Dior Men’s Pre-Fall 2022 Fashion Show was Beatnik Heavy with the Kerouac prints, featuring a supple leather trench coat and shearling aviator jacket, waxed twill trench coat, loads of knits, and lustrous velvet trousers and Fair Isle knit paillette beanies sure to make an “everything plus” fella look like a “shape in a drape.” The leather…

Moschino Pre-Fall 2022 Circus Chic or Circus Freak?
Moschino Pre-Fall 2022- Circus Chic or Circus Freak? Comment Below! The wacky color palette and bold prints, especially in the pieces at the start of the presentation, feel a bit too literal- but that’s Moschino’s aesthetic, of course. I feel like some of the pieces are wearable, for example, the chevrons, solids, and stripes, but…
Carolina Herrera Pre-Fall 2022
My favorite looks from Carolina Herrera Pre-Fall 2022 include the most dramatic, colorful, and unique: the collection featured ruffles, cascades, bold color choices, and great fabric selection. Volume never sacrificed the figure, and proportion always seemed just right, with creative lines and cuts. I have long admired Carolina Herrera‘s vision, and this collection exemplifies her…
Le Gitan (The Gypsy) Fall CLO3D Fashion Show by Fashion Designer Perry Uwanawich
Le Gitan (The Gypsy) Fall CLO3D Fashion Show by Fashion Designer Perry Uwanawich, created in Marvelous Designer 11 and After Effects. I wanted to design a capsule collection that represents where the Gypsies, Rom, my people, descended from and migrated to, from Asia (India to China/Korea/Japan, etc.) to Europe, Spain, and the United States. The…
New York Fashion Week Fall 2021 NYFW
We’re still witnessing the impact of Covid-19 on the fashion calendar and industry for New York Fashion Week Fall 2021. Most shows are presentations of multimedia rather than runway shows, however, we are seeing few true runway shows with anyone other than models around- and in one I wasn’t sure if it was staff scurrying…
New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2021 Highlights
Below are designers and houses which I may have only micro-blogged on in addition to those linked to posts. In the Spring/Summer 2021 collection, I feel as if Tomo Koizumi has a very clear albeit repetitive motif with this fabric manipulation, but the designer(s) should be conscious of silhouette and the natural waistline in the…
Bibhu Mohapatra Spring 2021
Bibhu Mohapatra Spring/Summer 2021 collection remains true to the designer’s aesthetic- timeless, glamorous, perfectly executed and constructed garments which still manage to be unique and original without looking over-designed or forced. The chartreuse criss-cross gathered leg-of-mutton sleeved bodice and open-weave-skirt dress, chartreuse-yellow pleated tulle peplum skirt and black satin gathered asymmetrical top, chartreuse mini dress,…
Shirr-Perfection: Polina Gorkovenko Spring 2021
Polina Gorkovenko’s Spring 2021 collection was shirr-perfection- the effect of fabric manipulation using shirring allowed for the same technique to invoke different effects from gathers and ruffles to pleats which evoke entirely different styles from the almost Elizabethan effect on the multicolored dress to the more understated gathering on the Afghan. The cropped jacket, of…
Milan Fashion Week Fall 2020 FW20 AH20
Below you’ll find my favorite looks and pieces from various Milan Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2020 runway shows and collections from designers such as Dolce and Gabbana, Moschino, Gabriele Colangelo, and more. Dolce and Gabbana’s tailored jackets caught my eye- I love a double lapel as much as a collar, and can appreciate the combination of…
Courréges Fall 2019 Runway Beauty
Courréges Fall 2019’s show was stolen by the Runway Beauty with top lashes used as bottom lashes, red and orange shadow contrasting blue on the lower lash-line and visa versa, a peachy orange soft smokey eye, exadderated yet soft white brow-bone contour, extra lashes under the eyes entirely, and use of unusual materials for lashes. …
