I Love Manolo Blahnik too!

No one captures the heart of every woman except Manolo Blahnik. He is solely responsible for the design of every thousand pairs of shoes that bear his signature.

When Carrie Bradshaw, the shoe-loving main character of the Sex And The City TV series, took a wrong turn after lunch in SoHo she found herself on one of New York’s grungier side streets and face-to-face with a mugger. “Please sir,” she pleaded. “You can take my Fendi baguette, you can take my ring and my watch, but don’t take my Blahniks.”

Unfortunately, the mugger took off her favorite pair of strappy Manolo’s.

Manolo Blahnik

The TV series plays a very important role in Manolo’s life. He has become one of the renowned designers whose name is synonymous with their product. The name itself – Manolo – is now used as a label to describe very expensive and very beautiful shoes. Even though some people never have a chance to see the actual pair of Manolo Blahniks.

I really really appreciate the works of Manolo. His remarkable achievement given that Blahnik is solely responsible for the design and prototype of every shoe that bears his name without any apprentices. Without any formal trainings in shoe-making, he has dominated the entire shoe business in London“I didn’t need it,” Blahnik told his friend Michael Roberts only half-jokingly in the late 1970s, “because I’ve got the best taste in the world.”

Trench coats are the main pieces for the upcoming Spring/Summer 2010 trend. The trench has been reinvented and designed particularly for the hippie chic ages 18-to 25 years old.
Beige color is very popular and trendy in this collection as well as military motives are still fresh.

Indeed, the Burberry trench coats are a must-haves for every fashionista all over the world most especially in England where rainy days are being experienced.

Aside from the trench, the Burberry designer tried some extraordinary short dresses made of light airy fabrics. The materials has something never done by Burberry before, they were twisted, pleated and draped.

The colors are all subdued such as gray, mint green, lavender, rosy, yellowish, and other pastel colors. Nothing was bright or catchy color in this collection.

For me, the entire collection gives the impression of luxury, glamor and calmness.

She played open mike nights at clubs at 14 and entered the Tisch School of the Arts at NYU at the age of 17. She signed some recording and writing contracts for other artists and recently, she was successfully released her debut album “The Fame” at 22.

White as the key opening color of this spring 2010 was inspired by Niemeyer who designed a certain number of his buildings in white. Niemeyer’s lifeworks are generally curvilinear and based on reflecting and imitating the abundance and altered fauna of his native Brazil. In contrast to the latest clothing lines of Gucci’s creative director Frida Giannini were largely linear and straight.

The collections are looked great in an excellent series of evening looks. Designed with tapered pants cut off above the ankle and fine two-button suits made in cool jacquards and silks in wonderful hues of indigo and burnt rose.

The Gucci menswear, besides of its less Brazilian style had even little to do with modern men’s fashion. Some of them looked too familiar from Giannini’s most recent collections for the brand and their New Wave rocket attitude.

The designer also showcased a series of surfer looks made of modern nylons and micro fibers, but looks seem someone who had never actually surfed designed them.

“High tech kite surfer,” said Gianinni, who confessed to not having really tried the sport. “My arms are too weak,” she laughed. (yahoo fashion news)

Oscar Niemeyer never recognized his ideas in this Gucci collection even his buildings tapped directly into his immediate and exotic environment for inspiration.

The Saharan theme creates a lively setting in stylish beige leather tops and bags with patchwork covered the show. A wide array of colors such as palette of khaki, white and sand is being used on silk muslin and crumpled leather fabrics.

The overall show made a genial roving nonchalance that recalled military braiding through its smart details like cavalry tassel belts and wristbands or even on faille collars on tuxedos.

Prada Men Spring 2009/2010 Milan Fashion Week

You could imagine the show seems a somber summer moment because of quotes in giant two-foot-high script and the charcoal foam seating to the collection itself, largely made up of various takes on gray.

Miuccia once said: “A movie, in black and white,” floated around with trays of the ideal, color coordinated cocktail – a White Russian. Even though it was restricted in color, this is one of the most innovative shows ever in Milan collections.

The designer remake her own silhouette and tailoring in an excellent way exclusively for Milan. The newest innovative thing could be found on jackets where the jacket lapel is drawn out to the belly button and even double-breasted looks have just two buttons.

The Prada’s accessory department also had an excellent part to the whole transparency trend of this four-day Italian event. The house showcased perforated leather shoes and pork pie hats and see-through dusters in a mesh nylon material paired with sneakers and fishing gears.
