresses and gowns to an extent. But what's really getting me ginned up is the rumblings of another incredible fashion week showing on the order...

Custo Barcelona teases Fashion Week presentation with Sketches

These conceptual sketches from Custo Barcelona is enough to cause instant salivation. No one has command of color and the ability to make it outlandishly fabulous like Custo Dalmau. So this Sunday while normal red blooded American males will be sitting in front of a TV watching football, I will...

BCBG MaxAzria – Spring/Summer 2012 collection video outtakes

Nothing like seeing the back of heads and a bit of the runway at BCBG. It's almost like being in the stands in nosebleed. Reviews for the show and detailed shots from Kevin Kane coming up later today. But overall this is another strong collection for the BCBG line and...

Mackage SS 2012

Glowing review posted for Mackage's Spring Summer 2012 collection. Though a bit pugnacious as to whether it's a feminine or skews to the more masculine side.

Stella McCartney SS11

It was all about easy suiting at the Stella McCartney spring and summer 2011 fashion show at Paris fashion week. Monochrome is proving to be a strong trend for next seasons and McCartney's light suits fit in at the office or glitzed up for evening. The tranquil palette of white...

Céline SS11

Phoebe Philo created a collection for Céline that was arguably more wearable than most designers during Paris fashion week. This was no small feat considering the complexity of some of the pieces that comprised the collection. She played with geometric shapes and the feminine form creating a silhouette that was...

Akris SS11

It's a sleek and chic spring for Akris. Leather-look fabrics and structured chambray were prominent fabrics that added dimension to the streamlined collection that had a minimalist feel. For day there are loose sheath dresses with massive floral prints and monochromatic looks in blue, kelly green and rust orange. There...
