Dolce-Gabbana Featuring Schiaparelli

Mar 2, 2009 0
Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana provide some much desired fashion fantasy to stress out buyers with a flash and a nod to Elsa Schiaparelli, the Roman-born couturier.


Schiaparelli brought surrealist smartness to the fashion scene between the wars. The spirit of Schiap as she was known, materialized at Dolce & Gabbana in their playful "gloved" headbands and their 1940s silhouette, not to mention the tiny ruffles that fluttered down the seams of stockings.

But most obvious was their use of shocking pink in taffeta dresses, marabou coats, and even wedgie shoes.

Diego Della Valle currently owns the rights to the Schiaparelli name. Rumor around Milan is that he has already chosen a designer to spearhead a relaunch.

Astrology Of The Red Carpet Fashion (2)

Feb 24, 2009 0
Strong-willed Leos and Aquarians have very big personalities, of the love them or hate them variety. The same could be said of their always unique take on personal fashion.


Truly only a Leo like Amy Adams could pull off such a bold statement necklace with an equally over the top dress. Aquarians Jennifer Aniston also rocked unusual strapless dresses that would not flatter or appeal to most people but these are women who are not interested in blending in with the crowd.

Asrology Of The Red Carpet Fashion

The play between structure and romantic whimsy rules the lives of Virgo and Pisces women. Look at Beyonce Knowles and Jessica Biel on the red carpet scene.


It is certainly the structure of Virgo Beyonce’s and Pisces Jessica Biel's dresses that catches your attention. Biel does better in the romance factor but they both look terribly uncomfortable.

Marc Jacobs Bright Blooming Flower

Feb 21, 2009 0
Marc Jacobs presented his Marc by Marc Jacobs collection. It was one of his liveliest shows in a while.

This was what is known as a shopping collection, in which the clothes were more important than big ideas about nightclubbing during darker times. He had a lot to offer: darling coats that flounced out at the waist, Punky Brewster tights and a sweater with a bright blooming flower across the belly.

Chris Benz On The Recession

Feb 20, 2009 0
The economic recess has in effect reminded designers that people want something innovative from fashion — a reason to be optimistic. Chris Benz answered that call with a collection that was so cheerful, it almost seemed medicated.

“The last time we had this feeling of a shady economy was in the late ’70s, when uptown women were escaping to the big clubs downtown,” he said.

Off course one may argue about customers for an electric-red foiled-leather mini-shift or a yellow sheared-mink peacoat, but Benz still has our appreciation.

Despite the current economic climate, when most people across the nation are losing their jobs, please consider that some people still need to keep their jobs. And, of course, they need to get dressed everyday.

Tartan Fashion

Feb 17, 2009 0

Since the Victorian and Edwardian eras, tartan had been featured in fashion catalogues. By then, tartan shifted from being mainly a part of men's clothing to become an significant part of women's fashion.

Tartan developed an air of dignity and exclusivity, as an effect of its connection with the British aristocracy. Because of this, tartan has made reappearances in the world of fashion several times.

In the late 1970s tartan was resurgenced as a means for the British Isles youth to voice their dissatisfaction with the ruling class. The unconventional use of tartan, which had long been linked with authority and gentility, was then seen as the expression against modern society. In this way tartan became an anti-establishment symbol.
