Leather straps

Iris Van Herpen, diseñadora de modas graduada en la Artez Art School, empezó en los talleres de diseñadores como Alexander McQueen y Viktor & Rolf, y en 2007 creó su propia marca. Para su coleccion S/S '10 presentó una serie de diseños que fueron aclamados por la critica.
Ahora vuelve con su colección AW 10-11  impulsando su individualidad. Y para quienes dicen que la moda no puede ser arte, creo que tendran que recapacitar.

Locked up in chains

If you are the kind of people who looks for risque accesories, well maybe this article may be interesting for you.
Earlier this year Alexander Wang´s muse, model and style icon Erin Wasson, became a designer by launching her own jewelry line called Low luv. Basically the pieces consist of body chains, so sexy under a t-shirt or a simple dress, rings and some other news.
However, jewelry designer Bliss Lau recently claim Erin´s line is a replica of her 2007 Bliss line.
 ¿Is it true that Wasson stole Bliss designs? Judge for yourself, in the meantime, you can find this jewelry pieces in stores for $1000, ¿ridiculously expensive?, I know, but let´s not forget we can always count on low-budget shops that are responsible for making replicas of all the designs that some of us (let´s face it) can not afford. Thank god for them!

Towering Shoes

 

Nicholas Kirkwood for Rodarte  Fall '10 Shoes.
What a piece of artwork.
I read about this collection and I loved from where the inspiration came. I promise I´ll post it next time, as soon as I have all the pics in my hands.

Tendencias

Abrigos con insignias, shorts y medias hasta las rodillas al estilo boy-scout fueron parte de la coleccion Otoño RTW-10 presentada por Unique para Topshop, donde los colores ocre, kaki y azul marino reinaron. Para mi, las formas abultadas, los tejidos y la mezcla de texturas fueron lo mas fascinante de esta pasarela. Estoy segura de que en unos meses mas comenzare a ver medias y calcetones gruesos desfilar por las calles.

Para la coleccion Primavera Couture-10 de Karl Lagerfeld para Chanel se presentaron desde sus ya reconocidos "tweed suits" hasta peinados muy elaborados en forma de corazón. Una linda gama de colores pastel y plata fueron el foco principal creo yo de esta colección. Al parecer según Lagerfeld, el oro esta "out" y el plata esta de nuevo a la moda. Juzguen ustedes mismos.

Los diseñadores Viktor&Rolf presentaron una coleccion Primavera RTW-10 fuera de serie.
Mientras que otros diseñadores han apostado por ir a lo seguro sin lograr proponer muchas veces nada nuevo, el dúo neerlandés se atrevio a dejar lo convencional de lado y experimentar cortando sus vestidos de tul con una sierra de cadena, literalmente. Yo los considero a ambos unos maestros del ingenio y la extravagancia.
