Moschino Fall 2011 Ready to Wear: Official Flawless.

This is such an incredible collection. My favorite so far of the Fall 2011s.

Moschino did not go far from their territory, but it doesn't bore me just one bit.








These two little black dresses are so magnificent, so classic.



"Flawless."

Douglas Hannant Fall Ready To Wear 2011: The Twenties Girls.

This collection of Douglas Hannant travels back in time to the year of 1920s, and to a specific location, Chicago. 

Starts from the black crop hair to the sequins and to the short spaghetti Chicago-style dresses, matching perfectly well with the 1950s pillbox hats. 

Everything is marvelous. 





I so die to have that feature hat.

Christian Cota Fall Ready to Wear 2011: ANIMAL RESCUE!

Christian Cota is a new name, for me.
Although, this is his 5th show at the New York fashion week.


Animal print, especially leopard, and fur save the collection.
There are many pieces that I don't see myself love for a million years, but here, with those animal materials... they did save the day!

I have seen fur wore on many parts of the body and been used to make many pieces of cloth, but nothing is quite like these.


They're so fluffy, soft, warm, and more than that they're chic.
They even cover to the ear! This is just the best way to keep yourself warm and looking fashionably marvelous at the same time! 

OH. THANK YOU CHRISTIAN COTA FOR INTRODUCING THIS SUPERB ITEM TO US!



I honestly don't know what kind of fur it is, but truly I love it! 
It could look elegant for the lady and superbly edgy for the fashionistas.


Normally, I don't like the clothes with one-sided sleeveless. 
But, this dress looks beautiful, one big reason is because it's a combination between FUR and LEOPARD!
I love the fur around the neck, it's not too much and the color is rare. I also love the obliques.

I seriously don't know what this guy does with his dresses. I just know that this dress is hardly my style, totally out of my fashion taste. 
However, this is not the case here because it looks perfect. I love every single thing together here, but separately is another story.

Malandrino Fall Ready to Wear 2011: The Power Of Styling.

This is the first time I've ever heard of this brand. Malandrino didn't just debut, but it has been in New York fashion week for many seasons.

It was shameful that I just noticed it.

Generally, the clothes are not extremely extraordinary which leads me to realize how much impact great styling could have. From hair-dos, accessories, and how they put the pieces together, I would say it's a marvelous job!

The following will be examples of the great styling:

( Not that I think this gown is not marvelous, it is obviously! But I love how the hair was laid down to the side, and with the big glass which is risky but it's a statement component of the whole look! )




( O.M.G. I would die for this look! I love this look! This is just so perfect. )


However, I didn't mean to say this collection is simple and gains advantage only from the styling, because you know it's not true! Not at all!



 ( Theses are the most beautiful michelin coats ever! They're so pretty.
For the white one, I love the fluffy parts around the neck and the wrists. Lovee it!
For the purple one, it looks sophisticated and the neck part is just very classy, very russian. )


( This is my favorite coat. The design around the neck gives me a Count Dracular feel. However, I feel like I would walking around feeling like a queen in it. Oh. Only if I've got the crown to go with it. Hah. )

Rodarte: The Curve of Forgotten Things (2011)

This is not just any other fashion film. It carries a hidden meaning of environmental conscious all through the eight-minute short film.

I love the brownish tone, and I also love the light which gives the sunny day feel. It's not a warm sunny day but a hot dry day with a bright sunlight. 

Elle Fanning is all grown up. She looks tall and big now. She is undoubtedly a great actor although there is not much acting to do here.








The first green outfit is something. I love the detail especially the back and the wrists.




 This blue plaid outfit is well-made. There are little details you may not be able to see here, but if you look closely to a few pleats made around the upper thigh part of the pants.







This is my favorite skirts. I love the v-cut on each layer, especially when she moves and all the layers blooming out. Fascinating. And, the pretty roses graphic of the blouse is very beautiful.


However, for this scene, I don't know what they want to tell here. She was like a ghost dancing through the wall.






I superbly love this dress, my favorite from every Rodarte piece. I love the upper part so much. It's just so perfect for white and blue-purple to be together and I love the pattern with this material! Even though, the lower part is not my favorite, but together it's stunning.
I'm obsessed with backless items. And, here it is, though it's not deep but this will be just fine. :)








The gold dress truly deserves to be the finale. I'm so dying for the shoes. But the dress may be too gladiator, you think? But, I love the shoulders part, totally creative yet stunning. 




Somehow I find the ending scene too weird. So she is an alien? She is like visited this town she used to spend days in and felt disappointed then returned to her planet? Huh. Creative theme.

No matter how cliche the plot could be, I find this short film worth watching.
Firstly, the clothes are beautiful.
Secondly, it carries an environmental conscious smoothly, well, at least it doesn't feel like they are trying too hard to put it in.

But, honestly, I find the ending scene funny, regardless how beautiful the light is.
