Victoria Beckham does it again

By admin | February 11, 2008

The New York Fashion Week 2008 saw many celebrities in their ‘what they think’ their killer outfits. While designers such as Marc Jacobs and Ralph Lauren never failed to surprise the fashionistas with their yet again unique designs and fabrics, Victoria Beckham was the prized catch for the shutterbugs as she made a posh and spicy appearance in her backless top.

The woman surely is a beauty, I must say and she indeed deserves the tag of being the most stylish celebrity. At 33, she has the curves that any actress would die to have and she still oozes the oomph factor with style and attitude, which is hard to beat.

Successful in all her projects, a super sexy mama and a society friendly celebrity, she made a thunderous appearance in the Marc Jacobs show at New York Fashion Show and bingo, she overshadowed even the famous supermodel Heidi Klum, with her bare dare backless shot.

Oh boy, you definitely cannot miss her hot prison – chic get-up. Some might say she looks pathetic, but folks, my friends and I are just smitten by her unique idea. She looks stunning.

Who says, that it is a prisoner’s yucky shade, people add some colour to your life. Learn it from Victoria.


Balmain Rocks: New York Fashion Week

By admin | February 9, 2008

Balmain

Balmain has been one of my hot favorites so far. I simply adore the exuberance of this French couturier. The ultra- modern and superbly gorgeous fashion that is defined by this great maestro of art is commendable. This year too, the designer collection by Pierre Balmain has been greatly applauded by the fashion freaks. The style that he flaunts is too chic. Of course, he is one of the most popular designers among the royal classes of Europe and Hollywood too.

Balmain

This year, I was eagerly waiting for his collection to be unleashed and like each year, his creativity widens the outlook of fashion lovers. I was completely overwhelmed by the beautiful collection designed by such a great artist. What is peculiar about his collection
is that it tends to sustain a feminine charm about it while it exudes the modern flavor. The elegance of his silhouettes is absolutely awe-inspiring. The magnificence and the sumptuousness displayed by the garments of this immensely artistic designer are incomparable.

This year, the great variety of the designs in the designer collection has been appreciated by the onlookers. I personally like the transient gowns which partially flaunt the beautiful bodies of the models. The colors used in the outfits are not overtly bright and put forward a very soothing aura.

Style Divas in Paris Fashion Week

The awesome threesome lady hot shots took the Paris Fashion week by storm when they were seated in the privileged front row seats attending the Roland Mouret Haute Couture Spring-Summer 2008 collection. The Beckham girl as usual was dressed for the occasion. Victoria loves to hog the lime light and this time too she did make a style statement by wearing somewhat an oldie looking outfit. Fashion critics might have overlooked her style sense this time but she couldn’t shoo away the bloggers space who hunted her down and gave their words on how she looked.

Victoria came dressed in RM. It did overshadow her style stunts earlier though for sure it wouldn’t look bad on you. This is how she was dressed- a silk tweed knee-length dress in light grey shade. The dress had contrast panels and done in origami fold detailing. With nice looking pleats under the waist, an inverted pleat on front and cotton vitro pleats on shoulder, the dress will surely enhance your look when matched with black pumps and a classic Dior bag. Mark my words!

Okay, now talking about the other two babes, who joined the front row, was Dita Von Tesse and the ever-smashing Claudia Schiffer.

Dita was dressed in an RM navy coloured knee-length cotton stressed outfit. It had a high-cut neckline with raised darts, drape work at the waist that was centered on a tiny diamond shaped panel. The sleeves were cap shaped with little bit of drape detailing on the shoulder. I must say, she looked good the way she carried it. However, some might say that she appeared more like a Hollywood pimp. No offence intended.

I liked Claudia Schiffer the best. She looked stunning in the way she carried the overall match that she did flaunt that day.

Stella McCartney

It was the eminent day of 4th October, 2007, when the gala event of the Paris Fashion scene witnessed the hip style of Stella McCartney. The designs and the colors were too appropriate to be called the spring-summer collection. The colors were very relaxing and attractive. The flowing locks of the beautiful models flaunting the gorgeous dresses displayed a sense of carefree attitude and a mood for fun and frolic.

Stella McCartney

Floral prints and a variety of colors were prevalent in the collection as a symbol of the spring season. The fabric used also signified a taste for elegance and also liberation. She mostly used chiffon, georgette, and layered ivory for her designer wear collection.

Stella McCartney

The wooden heels that the models exhibited complemented the style of the dresses, and showed her love for natural things. The bags being displayed at the show also had colorful appearance and the patterns were also too good. Just have a look at the beautiful patterns of her garments. I really adore the styles of the back portion of her outfits. They are very sensual.
