Louis Vuitton Fashion

Antartika  Raya - It's a mod, mod world! Marc Jacobs ended PFW quick and bright with only a collection of heavy-laden lines are precise and concise that imaginative. Peppier A, preppier take sixties collection of his eponymous, mostly limited form minidresses kicky, long maxi dresses and mid-length passes the silhouette, straight-sixties, and it was perfectly fine. Black and white, yellow and white, beige and white, gray, and white-you get the picture. Ultra-graphic, blown-up floral motif on some looks green and white print is a deviation, but it just makes the story all the more impact. Once again, a beautiful season of the Jacobs-the front row is not likely to forget anytime soon.

Chloé, Maiyet Fashion

Antartika Raya

Chloé
A commemoration of 60 happy is to Chloé! Destruction of houses archives and greatest hits but not humble yourself so, Claire Waight Keller off-label ruffled residual spring '13 in on the action frilly. If it's one-shoulder confection in looking flouncy peachy 12 too saccharine for some (not us), there is a thick cap sleeve ruffles and feathers of metallic-colored pleats to revel in. Another frill factor: roses cascading down from a pair of boxy mustard pants (sans pants look the same as the desired texture-heavy plants!), rigid, thin micropleats and mega-scale floral print in B & W or rose gold, the last step out so thanks to T greatness and breezy pants combo. And those soft, ruffled white shirt looks much thinner base? Simple but brilliant.

Maiyet
Kicking with a fine series of all-white looks, Spring '13 is an exercise in sensuality easily through muted silk, billowing skirts, and casual in cut-throat laissez faire lass numbering. A woman with a jealous eye accessories (they are intertwined rope-heels in merlot, for starters, as well as the necklace pieces which mainly take the duo when paired with navy and beige dress with a pattern resembling an abstraction of the giraffe print) as well. Waist cinchers consisted of duos and trios mutual compliments the color contrast is instant (and quite striking in a pair poppy-on-teal), and kill printed, slung baggy shorts and handcuffs could sway even Gams-bearing customers refused to join the crowd cut .

Kenzo, Hermès, Costume National Fashion

Antartika Raya

kenzo
Amped-up leopard print, as part of the orange-y color and shades of green forest, and courtesy sharp lines khaki gray and washed-out to tie it all together: It seems the third time is the charm for Humberto Leon and Carol Lim, the vibrant, curved-up but Eminently wearable for spring selection. Orange construction cones used well, good as solid, wide-legged pants or various shades of teal. In front of the pieds, knee-high boots, a jacket as it grows with liners interspersed with strap-happy heels that clashed with fun patterned ground. The fanatics of last season chiced up shirt Kenzo? It's back, sort of cold this time, and on the way to the forest.

Hermès
Shorts is the longest, and certainly the loudest, stories Christophe Lemaire spring lineup that includes the whole of the lights and scarflike for some people, brilliant version of the boxy in alligators, to act as a pair of micro noir basics only for severe skin layerings united above. As for those crocodile-flaunters Gams, that towards the end of the cobalt couples linger in the mind, as well as sports-luxe motif duo paired with their toppers (ditto for that mustard-colored cropped jacket walking down the runway before getup one).

National costumes
Dressed choppy, ruled by the sharp lines and jagged Often, gets executed in black, fuchsia plants, and tomatoes, offers asymmetrical nude taking setting up. A rare moment in which the left-right fit, or there is nary a rope or cincher sort of hang in several directions, provide the most surprise. Besides pink, almost-glowing Piquant whole (How Favorably running with red trim? Wiki.), Inclusion of a pattern of black-and minimally limited to only two photo prints cropping up, but not by any stretch of competing with intentionally mismatched mishmash overhanging hemlines and silhouettes .

Vionnet, Maison Martin Margiela Fashion

(Antartika Raya )
Vionnet
Red, white, and black dresses and pantsuits are encased de-riguer jersey is great for travel, after all-but look a bit stale. Madame Vionnet has been reinterpreted by the designers dozens of ways to hit her in tow, and interpretation-if current stick-less in the sense of it without fear and discovery. And no doubt Vionnet customers suffer chronic confusion.

