RUNWAY RUNDOWN: Rodarte S/S 10

RUNWAY RUNDOWN: Rodarte S/S 10  fashionIt’s safe to say that Kate and Laura Mulleavy’s Spring 2010 Rodarte collection was a stress release. They ripped, tore and destroyed to their heart’s content taking their glamorous grungy appeal and increasing it tenfold. This season was all about confidence in flaws, and isn’t it obvious with all the sloppy, yet precise, draping and unique tears? While I did appreciate a grubbier vibe from Rodarte, I was a bit distracted by the arm tattoos and felt that the collection would have spoken louder sans the body art.

FYI DIY: Christian Louboutin x Rodarte Heels  fashionFYI DIY: Christian Louboutin x Rodarte Heels  fashionI’ve had my eye on the studded and spiked Christian Louboutin x Rodarte heels since they hit the streets in February of 2008. Over a year later, I’m still severely obsessed with them, and thanks to the crafty DIY project by Patricia at Fashion Mongers, we all can look forward to replicating our very own Loubs! 

Constructed from a pair of old Mary-Janes, a variety of pronged studs, super-glue, a hammer and a lot of patience, my new favorite Fashion Monger put a spin on the Christian Louboutin x Rodarte heels and created them for a mere dollars!

Is Arnhem the New Fashion Capital?


admin June 12 at 9:50 | Comments

Is Arnhem the New Fashion Capital? fashion

Arnhem a city in the Netherlands which is described as a new direction in fashion.

Surprisingly, Arnhem has been off the fashion radar up until pretty much now, despite the fact that the fashion festival, Arnhem Mode Biennale, engulfs the whole city at once, celebrating the works of other dutch and european designers. With installations from fashion legends such as Calvin Klein, Viktor&Rolf, Maison Martin Margiela, Balenciaga, and of course the big guns; this is a festival for the fashion deprived to learn of fashion’s heroes.

Beautiful as it is, I wish every county had a city as inspirational as Arnhem, celebrating fashion as it is supposed to be, not as a taboo as it is in some counties. In simple terms, I think London should celebrate british and european designers in the same light, as London exports so much talent, if a festival was held as a tribute, it would be a worldwide celebration!
