no more monotone


it's spring, it's time to pull colours on your skin

All 2011 SS RTW
Christopher Kane

i also got a neon A-lined dress from 2nd hand store with HK$10 (~US$1.3)
jealous? :p

Rag & Bone
long sheer skirt is still the big hit 

Proenza Schouler
orange never makes me feel that good before PS did this nicely textured dress
clean but cheesy


 Prada

and if you are too not used to colours
here you go with some beige!

3.1 Philip Lim

Burberry Prorsum

finding another half


they finally find each other
and live happily ever after

prada SS 2011 mens+womens rtw

mens


womens


i m more into those mens platforms
isn't it making more contrary between 
the embossing and the straw/foam platform?
the juxtaposition is really fun

the good old days

finally the 16 looks are released
McQueen returns to the old ages in his last collection
inspired by paintings and 18th century dresses
the whole collection is nearly of Couture quality
they are stunning

interesting is that
his last controversial Armadillo shoes are said to be inspired by painting too
do you agree?
i do!

these are my faves from his last collection
personally i dont believe anyone can become the creative director of this strong brand
neither does Gareth Pugh
his design is so strong too and personal
in a sense of B&W, armed women
and Pugh has denied the rumour anyway

the show was held in the family headquarters of PPR
in Paris

basically i m in love with the headpiece
the print is a mixed collage of 18th century painting

awesome from the side

clean with a touch of wow factor

double cape
the embossment is really delicate

this is totally Princess Leia

inspiration of McQueen
"the garden of earthly delights"
masterpiece of Hieronymous Bosch

Prince of Hell
from the right part of the painting
wearing wine jars
which is very similar to the Armadillo shoes

i salute you, Lee Alexander McQueen.

when spaghetti meets McQueen

i came across this photo from Manish Arora earlier today
well..
this is the first time i heard of this brand
but it gives me a bad impression unfortunately..



the hair style of the fashion show is about crazy wig
but this one totally looks like spaghetti, no?

the dress immediately recalls me the last collection of the great McQueen
from cutting, colour to pattern
nth is exactly the same
but the combination makes it thou
the sad thing here is the WRONG length!
the silhouette ends up unflattering...
shoes don't match with the dress either..

what do you think then?

that's why we miss you!

everything goes 3D

after "everything goes LIVE"
3D is a MUST
every designer is keeping their show most up-to-date regarding the technology

i cannot enjoy the 3D burberry show in HK
but i found these really inspiring and cool

will you turn down mcqueen?








Abbey Lee Kershaw, Natasha Poly and Sasha Pivovarova had turned down McQ for his SS 2010 show in Oct last year, becoz of the impossibly high heel "armadillos". 
I believe that it is becoz they are famous enough to turn down a big designer more than concerning their health or concerning about what happened to Naomi Campbell 5 years ago in Westwood show.......

some people commented that it is a feminist move......... 
well..... they are exaggerating obviously..

this is life...
you can control if you have power, otherwise, you are the one to be controlled

happy 2010 anyway!

mcqueen is more than anything


i know i haven't been posting SS2010 runway shows for a long time
school work is heavy...
however, it is crazily impossible not to look at the show of Alexander Mcqueen
(i know i m late here, ha)
the forever genius
o no, this video is fabulous




you can see the softness of the fabric when it moves
how fit are they merging the models
but the figure and texture remind strong and powerful
i still think it looks a bit like starwar princess
although mcq was inspired by darwin
(darwin should be very pleased in heaven when he knows this!!!)
the colour, snake skin mutation and transformation of colours
and not to mention the elegant emergence of the "corn-like" beadings
they are totally insanely beautiful


snake skin transformation


corn-like beadings


star war princess?



shoes
everyone wants to get one, yes, one is ok, a pair is not defy! ha!
although it is not wearable, to me
but no one is not happy having one as sculpture at home, right?
oh, they tragger me to rush to learn ceramics
wouldn't it be fun to make crazy shoes out of ceramics? yada!!

this reminds me of "architecture facade"





melting, black has a clearer effect