Maison Martin Margiela
Another house forging ahead following the departure of its founder-in this case, retired after the season-and a little funky, la Maison seem to find a foothold. A silhouette, strapless boxy key concept, used as a tank with a mid-length or floor-grazing skirt. A fun black pantsuit with a tie-over and, almost-thin massively oversized ballgown skirt / tee combo is among the most visible directional, but it was the first dress, strapless leather number of gray pigeons are surprisingly flattering, which has a row front at hello.

Balenciaga, Balmain - Fashion

Antartika Raya
Balenciaga
Ruffles and ridges! Who else but Nicolas Ghesquiere could make girliest feel so architectural motif? Fabrication been extensively studied, as always, is one of the many advantages this collection, but a series of black and white, followed by a heavily starched taking apron dress, competing for attention. Micromini midriff and is a key silhouette, while a friendly work clothing wool and pieces together sheath offers some clothes-in-real-life alternatives.

Balmain
We got it, we got it! Black and white is a great spring '13 trends, if the show so far has anything to say about it. Olivier Rousteing magical collection that shoulder-centric dominated by diamond print B & W, which evolved into the motive cutout, and finally, ultra-graphic, psychedelic prints reminiscent of downtown New York in the 1980s. And did we mention the shoulder? Ultra-wide-width of Décarnin day-and only with a soft touch, they add a dose of humor for this look instead femme fatale-friendly.

"Your ticket to an exotic adventure: Teddy sexy with a seductive piece of detail, with floral Asia. Fantasy sexy for you," it says on the description of the clothes the official website of Victoria's Secret.

But soon released, underwear was immediately drawn protests. Victoria's Secret is considered racist and offensive by some Asian women. Many consider, with his new collection, the US-based clothing label that considers women as sex objects mere Asia.

"It's not showing the authentic and humanization of a culture, but rather to make Asian women as sex objects," he protested Racialicious.com in their website. Website for women TheFrisky.com. also thinks the same. "The whole outfit really makes Asian women as objects," they write

Other critics have also sprung up through social networking accounts like Twitter, but not least also the defending. As the tweet @ huniebunnibabi. This "I am Asian, but do not feel insulted," he said.

Milan Spring 2013: Emporio Armani, MaxMara, No. 21

MILAN) Emporio ArmaniExercise in layering shimmery neutral rule Emporio Armani runway for Spring '13. Metallics are instrumental, soft sheen and cut blunt, often in the form of strapless babydoll. Crisscross sheath in ivory and taupe and asymmetrical draped skirt wad of cotton candy pastels evoke tassels. Deviations from the pallet-to-gray camel fundamental including done in choppy tweedy suits, deconstructed shapes (shorts, anyone?) And standout cut blazer woven in sherbet colors, all the more delicious when paired with silk shorts drunk. Shoes in shades of pumpkin and candy, cute strappy heels, and some B & W collection toe mules. A school bits, moments mermaid shimmer, and a new way of reasonably fit up.
MaxMaraWith a strong heritage outerwear fits the brand, which tweaks reading safari storyline rooted in the latest MaxMara. Wildlife? Animal prints retooled, sometimes mashed with stripes (very busy, to say the least), in other places in the form of repeated T square and handcuffed arms seen look after look. Factor of flattering ruching on the inset laden pencil skirt consisting of dominant silhouette is debatable, as is the case for more distended than toppers (see space-like gray and olive points late in the show). But some appear to follow the below-the-knee pencil and T formula, made with cornflower blue copper or shiny, which is quite suitable to pierce the concrete jungle.
No 21Kicking off with a series of crisp white and sky blue look, No. 21 Spring collection that gets threaded with white collar and apron like hems and sprinkled with a little sketch Rococo motifs. The subtle subversiveness delivered through the clatter of bibs and a wide, stretch of swooping, armored in appearance. The second half is a professional event stimuli, shaking everything after (literally and figuratively) orderly vibe of opener: sheer tops removed with bold horizontal striping, metallic lace skirt in maroon plated belt slashed with diagonal and zigzag shiny red fire engine. All in all, a lot of eclectic with lots that are bound to linger in the mind.

