Valentino Goes Long

Edited by Jessica Lapidos

Credit as you may Anne Hathaway, Angelina Jolie and Florence Welch and her machine, for the resurgence in long-sleeved gowns. This fashion month, however, few did it better than Valentino in his ready-to-wear collection. Demure, sheer infused and regal, these pieces make modesty sensually sexy.

Haider Ackermann’s ascension to… Christian Dior?

Edited by Benjamin Kanarek

I have been observing the evolution of Haider Ackermann for several seasons, as he is one of my favorite new designers when it comes to womens’ clothing. In my humble opinion, his last two seasons in Paris outclassed all of the other Designers’ Women Collections by a long shot.

PARTNER: Runway Review: Alexander Wang Resort 2011

Edited by The Fashion Web

The Alexander Wang Resort 2011 collection is nothing to scream about, just like most in-between major season’s collections. (ie Pre-fall). Alexander Wang’s collections is one of the labels which we seem to make regular reviews about. This season, we see a continuation of design details from the Fall/Winter 2010, like the deconstructed blazer.

There is the socks+sandals combination which most people still have issues with, but I have more issues with this model’s eyebrows not matching her hair colour. :/

I really love the pleated waistline of these pants although the length doesn’t appeal much to me.

I like the whole relaxed feel that the collection is giving. On their own,they’re definitely pieces one can picture themselves wearing.

Overall, not very exciting. Let’s hope the new Spring/Summer 2011 collection won’t disappoint.
