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

Chloé Spring Summer Ready to wear 2010 Collection Paris

Perhaps it’s the golden rays she sends out each season at Chloé, I’m actually warming up to Hannah MacGibbon – Creative Director of the French Luxury Fashion House. Well… It’s not the most avant-garde show I have ever seen, but nonetheless, it’s delightful and it’s desirable! With this winning combination, I am confident that Chloé’s financial matters will be enjoying quite a pleasant ride in the forthcoming fall.

Alexis Mabille’s Spring/Summer Haute Couture show 2010 is certainly something that I did not expect to see at first glance. No frills. No pretty bows. No lace. The show opened with Belarusian model Olga Sherer dressed in the French designer’s bi-colour pant suit look. As oppose to what the Lyon-born designer had been doing famously, this is certainly something new and fresh.

Patrizia Pepe’s On Fire!

Who else could work Patrizia Pepe’s Spring/Summer 2010 ad campaign as amazing as the sizzling hot Russian-born British model Masha Novoselova? Correct me if I’m wrong: dressed in the Italian label’s dazzling collection, the 24-year old sexy Siren, who stars in the campaign for the second time, truly looks like she’s on fire! Well… What are we waiting for? Shall we throw her into the water?

Eaudemoiselle de Givenchy

Eaudemoiselle de Givenchy

Eaudemoiselle de Givenchy

Although between Robert and I, we could make a million cheeky jokes about Givenchy’s new fragrance ad campaign for Eaudemoiselle (starting with whether the perfume should be named “eaudepond” or in the park “avec la cape de vampire”?); we know that seriously speaking: we love this daunting and haunting photograph of Polish model Magdalena Frackowiak by Liz Collins (and that above all, we secretly want Magda to bite us intensely and passionately!). The campaign perfectly portrays Givenchy’s dark yet romantic style, while exemplifying the French House’s core aristocratic values as well as its couture spirit as founded by couturier Hubert de Givenchy. Rose is accordingly the chief composition of Eaudemoiselle to create the imagery of “flower bathed in morning dew”.

Get ready! Eaudemoiselle is set to release in the first half of 2010.

I cannot call myself a fan of Calvin Klein at all – somehow the American label just seems to be too hyped, too popular and just not me. However, when I saw the Spring/Summer 2010 collection on Video Fashion, I just fell very deeply for it. I love the quiet but distinct and crisp voice the collection has. It is a real genuine charmer!

Is Dries Van Noten men and Dries Van Noten women one of the most matching couples in fashion history ever? Just like the Belgian designer’s womens collection, which we have just seen yesterday, South East Asia is the source of inspiration for menswear as well – creating an easy and non-chalant collection that is smart yet casual and refined yet never over the top.

Balenciaga Spring/Summer Ready-to-wear 2010 Paris

Since I like my clothes sharp and strong, I was expecting and kind of really wanted to see the remarkable return of technorobo for Balenciaga this season. Well… This only made it all the more unpredictable and beyond amazing to see designer Nicolas Ghesquière turning the wheels once again and redefining the refined Parisian label for Spring/Summer 2010. Well… Afterall, we are entering another new decade [1]. This pleasant collection surely accompanies us through the times and pushes us forward to be ready for the imminent future, that is bright and full of energy and enlightened optimism.