Milan Spring 2013: Gucci, Alberta Ferretti

(MILAN) Gucci
When Frida Giannini Gucci archives digging, anything can happen-but it's safe to say the results will remember la dolce vita of some sort. For Spring, Giannini looked back to the golden era of the 1960s, in which a long tunic, oodles of ruffles, and a major statement jewelry is a must. Are you ready for a pantsuit Fuscia? What about the palm-print pajama pants? Cobalt, turquoise, chartreuse, black and white are the key players here, with a python minidress thrown in for good measure. A set of very intricate necklace and coral earrings, worn together and calculated the all-white look, is one of the most fascinating discoveries.

Alberta Ferretti
In the hard-edged, Ferretti lightlanded approach this feels very welcome. The soft, sea-inspired Spring collection was an amalgamation of what designers do best-beautiful draping, intricate beadwork and inspired, and a neutral color palette of successful singing. Punctuated by a shot from periwinkle, and wrapped in satin pants trompe l'oeil tank, and offset by shades of dark teal and turquoise, watery effect anything but watered down. Case in point? Floor-length, v-neck dress made from a variety of patched-together pieces of lace blue over green chiffon. A mermaid-esque dress with a pattern of fishing nets is one of the most interesting red carpet looks we have seen so far, but it looks-finals that Ferretti embroidered corsets in seaweed, with a liquid-skirt that combines the overall concept.

Mulberry

YOU really can smell and taste the heat this morning at Mulberry show. Creative Director Emma Hill ballroom of Claridge transform the UK into a park, complete with astro turf replacing the usual plush carpeting and gnomes, lots and lots of gnomes everywhere.

On the catwalk entrance fell fresh roses with small lizards hiding among them - this is an English country garden with a difference. It was very Mulberry.

"We were in quite a romantic atmosphere I think," said Emma Hill backstage, while Kate Moss - who sat front row with Alexa Chung and Lana Del Rey - chatting about his new book, Kate, and etiquette fashion week.

"He's still the same girl, Mulberry girl, but she just always in a different way," said Hill, noting the time it must go through the seventies, ice cream color palette and a little more mature for it.

In terms of Mulberry, was working as a chic camel trench cape-backed with the great interest (Seventies play it), the other with a metallic floral decorated throughout and charged them with a bag of new Willow - multi-functional tote-clutch hybrid, which many scrim we see throughout the show.

There are blue and caramel floral jumper belted and worn with pleated skirts, delicate folds fall from hip to other people in other places or decorate a beautiful shoulder blades hippy maxi dress. Loose shape - with robes, biker jackets Mulberry giving a cool edge to dresses and diaphanous halter neck dress covered in sequins scales - "I say we should put a jacket," said Hill of the nuances of fashion is important to make it have a Mulberry-ness.

It was pretty and sweet in the palette as we have seen so much this week - apricots, spearmint, pink fondant.

"I saw a picture of a popsicle and it was really the starting point for the color palette," explains Hill. But where's the other label is sweet to the point of sickly (sometimes in a good way, sometimes in a bad way and sometimes somewhere in between), Mulberry - coldly Seventies - stay cool and relaxed.

"It's more mature this season, but the quality and detail is always Mulberry girl still has a sense of humor," concludes Hill.

London Spring 2013: Christopher Kane, Erdem, Burberry Prorsum

Antartika Raya
(LONDON) Christopher Kane
Christopher Kane took the pages of a thick book favorite child, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, for Spring. But do not expect a darker design sinfully Fall la 2012. This season, Kane spins a lush dreamscape focuses on the nuts and bolts of the story of the 19th century. On a more literal note, tonal white skirt suit and apron are nimble pinned and folded with plastic nuts and bolts, often repeated in platform peep-toe sandals. Standout come in the form of opening up the twin white padded jacket with matching pencil skirt. Then, kill the transparent pink skirt and yellow fondant followed, all filled with a small bow jelly and topped with a screenprinted tee monster. Black tape, tagging sheer sherbet-colored dress, was a touch too conceptual for some, but it works well when applied to the shaded white and yellow tulle gown, complete with lace applique and Diamonte. All in all, Kane created a very captivating narrative decadent from start to finish.

Erdem
Erdem Moralioglu presented a delightful treat this afternoon at the dreamy dome tent in the middle of London, Manchester Square Gardens. On the menu? Ultra-femme lace skirt embroidered with plastic subdued or scattered with floral designer familiar. Moralioglu indulge his craving for color this season in a surprising splash of neon orange, lemon, and cherry shoots against Carolina blue lace on everything from tulip-rounded halter dresses to pants combo ruffle-necked top 'n' nod to the sixties. And for the chef d'oeuvre? Patchworked snake sheathing with towering, matchy-matchy Maryjanes.

