Louis Vuitton Catwalk Fashion Show Paris SS2011

For Louis Vuitton Marc Jacobs presented a collection with a disco-chic vibe.

He gave the collection a bit an oriental feeling by adding shiny Eastern-inspired designs. Gracefully tailored trousers and body hugging dresses moved like waves around the models, with sequin cummerbunds tied at the waist (or in some cases at the hip), recreating the traditional kimono silhouette.

I absolutely adore all the colours, perhaps a bit campy, but hey I like a bit of that!

Mad Women

I just adore the Mad Men inspired fashion.

Louis Vuitton's Fall2010 campaign sets the spotlights on the 40′s, 50′s retro vibe of ultra-glam femmes, in diva-ish gear with full skirts and nipped in waists. Wearing full-out glamourous accessories and dressed to the hilt at all hours. 

Prada's Fall 2010 collection was heavy, full, and ultimately classic. The fifties and early-sixties influences were obvious to say the least: cat's eye glasses, beehives, and hourglass silhouettes will have fans of  Mad Men enthralled.

Who else could take a long, lean skirt in sumptuous floral-print duchesse silk, pair it with an oversized, sleeveless sweatshirt and make the mismatched ensemble the height of chic? Yes it is Dries van Noten.
Van Noten weaved disparate elements – from rough canvas fabrics in military drab to fancy, matador-style silver embroidery – into a gorgeous, toned-down collection. An indigo stain spread down one bottle-shaped cocktail dress with a nipped waist, making the floral silk look as if it had been on the receiving end of a bottle of India ink. (In fact, it had. Van Noten said his team brushed on layer after layer of indigo paint onto the silk.)
