Dear Coco and Karl, 

I would never want to imagine a world without your mastery of fashion. You have been so good to us. 

Sincerely,

Tom Ford previewed his collection yesterday in London to a small group of people. Using The 60’s as an inspiration,  the collection is flawless!

A few months ago the whole world heard the news about Hedi Slimane’s rebranding efforts to change the name from Yves Saint Laurent to Saint Laurent, many people were frustrated with such an idea due to how iconic it is. Today Hedi Slimane showed his collection, and it was The Wild Wild West meets Parisian runway. People may differ on whether it was genius or not, I loved it! Here are my favorite pieces!

Today Chloé showed their collection. As you all know I am a sucker for simplicity. Here are my favorite pieces!  The blazer on the first ensemble, the ruffles on the second, and the color and cut of the third. Simple elegance!

Looking at the runway pictures, all I could imagine was the following scenario: A French designer,cigarette in hand, has to scramble to create a dress in a few hours for a woman who wants a makeover.  And all he could see was a few yards of cloth in the corner. He takes them, drapes them, and creates a head turning dress. A dress that reminds you of the simplistic origin of clothing, that it is a piece of cloth. Two hours have passed then he says “Voila” and the woman is off to her party in a flawless breath taking simple dress. Thats what I call fashion. I love when the origin of the product is emphasized when creating art pieces. Here are my favorite two pieces:

At Gaultier many celebrities were channeled into this collection from Boy George (from Culture Club), to Madonna, to Michael Jackson, and to many others. Was it cohesive? Did Gaultier live up to expectations? These questions will remain unanswered. Nevertheless, here are my favorite pieces out of this collection.

Looking at Lanvin’s runway show today reminded me of what French fashion is all about, the ability to create a masterpiece using simple materials and designs. Lanvin’s collection was all about the large shoulder pads and belted waists. Here are my favorite looks!

Remember the breath taking pieces by Balmain last year, the ones with the unconventional black, white and silver materials? Well this year Balmain capitalized in it, and it looks great! The pictures will speak for themselves.

Gareth Pugh may not be big in the fashion world but today’s runway mesmerized me, It was the first time I get to look at his collections. After some research I found that Gareth Pugh is a british designer that currently lives and works in Paris. He has had difficulties with building his brand, only till recent years did he offer his collections, previously they were just considered runway projects. Tell me what you think!

I loved the layering on the white dress, it gives great movement! Also, what I liked with the red outfit was the top, how it moves and the tail such a statement!!

The summery of this fashion show: Architectural. I felt that this fashion show stayed true to Gianfranco Ferré architectural background. I also appreciate how the color pallet was only black and white with slight hints of gold and silver.  Here are my favorite pieces!

My favorite designers Dolce & Gabbana show cased another spectacular runway show this season. With their baroque collection last year, which caused the fashion world to go head over heels. Dolce & Gabbana always walked on the fine line between being tacky and being high-end clothing, and as always they succeed! They are ingenious artists!  This collection takes everyone back to the time periods that Sicily has gone through starting from the Romans. The Roman prints, The baroque embellishments, the 20’s and 30’s dress and swimwear designs. Only Dolce & Gabbana can have all of that and turn it into something spectacular.

I wish I could upload all 82 different looks but here are my favorites!

Eternal chic is what Bally is all about! The cuts and design might be classical or targeted for an older generation, but they are so perfectly cut and shaped that they would turn heads around! Yes! they are the perfect little cocktail dresses women would love to have.

Dolce & Gabbana, FENDI, and Madonna. (now that we got the song out of the way, let us critique!) I loved the mixtures of colors that Fendi showed today, bold but sophisticated. I also focused on the accessories that were shown in the collection- as a big fan of the Peek-A-Boo bag I loved the combination of blue and beige that was shown today! I hope you Enjoy it! Here are my favorite pieces.
