Russian model Maria Kashleva wears Viktor and Rolf's short taffeta dress
Just as you think you have had enough of the little black dress, here comes another one – making its way gracefully as the cool new kid on the block in my favourite list. In many ways, this little number (EUR 785,00) by Dutch designer duo Viktor and Rolf is beyond special. Naturally, the first thing that caught our eye is the razzle-dazzling diamante element. However, the exquisite material (100% China Silk), its stunning slightly squared-off shape (around the hips) as well as its fantastic front pockets design are not to be left unsaid. Wearable may not a word directly linked to the avant-garde Designers at all times, but this simply ingenious piece certainly shows the world something different! Just stunning!
Viktor and Rolf’s short silk dress with front pockets is available at The Corner.

Russian model Maria Kashleva shows off Viktor & Rolf’s Cruise 2010 Collection
I simply cannot believe I did not see Viktor & Rolf’s Resort 2010 collection earlier. I mean everything in the collection is so phenomenally beautiful that I really hope each and every piece of the collection could and would make its way to the stores. Unquestionably, it ought to!

Australian model Abbey Lee Kershaw in Alexander Wang's Resort Collection
It totally stinks that we were not able to find any good [1] Alexander Wang stuff at final sales anywhere at all! Argh… Did someone hide ‘em all for themselves – instead of benefitting the food good of the society? Seriously, do I really have to pay full price to wear one of those extremely cool but thin-as-nothing Tee from him? [2] Besides, you know what? Last season stock is actually quite appetising on me, despite being ‘old’ and ‘out of fashion’.

Zac Posen Cruise 2010
At first, I was not exactly sure about Zac Posen’s green and polka dotted vision for Cruise 2010. My first thought was: “What is it? Christmas in July with Santa camouflaged in the Safari Jungle?” But then, after seeing its adaptation on Bergdorf Goodman, I became rather fond of it. It’s sweet, fresh, young and chic – a combination that acts as a perfect charm for Cruise 2010, which we simply cannot get enough of now and forever!
Presented in the picture above are Zac Posen’s Shutter-Pleated Silk Blouse (USD $690.00 ) & Lace-Overlay Pencil Skirt (USD $990.00); Polka-Dot Knit Dress (USD $490.00); and Satin Cornelia Dress (USD $1,590.00). Available at Bergdorf Goodman, net-a-porter and Neiman Marcus.

Stella McCartney's sexy Scalloped Lace Dress
Black is sexy! Lace is sexy! So putting these two sexy elements together, well… what else do we get? Something explosively super sexy!!! With its intricate network of sexy black lace, Stella McCartney’s sleeveless dress ($USD$1,795.00) practically spells out sexy word by word like no other. I love the fact that it has an exquisite scalloped trim. It adds an extra kick to the dress making stealing the night just a dress away.

Stella McCartney's Strapless Ruffled Dress and Versace's Belted Floral Shirtdress
Hey, everyone! Welcome to 2010! I hope you all had a splendid New Year’s celebration and that 2010 will be filled with many great moments for you.
To begin 2010 officially, let’s start off being spring loaded with something that is simple yet everlastingly elegant – floral dresses. Two of the top choices from Bergdorf Goodman’s Spring Preview for me are: Stella McCartney’s Strapless Ruffled Dress (USD$1,965.00) and Versace’s Belted Floral Shirtdress (USD$1,985.00). With its alluring printwork of the precious blue and purple flower, Versace’s silk shirtdress is remarkably fresh and lively. Ms. McCartney’s A-line skirt with the pretty wisteria print is for sure a girl’s best friend! I love the fact that it’s young, fun and so unbelievably refreshing! Perfect for dancing all day and all night long.
Available for pre-order from Bergdorf Goodman.

Sculpture-Collar Shirt from Jil Sander
Corporate-wear should not be restrictive or boring in any way at all, rather it should build up character – as shown by influential style icons, like Carla and Michelle. One piece that shapes and sculpts that strength flawlessly is none other than Jil Sander’s Sculpture-Collar Shirt ($USD 595.00). The cotton shirt with its sculptured collar impeccably exhibits the minimalist fashion label’s signature sleek streamline style. Made in the shade of pure white, the tailored shirt speaks strongly of a distinct precision in style with a twisted flavour of a love for both the classics and the contemporary.
Available now from both Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcus.

Chanel's Plastic is Fantastic.
Time flies and all of a sudden, Christmas is almost here! I don’t know about you, but do you remember Chanel’s Cruise Show, shown at the poetic setting of the Lido Beach in Venice in May early this year? Well… The charming cruise line is officially in stores now. I don’t know whether you have a chance to check out these incredible creations by all the incredible Mr. Lagerfeld, but all of the pieces are quite pleasing to the eye… well… all except of one pair of plastic high-heeled rain booties, which puzzled me tremendously at first sight, but regained its magnificent splendour shortly after.
Working plastic into the high-fashion bracket is certainly not a piece of cake, because it’s so stiff and uncomfortable. What struck me completely about that pair at first glance through the glossy display window is that it appears there are hideous holes punched on the shoe’s surface like contagious chicken pox. As a conscious consumer, I invited myself in store swiftly and immediately began harassing the “friendly” sales staff about my sincere concern over smelly wet feet. To my surprise, she took my genuinely bright question as an insult to the collection somewhat peculiarly, but held her regality remarkably by explaining calmly that those are indeed feet-friendly breathing holes.
Well… That all makes sense now, doesn’t it?