Burberry Prorsum
Although the stock market hiccups last week, Burberry Prorsum out on top this time thanks to an abundance of thick, colored candy coat the figure-hugging cocktail dresses and metallic bodysuits. To start, the retractable roof was opened in Hyde Park, shining light on a group of mods Burberry trench galloping in every variety known to man: ink blue cape trench, ditch copper and pink corset, lace trench moss and colorful foil cut trench cape. Take your pick, darlings! For added shape, Christopher Bailey mixed in cut, color-blocked bomber with rounded shoulders and a very noble berries, cotton sateen coat double cocoons. Takeaway: One more. As for accessories, it's all about the wallet "Blaze" for spring, full of the spirit of mash-up between a doctor's bag and gym bag teeny tiny. They, of course, will be available in a rainbow of hues to accent your new trench-a-day regime. Color us happy!

And They're Off ... NYFW the Breakout Model

Antartikaraya.- Perhaps the biggest story NYFW Model Carolyn Murphy is a return to the runway. Girl-nineties golden era opened Jason Wu show, channeling Helmut Newton in painted cherry red lips and slicked-back updo, and also runs Marchesa later in the week. Exclusive appearance Liberty Ross' in Alexander Wang also caused quite a stir. In the face of rumors swirling about her director husband, Rupert Sanders, English actress 33 years proved that looking good is the best revenge. However, some fresh faces to handle the first show they also managed to make an impact. The week started with the Marines Deleeuw, who opened BCBG Max Azria on Thursday and Rag & Bone on Friday, then proceeded to walk shows including 3.1 Phillip Lim and Narciso Rodriguez. He ended things on a high note in Calvin Klein, which is arguably the most coveted event to score. Asia Piwka and Kayley Chabot, two other newbies increases, also netted Calvin yesterday. Earlier this week, Piwka debut in Alexander Wang (she is the mystery girl in the lookbook Resort Christopher Kane) and appeared in Marc Jacobs, Rodarte, and Michael Kors. The girl-next-door appeal Chabot brings coveted spot in Altuzarra and Proenza Schouler.

It's safe to say that many catwalking career has been launched in Alexander Wang, and this season is no different. Striking redhead Irina Kravchenko (pictured, below right) was the first girl out there, which paved the way for alternate Marc Jacobs, Thakoon, and Narciso Rodriguez. Juliana Schurig (photo, below left) and Marikka Juhler (photo, top right) also started with Wang before going to do the other top shows, bleach-blonde Schurig landed at Derek Lam and Theyskens Theory ', among others, while Juhler, which is serve, seriously old-school vibe glamazon, has asked everyone, "Who's that girl?" at Tommy Hilfiger, Oscar de la Renta and Proenza Schouler. Speaking of Proenza, baby-faced Wylie Hays opened the event after running Alexander Wang and Theyskens Theory 'earlier this week. Personally, we've got a crush on Athena Wilson (pictured, top left) ragged pageboy bowl cut. Wilson premiered at Creatures of the Wind and the boyish charm of his work in Altuzarra and Narciso Rodriguez. It's worth mentioning that chance, almost all the famous starters (apart from Piwka and Hays) is a Ford model, so that Paul Rowland and the company must be doing something right. Nevertheless, there are still three left the city, which means a lot of opportunities (read: exclusive major league) for newcomers to step up.

"I want to be a passion, fashion forward and actually play in inspiring me a lot," said Wickstead said.

"I like shorts matador so I played a lot on it, I thought it was pretty fresh, keep summer fun and flirty but at the end of the day, my style is quite sophisticated and neat, so I wanted to make it more playful."

Wickstead, who was six months pregnant, was one of the designers to benefit from the "Kate effect" after the Duchess of Cambridge stepped out in some of his designs.

Wickstead told Reuters he could not comment on her royal client, but said it was "inspiring" to dress "who advanced, high profile and is beautiful and looks great."

"He had some sort of talent to do really classic, simple things and manages to be very dramatic and sexy with it in the most classy," said Carmichael.
