Piercing eyes penetrate through our souls.
Even though the hottest ticket in town (a.k.a sales) is no longer valid at Lane Crawford, we are lured to step into the sweet-scented department store to discover the new season’s entrancing enticements up close and personal, while attempting to meet the ever so impeccable Ms. Sarah Rutson serendipitously and intimately for the trillionth time. The first and foremost origin of this forbidden temptation is none other than a sneak peek of the drop dead sexy Spring/Summer 2010 Ad campaign, entitled “The Portfolio”.

3.1 Phillip Lim Initials Lingerie Spring 2010 Collection.
Earlier this February, we looked at 3.1 Phillip Lim’s Initials lookbook for Spring/Summer 2010 and drooled over its sugar-filled sexiness. Today, we meet the lovely lingerie collection once again in the vast spaces of the lavish Department store Lane Crawford. Whether seeing it on the doll, on the models in the press photos or alone as itself, the collection exudes youth and elegance with a sense of health and well-being. Sportswear has, no doubt, placed a hale and hearty dose of influence on the collection making us wanna forget all about our outerwear and just run out of the house in 3.1 Phillip Lim’s Initials lingerie.

Romanian model Andreea Diaconu shows off Schumacher's Spring/Summer 2010 Collection in Bebelplatz, Belin
Reading Russian writer Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn’s (1918-2008) semi-autobiographical work Cancer Ward, I found a passage that reminded me of the finesse beauty of Schumacher’s Spring/Summer 2010 collections, especially the boat-neck shirt with the sparkling lips motif, which we wrote about a month ago.
“Her smile was kind, not so much as the lips themselves. They were vital, separate lips, which seemed about to flutter from her face like a lark into the sky. They were made, as all lips are, for kissing, yet they had other more important work to do: to sing of brightness and beauty.” – page 79.
See Schumacher’s Spring/Summer 2010 collection yourself online at My Theresa and in KaDeWe Berlin, Harrods and Lane Crawford.

French model Morgane Dubled shows off Stella McCartney’s Lingerie Collection Fall/Winter 2009
Each season, I look at Stella McCartney’s lingerie collection and it has never let me down. Stella has definitely convinced me that wearing granny’s high-waisted underwear is actually cool. Although she has gradually moved on from grandma’s undies in terms of conceptual designs, her understated collections remain sensual and alluring.

RM by Roland Mouret Capsule Collection for Lane Crawford
Sunday, 14th February 2010 is a special day. Not only is it a day to celebrate the lunar New Year for Chinese residing all over the world, but also Valentine’s Day – a time to express our love for our special someone. To commemorate this significant day, how else to dress than in bold vivacious shades of red and fuchsia – the very symbolic colour of romance in Western Culture as well as the colour of luck, fortune and happiness in traditional Chinese culture? Reading my mind on that special thought is the designer Roland Mouret, who has created the Limited Edition RM by Roland Mouret Capsule Collection for what else but our favourite department store – Lane Crawford!

Alexander McQueen for Lane Crawford's must have scarf
If you have me on your twitter, you may already know that I am guilty of cleaning out the entire Luella store of last season stock, last last season stock and prehistoric stock; and am thereby, banned from shopping anywhere online and offline this month. However, I am glad to announce that my quota for February is still wide open. One item that I am eager to snatch off the rack as soon as it touches the shelf is Alexander McQueen’s exclusive collection for Lane Crawford – due to arrive on the very first of February (that’s just tomorrow!!!)!

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’.

GIVENCHY for LANE CRAWFORD Symmetrical Print Tee
Although final sales is neigh at Lane Crawford and that we should really only go nuts and purchase propitious sales items; we spotted one terrific item that made us break our wallet: Givenchy for Lane Crawford’s Symmetrical Print T-Shirt (HK$1,800) – available at Lane Crawford’s IFC Mall and Pacific Place stores. Designed by Creative Director Riccardo Tisci, this limited edition Tee exhibits an indifferent air with its eccentric graphics inspired by North Africa and the Italian Renaissance, as shown on the runway this Spring/Summer 2010. 100 T-shirts are to be distributed worldwide. So make sure you snap it quick and not become its star-crossed lover.

Hello, I love You! Won't You Tell Me Your Name?
Dear Lane Crawford,
Sorry to be so whiny like my old grandma, but as an admirer of Sarah’s ever so striking style, I just have to point out these unjust and unreasonable imperfections in regards to this new feature called Fashion Director’s Video Diary on your wonderful website. Firstly, please cut out the runway only videos. Without Sarah’s ingenious insights, these feel and are completely superfluous. Secondly, although Sarah’s lovely lips are oh-so-delectable and that her style is ever so impeccable, we need to see more of her gorgeous face. Please don’t hide it away from us any longer! Thirdly, please consider a full screen and HQ option. That’ll allow us to fully experience the true hypnotic power of Sarah the clothes as presented in the video. Am I right?
Now that I’m through with my complaints constructive criticism, let’s say something nice: I really enjoyed the close up pics of the clothes as well as Sarah’s poise, insight and style in the video. She really shed us light this Spring/Summer 2010. We truly cannot wait till 21 Jan for the next instalment of sizzling style.
Yours most truthfully,
-Concerned Buyer, Blogger and Wannabe Adviser-
