Marc Jacobs: Fall 2010 Collection

Ok. So, as a person who spends far to much time fashion blogging, fashion looking, looking at editorials and everything else to do with fashion, when I came across this collection - I was a little taken back to say the least. To me, Marc Jacobs is eccentric, fabulous and all the other words that normally describe catwalk fashion - but this collection is some what different - its alot tamer. Nonetheless, the settings may contradict this, but the actual designs are simple, dark and somewhat gothic. I do however adore the Victorian feel that the shoot gives.

Nicely done Jacobs. You've won me over.
Now, just to become a billionaire and buy lots :) Hmmmm. Dreamer.

A2 TEXTILES. YAYYY.

Ok. So, I am so unbelievably sorry about not blogging for like EVER. I have been soo incredibly busy. Not only with college, like usual, but also with the whole university dilemma and what to do and stuff. Anyway.
Enough about stuff that you dont really care about.

FASHION YAY.

For my Textiles A2 course, my theme is patrotism and Im having so much fun exploring artists, designers and photographers that show their passion and love for their country through their work. Its inspiring. My aim is too capture their unique and individual techniques and aspects that make them so original and put this into practise.
Ill show you some of the work I do when Ive done it to be honest. Haaa.
Anyway.
Check out some of the photos that have kick started my inspiration.

Eclipse: Twilight Saga

Okay, so your probably sick to death of people going on and on about the film by now and hot gorgeous Taylor and Robert look (which they do) but thats not the reason Im posting about it.
Oh no. Im here to comment on the premiere outfits for the very dull and boring (in my opinion) Kirsten Stewart, whos fashion sense has always intrigued me..

As you can see from the four photos above, her style from one premiere venue to the next vary so much. From short pink cocktail dresses, to floor length navy blue ball gowns, her style changes almost gives me whiplash. Now, dont get me wrong, some of them suit her amazingly, like the top image, although that may also have something to do with her very good looking boyfriend smiling at her instead of her dress, but nonetheless, the colours suit her and so does the figure hugging style.
However, the pink dress at the bottom, not such a hit in my opinion. She tries to give the impression of a rock girl, rebellious young women who doesnt care that she gets to kiss two of the most talked about guys on a regular basis in a film that the whole world knows about, yet why does she choose the girly pink colour? Maybe to suggest a feminine side?
Hmmmm. Im not too sure..

Escada Campaign Autumn

I adore the setting of this shoot. Maybe I am slightly bias in that I love theatre, the effects, the costume and being a performer myself, I appreciate each of these soooo much. However, I think that the traditional red velvet seats which are almost iconic for theatres, combined with the iconic symbol of women and femaninity of the 'Little Black Dress', kinda adds a contemporary feel to the photo, yet the style of it and the rich and almost heavy looking fabric reminds us of the time era in which the photos are meant to be set.
The aim of the shoot was to show off Escadas new fall collection of day and evening wear, and by using Milla Jovoich as their model, who is basically just stunning, its not wonder that these clothes are portrayed amazingly.
I absouetly love the shot with the chairs. The rebellious symbol of being dramatic, not only fits the setting but also contradicts some of the more sophisicated and elegant garments within the collection.

A stunning photoshoot, with amazing clothes for a first class brand. Perfect.

Vogue China July 2010

Hey bloggers. Sorry I havent posted in sooo long, kinda been a hetic few weeks. But Im back :)

Anyway. The shoot above is a photoshoot for Vogue China that Georgia Jagger did. Now, Im not normally a fan of this young lady, and after seeing the photos from the Vogue Britain shoot she did a few months ago, this kinda re-emphasised it. However, it may be the incredibly well put together outfits she is modelling that suddenly changes my mind on this lady.
I adore the green tights and all the uses of unique high knee socks combined with the classic, almost Ralph Lauren kinda vibe that it has going on. It may be the model that pulls the clothes of amazingly well, because Im pretty sure that I wouldnt be able too, but I soo drawn to the aray of colours in this shoot.
Now, if only Vogue UK could come up with something as interesting..

Sam Edelman

So whilst browsing through Lookbook.nu, I hyped a photo that was absouletly stunning. Not only because of the person in it, but because of her gorgeous shoes.
Its slightly hard to miss, but Gladiator sandels are soooooo big, both last summer and this summer, but this more eccentric version of them are a stunning add to the classic shoes.
Below is the website address so you can browse through what I mean.
