Rodarte ~ Autumn/ Winter 2011/12





















Rodarte it seems; have appeared out of nowhere and become one of the most anticipated shows of the fashion week calendar. Dubbed by Anna Wintour as the "new McQueen's" the Mulleavy sisters have certainly got my attention and with this beautiful collection inspired by the wheat fields of the Great American Plains, it has cemented that they have a truly amazing vision season after season.

This collection uses the most incredible pallette of soft femminine colours taken straight from the fields and the ever-changing weather, dresses in sky-blue and storm cloud grey with wheat printed hemlines. Modernised prarie girl silhouettes gives the collection a dynamic, fresh look, in addition; a few little references to The Wizard of Oz with those dazzling little red numbers and completled with windswept hair and killer cowboy-esq boots by Nicholas Kirkwood, makes this my favourite show so far.

The Row ~ Autumn/Winter 2012

















Absolutley stunning collection from style icons- the Olsen twins.
I love everything about this collection; the strong masculine tailoring set along side the very feminine lace, the grey and brown fur and wool combo's, the powerful silhouettes and that powder blue fur jacket is simply amazing. The styling for this collection is pefection for me and this will be my inspiration for my winter dressing, although with it not even being summer yet I must supress the temptation to start wrapping fur round my head...

Alexander Wang Autumn/Winter 2012














I LOVE WANG because he is always trying something new, this Autumn/Winter he has brought us an innovotive mix of soft shiny silks with thick wool, fur and leather. The shapes are so interesting and the capes that merge two fabrics are facinating. The pallette he has chosen is a sumptuous range from raven black, cloudy day grey, and ballerina pink with hints of maroon, yellow and purple.
The Prodigy remix soundtrack had me excited from the start and as soon as I saw the fur sunglasses I kenw it would be brilliant! I love that he is carrying on the sleevless jacket trend as I am totally coveting it right now...
What a fantastic start to the season, bring it ON fashion week(s) !
