Jacquemus Fall/Winter 2016 Paris Fashion Week PFW FW16 AH16

Jacquemus Fall/Winter 2016 Paris Fashion Week was a total joke: the silhouettes were ridiculous, the designs were unwearable- it was neither fashion nor art, it was amateur arts and crafts, and brought back those Margiela fat pants or spongebob pants from years ago to mind.  Hopefully PFW FW16 AH16 is either the last collection for…

Anrealage Fall/Winter 2016 Paris Fashion Week PFW FW16 AH16

Anrealage  Fall/Winter 2016 Paris Fashion Week collection looked like the designers tried to create a collection that was trendy, hip, and fashion forward…but it ended up looking like a granny watched an 80’s film set in the future. Had the silhouettes not been bulky and volumizing, had the shoulder pads been scrapped, and had all the bulk…

Anthony Vaccarello Fall/Winter 2016 Paris Fashion Week PFW FW16 AH16

The Anthony Vaccarello Fall/Winter 2016 Paris Fashion Week runway show served us the mini and micro mini, trendy corset inspired lace up details, black patent leather pants, mesh, hilo jackets, and beautiful colorful embellished Blazers and dresses.  The Anthony Vaccarello PFW FW16 AH16 collection is 90’s retro, unique chic, and I particularly loved the blazers, coats,…

Salvatore Ferragamo Fall/Winter 2016 Milan Fashion Week MFW FW16 AH16

Salvatore Ferragamo has finally found its voice in fashion since venturing out to reposition it’s brand from having a leather goods and accessories positioning to being known for fashion all around. The Ferragamo Fall/Winter 2016 collection was elevated, chic, and luxe with its pleated layering, a bold rich palette, and unique details.

Dolce & Gabbana Fall/Winter 2016 Milan Fashion Week MFW FW16 AH16

Ornate, ostentatious, the Dolce & Gabbana Fall/Winter 2016 is as flamboyant as its male counterpart. There was a dichotomy between fabulously glamorous garments and over designed looks.  Ugly Christmas sweaters, granny meets cat-lady, overly embroidered with weird fairy tale patches, obesity silhouettes, Peter Pan collars, the Dolce & Gabbana Fall/Winter 2016 collection was over designed….

Phillip Plein Fall/Winter 2016 Milan Fashion Week MFW FW16 AH16

Versace Milan Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2016 MFW FW16

Versace Milan Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2016 womenswear complimented and contrasted the Versace Men’s collection, the pastel pink and blue was present, along with bold blues and yellow, but there was a powerful masculine energy to some of the black looks…think power suit not macho.  Contrast sleeves, bold Gianni-esque prints, herringbone, bondage themes of O-ring zippers…

Swags Swag: Prada Milan Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2016 MFW FW16

The Prada Milan Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2016 fashion show kept some elements from its SS16 collection: the 50’s vibe, maybe a touch of the beauty- the hair, and digressed from the goth chic look into this more colorful version with textiles, still life paintings turned photo prints… Clown boots, lace up calf-high boots, Mary-Janes, corsets, capes,…

Moschino Milan Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2016 MFW FW16

Burning Hot:  Jeremy Scott burned down the house of Moschino, literally- burn holes, tattered sleeves and hemlines, match and cigarette-smoking-lip prints, and leather bondage were the motifs of the Moschino Fall/Winter 2016 Milan Fashion Week runway show. Words that come to mind to describe the Moschino MFW FW16 collection: Closet-Bound Skeleton, Budweiser Babe- what with…
