It’s Balenciaga, Baby!

Balenciaga Spring/Summer 2010 Ad Campaign

Balenciaga's power collage-style ad campaign

I hear a lot of people complaining about the Balenciaga Spring/Summer 2010 ad campaign, but really, to me, it’s just perfection. The power collage-style with models overlapping each other in a criss-cross way is pretty playful. Accompanied accordingly by splashes of sizzling colours like citric yellow, fanta orange and lime green amidst the clean so-not-boring grey background, this set of photographs by Steven Meisel just screams fresh in a larger than life way to me. That’s Balenciaga, baby!

Woven through a half boot, this pair of must-haves speaks of a terrifically tough style, while keeping someone calm and cool. Made in Italy, these leather sandals are truly the ultimate buddy to complement any summer looks. Are you ready? Let’s stir up a summer storm with Damir Doma!

Go Wild For Stella McCartney’s Lingerie

My Wildest Dreams...

Like a divine creature of nature, Dutch model Kim Noorda mesmerises all in Stella McCartney’s idyllic Spring/Summer 2010 ad campaign for the British IT Designer’s lingerie collection. Under the spellbinding lens of Tim Barber, this set of intimate photographs, shot both at home and in the wild, conveys the purity of fresh natural beauty. Although Ms. McCartney did work a lot of racy laces into the collection, she kept the collection youthful and delightfully sweet without veering into an overtly sexy path. As simple as it is, how could anyone not go weak in the knees for this?

Prada Spring/Summer Ready-to-wear 2010/11 Milan

Prada Spring Summr Ready to wear 2010 Milano

Mark Cox in Prada Spring/Summer 2010

To be perfectly honest with you all, this season, I am more in love with Prada’s menswear line than with its womenswear collection. A walk through the brightly-lit store space complete with racks and racks of spring/summer goodies, this feeling just intensifies even more so. If I could, I would have certainly done a grabsweep-and-run, regardless of whether the pieces actually flatter me or not. Well… Yes, sir, yes! I’m crazy! I’m crazy in love!

Céline Fall/Winter Ready-to-wear 2010/11 Paris

Céline Spring/Summer Ready-to-wear 2010 Paris

Caroline Brasch Nielsen, Carla Gebhart and Jaquelyn Jablonski in Céline

One sleepy “morning”, my friend woke me up from my most wanted and most needed beauty sleep to tell me to urgently check out Garance Dore’s video of Céline’s show. At first, I was doubtful. I mean was it really that powerful, that worthy to disrupt the most valued activity of my day? Moreover, does it truly live up to all the hypes and expectations? Well… Well… Well… To my surprise, Ms. Philo’s show for Céline was indeed everything of the above description and even more.

A quick look at Proenza Schouler’s Fall/Winter 2010/11 show, the designer duo Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough’s effort for pre-fall 2010 made sense as a prelude to the stunning show, which turned the inferno of sexuality to a sizzling extreme.
