High Fashion Immune To Low Stocks So Far

High Fashion Immune To Low Stocks So Far,couture, economy, fashion, paris

Like the high-end art market, the high-end fashion market continues to remain afloat in difficult times. This week is Paris Fashion Week and as WWD reports couture, the very top of the fashion world, contains to see strong sales. The number of couture clothes available is very small and clothing is in the thousands of dollars per piece.

So far, the couture business for fashion houses like Giorgio Armand, Jean Paul Gautier and Christian Sacroiliacs hasn’t seen any fall off from the declining U.S. economy. The customers for couture exist at the very highest end of the economic spectrum and are often immune to even fairly dramatic economic shifts. Also new clients from Russia, the Middle East and Asia continue to provide a stream of new customers.

Chanel reports that today’s client wants a lot of attention and can be demanding. The Chanel team has flown around the world for fittings and presentations. It seems that today’s couture houses have to work harder for their customers than ever before often because today’s clients have increasingly busy schedules.

Couture also remains a way to reinforce a brand’s image. We can’t all afford the gorgeous Dalliances gown shown above but the beautiful couture clothing serves as an advertisement for the quality and inventiveness of the designer.

Sfila collection Dior spring-summer 2009 and has the impression of an excessive effort. In a note tune. Outside agreement. It would be almost a desire to remove or add something.

Thin lines and soaring that lievitano only on the back of a jacket, stones that are as small shooting stars jeans flashes by too Hollywood and even glasses that remind us improbable replicanti visas late hour on television. A collection or rather a fancy to Kris Van Assche for Dior waiting to be still stemperato. We look forward future parades.

creative dresses for the Indie bride,Fashion, Dress of the Day,Stylists

For non-traditionalist brides who want to eschew a fairytale white wedding dress and wear something that truly reflects an independent, creative and free spirit, finding the right dress, at an acceptable cost, can be quite a task.

Recently, we discovered,Wai-Ching Clothing, by Chrissy Wai Ching, a marvelous Seattle-based designer who has a range of fabulous ‘Indie’ bridal wear (and a great range of fashion clothing as well).

The good news is that even if you live far away from Seattle, you can still order a dress from Wai-Ching and know that it will fit you perfectly. The studio communicates closely with you to get your measurements and they guarantee a perfect fit.

Their designs can be altered to suit you, and they will happily adapt existing designs, adding, for example, straps, corset backs and trains. Best of all, though, are the prices. Most designer wedding dresses fall above the $2000 mark but a Wai-Ching gown can cost as little as $198.

For a look at some of our favorites designs from the range, click through the image gallery below, and don’t forget to visit the website for the full clothing range.

Here is a new trend for the men’s footwear. It is great, in deed, to see such an innovation for men’s shoes. Men with short heights often feel jealous of the high heel shoes for women and just wonder if they too, could wear shoes with heels so that they cal also look taller and more stylish. Well, the wishes of all such stylish and fashionable men have come true. Now, the men can wear wedge heels without any hesitation and look the most stylish guys around.

It is actually great to see that such a trend is being promoted at the gala event of the Milan Fashion Week and that too, by the well renowned fashion brand Fendi. The fashion designer introduced these innovative footwear with heels attached to the soles of men’s shoes. The audience was so delighted to see this latest trend brought in so grandly by the designer tag.

There have been so many new trends that have come to the fore during this fashion event such as mankini, shining macs and skirt shorts, but for me, the wedges for men are the best of all. Let’s hope to witness them soon at the high street fashion stores.

John Galliano for spring summer 2008 offers us for the umpteenth time a cascade of colors. A swirl of clothes and characters. A phantasmagorical time it becomes impossible to stop. A small republic or would be perhaps better to say dell’anarchia realm where everything is possible, where everything is stirred and is reborn into a flow really endless.

The Collection John Galliano spring-summer 2009 seems to move in an almost tribal dance that unites and dismembering. It creates and destroys joyfully in a game ridanciano of shapes and colors.

Dress of the Day: Plenty by Tracy Reese Linen Strapless Dress

Dress of the Day: Plenty by Tracy Reese Linen Strapless Dress.Dresses and Skirts,Dresses and Skirts, Tops, Under the Radar

Tracy Reese is known for femininity, with super-sweet dresses and lady-like lacy skirts. This dress, however, is a little bit of a departure from the frilly frills with a more aggressive color in bright sunny yellow, and a somewhat vintage-inspired plaid pattern. The Linen Strapless dress is made of of a silk/cotton blend fabric (natural fiber perfect for keeping cool in summer!) and features a wide waistband with a sharp contrasting pattern. More than anything, though, the dress has pockets, and you know how much we love the utility of a good set of pockets.

The dress would be perfect with a pair of patent leather Mary Janes.

Available from Revolve Clothing for $290.
