Issa

Late I know, but I LOVE THIS COLLECTION! One word describes it: WEARABILITY! I could wear every item that came down that runway! The prints were delicate, the clothes were feminine, and were stylish without trying to hard. This designer is definitely one to watch.

Vivienne Westwood Red Label

Westwood wants you to care about the environment! She recently been quoted saying, "I just tell people, stop bying clothes. Why not protect this gift of life while we have it? I don't take the attitude that destruction is inevitable. Some of us would like to stop that and help people survive it." There were a vast array of tees printed with save the earth slogans. The rest of the collection however was classic Westwood. There was plaid, there was contrasting, clashing prints and there were brightly colored tights. Everything we know and love about Westwood was there!

There were great moments in this collection brought around by the softer simpler pieces that provided a satisfying break between the clashing patterns, such as the simple black evening cocktail dress towards the end. The beauty of a Westwood collection however is the chaos, any person at any age is bound to find a look they desire.

Burberry strikes again!

Chistopher Bailey does it once again! The Burberry show at London fashion week made a gigantic splash. The audience was filled with top-models, actresses and of course Anna Wintour in the front row. There was much buzz surrounding this show as Bailey has rejuvenated the brand bringing their name back into the spot light, all was excited to see what his vision was for the fall 2010 season.

Bailey said he "wanted it to be about heritage", he was inspired by the archives at Burberry especially a sketch of an aviator jacket he had found. The military, aviation presence was ever clear on the garments. Bailey used large gold buttons, accented shoulders and many short structured jackets. The collection was coat heavy, skirts were mid length as Bailey focused on using sky high boots. The color palette moved from green to blue.

The collection was fabulous, Bailey is seriously one of the most innovative, creative designers of our time.
