Calvin Klein SS 2014 Menswear

If you haven't seen Calvin Klein's SS 2014 collection, I AM HERE TO SHOW YOU THE LIGHT.

Look at the prints! Just look at them! I think the rectangles/windows in the middle really bring the print to the next level; my mom was confused by them. I can't wait for when this collection goes to stores and online because I will definitely be shopping it!

 

But overall the collection can be broken up into Light and Dark. Calvin Klein is riding the monochrome trend until its death but he's still making it look great. Many of the pieces were offered in both light blue and dark royal blue. I tried to show that with the collages I made.

and Dark....

Do you love the Calvin Klein collection as much as I do? Leave a comment below...

Sportmax FW 2013

Alrighty, the Sportmax collection at Milan Fashion Week did not disappoint. The focus of the show was the outerwear! (There's some lovely outerwear in this collection and by some, I mean all of it.) You can see that while Sportmax did fur this season (like every other designer), they made it their own and took it into an entirely different route. 

Here are the trends from the show:

Tiled Fur

Tonal Striping

Quilted & Mock Quilted

Fendi FW 2013

This season Fendi was all about dyed fur! Fur was everywhere!! From stripes to solid and everything in between, Fendi's girl this season is a Space Xenon Queen. Karl Lagerfeld propelled Fendi forward for Fall with this season that kept the young breath of life in the label. The major trends in the show are below:

Striped Fur

Fur Breastplates

Fur Straps

Rodarte FW 2013

Rodarte's Fall 2013 show at New York Fashion Week included a lot of ideas. While, I did tend to like most of it, there was little refinement (if any). The label showed everything from black to white to nude to tie-dye to sponged. It all works for Fall 2013 and I think the season will be successful but it was A LOT.

So starting with the first trend, monochromatic layering

love her hair, it's actually perfect

Topman Design AW2013

London Collections: Men has just started! It's (almost) a week long event of menswear shows in London (no surprise there).

Topman Design's AW2013 show was striking.

They introduced trends from the 90s and integrated them seamlessly in the show which were complimented by the other usual wintery garments. 

Camel is back! Although the "camel" color starts off in the show as more of a vanilla (as with the photo below), it transitions into a more yellow color resulting in camel.

The collar of this coat is so dramatic

Pr-Pr-PRINTED COATS!!

I love this sweater even though I never wear orange
but I could definitely work this.
Also, can anyone else see an "om" symbol in the print?

In the 90s, monochrome outfits were huge! Matching your shoes to your purse to your jacket meant you were trendy to the MAX! Well, it's coming back. Monochrome has been on it's way back in trend but I've never seen it in a fashion show like this before. 

Leather pants are divine

So this season for Topman Design, as a whole, was pretty nostalgic. I'm pleased that 90s trends are coming back (I'm a huge fan of the 1990s).

T by Alexander Wang Spring 2013

White and Black as usual. Still exciting and beautiful somehow.

T by Alexander Wang was simple, subtle, and sexy this season and the pieces are so timeless and classics. Everyone could use at least one piece from this collection. (There are leather shorts in this collection!)

James Long Spring 2013

James Long had a presentation this season, rather than a runway. As you can see from the photos, none of the integrity of the clothes is mistranslated. 

Black and white was the theme this season. This needs no further description, just enjoy!

notice the cut-out!

The styling for this collection was impeccable! Wet hair (unusual, but unique) & winged shoes all added to the grunge, edgy look of James Long's collection.

Jean Paul Gaultier Fall 2012 Couture

This week I reviewed the Fall 2012 Couture show of Jean Paul Gaultier. I've really liked JPG's designs in the past, but there were some that I didn't enjoy so much this season. Overall, he did a fair job and I'm looking forward to his next collection! (and I want that sheer bodysuit so badly. If you know where to buy it from, link me pleasssssee)
