Milan SS09 - very short review (part 2)

Versace goes summer-ish. Short dresses, vivid colors and those wonderful prints! Totally adorable. Donatella again didn't go into anything original, but watching this collection was just... pleasurable:)

Dolce&Gabbana go shiny. There is a little bit of everything in this collection - satin, oversized sequins, extra-wide shoulders, fur - everything screaming "look at me!". I really enjoyed the powerful woman look as well as the romantic dresses at the end.

Dsquared² go seventies. Very sporty, very American. It will definitely find it's fans - but not me. Reminds me of old James Bond movies.

Pucci goes Pucci. Williamson, enough.

Fendi goes simple. Transparent materials, pale colors, geometrical shapes. Very "it" for this season. But... who the hell has designed the hairstyles? Don't match the clothes so badly.

Milan SS09 - very short review (part 1)

Bluemarine goes blue. Mrs. Molinari did what she does the best - girlish dresses for young Hollywood stars.

Prada goes sexy. Very strong accent on rumpled fabrics. Isn't this collection more feminine than usual? And it's not only about half naked models.


Moschino goes girlish. Nice, but repetitive. Harlequin style, pink, hearts - really cute, as always.


Missoni goes calm. Delicate colors + Japanese elements. Nothing special.

Gianfranco Ferre goes perfect. My favorite one! Tomasso + Roberto tried to "maintain the essence of Ferre while looking at the future, at what a modern woman wants". Worked out so well - I love the geometrical shapes, the simplicity without loosing feminity, the Ferre's spirit. Bravissimo.

P.S. I got a new PC! That means I will be able to write here regularly. I missed that.

Accessories - inspitations

Today - some random accessories from fall/winter 2008 collections, which inspire me for last couple of weeks. So that I want: some silver black and white jewelry, a green bag (big one!), jewelry clutch, unusual tights, shiny necklace (not necessarily made out of beads) and a beret. Hope to find at least half of the list.

Alexander McQueen, Marc Jacobs

Christian Lacroix, Chanel

Zac Posen, Donna Karan

PS. I am going to Spain in couple of hours. I am not sure will I have a chance to write something here or even check my e-mail box regularly. But just in case - stay tuned!

Snap from Prague

Me + kefija. As usual. I know, I know, only emo teenagers wear it nowadays, but I can't help it. Love my kefija. Picture by Elcia.

Spot the difference

Hervé Léger by Max Azria. On the left - FW08 (first collection), on the right - SS09. Except the swimming suits, they are so repetitive, actually almost identical. I hoped Azria can be more creative with second-skin band dresses. I also don't like those optical illusions he tried to create. Maybe another time.

Prague

Hej, guys! It's Prague time:) See you next week! Hopefully, I will manage to bring back some nice pictures.

Have a great weekend, everybody!
