- Gucci
- Milan Fashion Week Fall 2012
Let us take a minute to appreciate the dark, billowing, voluminous gowns presented to us at the end of Gucci’s runway this season. The heavy use of ultra sheer fabric and those delicate, shimmery leaf embellishments are stunning.
I will be gone until the 4th of March and I am not sure what kind of internet access I am going to have so unfortunately the Gucci runway posts currently residing in my blogs queue might be the only offering from my blog for the next little bit. With that said I will take a lot of photos and try my best to keep up with fashion month if the internet allows me to. :)

There are no words to explain how in love I am with LOVE. The spring/summer 2012 issue is taking some time to celebrate Mario Testino career with “30 Years of Optimism” and featured within the collection are vibrant, cheerful, beautiful images of heavyweights like Natalia Vodianova, Rosie Huntington Whiteley, Candice Swanepoel, Beyonce, Kar Lagerfeld, Gweneth Paltrow, Gisele,Robert Downey Jr.,Orlando Bloom, David Beckham and yes, even more. This is his first editorial for the magazine and I am so pleased with the images. There is something so lovely about all of the natural smiles on the faces of everyone which can be attributed to his uncanny ability to put everyone at ease.
I will post the rest of the editorial so do not fret!

The embroidered patent and crocodile dress from the spring 2012 collection in the first cover is to die for.
By the way, I am absolutely in love with the collage and thermal effects used in the covers. I always look forward to seeing the covers of magazines like Pop and Love because they are always so fun and beautiful.

Yet another great mix of masculine and feminine pieces. I love all of the bits of lace and floral embellishments juxtaposed top hats and pin stripes.

Time to take in the exceptional trench coats and jackets that we have come to expect from Burberry Prorsum. The volume and the girly details are to die for.

- London Fashion Week Fall 2012
Preppy, elegant and ladylike are the first three words that came to mind after reviewing the looks from the latest collection from the recent recipient of the BFC/Vogue Fashion Fund prize, Jonathan Saunders. The beginning of the collection was ruled by equestrian inspiration with stiff collars, riding jackets and classic buttoned up shirts. The looks were defused into a modern woman with the heavy use of metallics, pops of bright unexpected colour and the most beautiful floral prints. Colour blocking could be found within most looks separating each piece while still being anchored by brown, green and the loveliest poppy red hues. Saunders made great use of texture on many of the flared skirts and coats playing with tweeds, embossed effects and silks. I cannot wait to see what pieces pop up in street style photos from London Fashion Week next season.
I have been so sick the past few days and I have somehow managed to contract every childhood ailment possible. My focus has been shifted from fashion week yumminess to sleeping 24/7 and trying to get better in time for vacation.
