Day 3 of RAFW: Kate Sylvester Spring/Summer Collection 2010/11
Today, New Zealand designer Kate Sylvester presented a spring/summer 2010/11 show that takes everyone high above the skies with delight. With big pretty bows, little frills and girly laces, the collection was ultra sophisticated and feminine. However, there was also a sense of power and strength, as Ms. Sylvester exposed the zippers and added masculine checks, metallics and hard-core leather to the look. Hence, the title of the collection as “The Charming Man”.

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?

The Midsummer Odyssey by But-Sou Lai
Last month, we brought to you Lane Crawford’s smashing Spring/Summer 2010 publication – The Portfolio featuring an exclusive editorial with the drop dead gorgeous Dree Hemingway. It would be completely wrong of me to the stylish crowd all over the world, if I don’t post the corresponding menswear publication, would it not? Well… Better late than never, here it comes.
For men, The Portfolio presents a thorough global trend report that shall not be missed. From Eastern Promises to Desert Storm, what is in now is in The Portfolio. The highlight of which for me is naturally the editorial entitled “The Midsummer Odyssey”. Amidst a raw and ramshackle building, photographer But-Sou Lai encapsulates the essence of the season: a marvelous mix of understated soft tailoring with utilitarianism, the vivacity of ethnic influences and modern artisan. The result illustrates the charm of a modern man in a plain and simply irresistible way.

Invitation to the Launch Party
Yes, American Apparel – the coolest and largest clothing manufacturer in the United States – is available in Seibu in Hong Kong, but that little corner hardly does any justice to the urban chic consumer, who would love to shop the sensational collection thoroughly and yet not be bothered to go across the border to its flagship store in one of the 31 places to visit in 2010 according to the New York Times -Shenzhen. So it gives us great pleasure to be one of the first to hear that this Californian born and breed brand will land exclusively in Lane Crawford this month for four short weeks only.
A special pop-up shop will be set up from April 9 to May 11, 2010 at Lane Crawford IFC mall. It will feature a diversified range of the true blue American label’s fun and sexy pieces for men, women, children and even pets. How you wear it is entirely up to you. Additionally, there is a launch party this Friday April 9, 2010 from 6-9 pm. This will surely be a beyond amazing affair.
Well… What are we waiting for? Let’s hit the floor and boost some sales figure!

A walk through Lane Crawford’s IFC Mall store, we discovered not only the latest, the hottest and the most sought-after of everything in fashion and lifestyle, but also inspirational art that demonstrates immense creativity and wild passion. The latest attraction at the almost 160-year-old department store is an explosively cool pop-up store and an incredible installation by the ingenious Michael Costiff.

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.
