If blogging was a bill, I would be in covered in debt and in retribution for my delayed reviews, I will be posting something new every night. Tonight is special because not only did I blog about Proenza (see previous post), but I will be catching all you fashion lovers on all the best shows (NY, MILAN, PARIS) that you missed!
In addition to the fashion week frenzy, Wednesday I will go fabric shopping, and begin a new collection for the Tickle Me Pink Fashion Show which will be on May 26 (pencil it in!). I won't give anything away, but there is going to be a floor-length piece included in the collection! I am also going to have a fashion shoot within the next two weeks, courtesy of B.W.I.M.P.N previously known as "photographieunique." Also I will be working on a mood board for a project, so that might debut on here.
On with the shows...
Although this is a random assemblage of shows, there is an underlying theme that ties each of them together: the 70's. Whether Italian born, or French, designers decided to go with this Vietnam-war driven decade and have each adapted it to their own unique aesthetic. Notice the wide legged pants, lowered hemlines, flat hair, and lack of excessive draping. Garments just seem to flow effortlessly down the runway especially at the Dolce & Gabbana show. Most things are simple, yet designers managed to create exciting collections, without boring the audience. For example Nicola Formichetti, Lady Gaga's stylist (thanks Mister Lee for teaching me this at LIM College) designed his first ready-to-wear collection for Thierry Mugler, and Lady Gaga was not absent from the show either! Despite Gaga's disaster hair-do, Formichetti's collection had a structured edge to it and he also incorporated the 70's into it through his use of color!
Every magazine's headlines for the their spring issues are something along the lines of "THE 70's ARE BACK!" Vogue and Elle are not wrong--collared shirts, long skirts, and hats are back in and once again fashion has repeated itself (shocking). The decade has made a successful return in the year 2011!
