Damir Doma Syndrome

Damir Doma Spring/Summer Ready-to-wear 2010 Collection

Damir Doma Femerus Sandal

I don’t believe anyone could survive the unbelievable summer heat without a fantastic pair of sandals. Dropping down from heaven are these Damir Doma gladiators. 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!

A Chic Chignon

Chignon in Double Magazine Spring/Summer 2010

Russian model Eugenia Volodina in Chignon

Thank god she is back in action, because Eugenia Volodina is simply the perfect model to embody classic grace and elegance in this editorial entitled “Chignon” in the Spring/Summer 2010 issue of Double Magazine. Photographed by Paul Wetherell, this set of 11 images shows off a range of understated pieces styled together by the magnificent Mattias Karlsson. With natural make up by Hiromi Ueda and an immaculate chignon by James Rowe, the Russian’s striking look is far from being rusty, as she works the power of enchantment like no other.

Check out the rest of the images on The Fashion Spot.

Alexander McQueen Spring/Summer Ready-to-wear 2010 Lookbook

Latvian model Yulia Leontieva and Russian model Eugenia Mandzhieva in Alexander McQueen Spring/Summer Ready-to-wear 2010 Lookbook

Eugenia Mandzhieva and Yulia Leontieva in Alexander McQueen Spring/Summer Ready-to-wear 2010 Lookbook

Each time I see a collection by Alexander McQueen, it always re-ignites that burning passion of mine for fashion. Right from the inside, I feel all the reasons of why I am ever interested in fashion. The Spring/Summer 2010 collection fits perfectly in the picture. Taking the theme of “Natural dis-tinction un-natural selection” to the extreme, Mr. McQueen visits a seemingly extraterrestrial territory and presents a supernatural collection that is strong and striking.

Bruuns Bazaar’s New Stars

Adrian Bosch and Anna Selezneva for Bruuns Bazaar Copenhagen Fall/Winter 2010/11 Ad Campaign

Bruuns Bazaar's new force for Fall 2010

Could this be true? Dansk Daily recently released a pic of Bruuns Bazaar’s Fall/Winter 2010/11 Ad campaign and guess what? Our favourite Bruuns Bazaar models – Carmen Kass and Mathias Lauridsen – are missing. I mean Carmen had been in the Danish label’s ad campaign since 2007 and Mathias since Fall 2008 (see here). Ever since then, these two had been inseparable as Bruuns Bazaar’s perfect couple. Well… On the one hand, we are missing this heaven made match, yet we are really enjoying this pic of Anna Selezneva with Adrian Bosch. Fresh and romantic, it captures morning beauty so extraordinarily! This could certainly be the commencement of a brand new spark and we certainly cannot wait to see more!

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

Chloé Spring Summer Ready to wear 2010 Collection Paris

Freja Beha Erichsen, Raquel Zimmermann and Magdalena Frackowiak in Chloé Spring/Summer 2010 Collection

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.

Pucci’s Nude Body

Emilio Pucci's asymmetric cutout lace-up nude swimsuit

Emilio Pucci's New Nude

Peter Dundas of Emilio Pucci crafted a new sexy curve in the stimulating shade of nude for Spring/Summer 2010. Watch out! Ready or not – here comes his stunning and striking asymmetric cut-out and lace-up swimsuit (USD $645)! Surely, there’s nothing more provocative than this skin-flashing skin-coloured piece. Namely, playing with the perplexing visual effect using those crafty means of his, it is revealing in that distinctively dangerous and delightfully daring way – bringing us excitement of a new height!

Zegna Sport – As We Want It & As We Like It!

Zegna Sport Spring/Summer 2010

Russian model Vladimir Ivanov in Zegna Sport Spring/Summer 2010 Collection

Sportswear was once a naughty word in fashion that nobody likes to even speak of. However, recently, with designers from all over the world coming up with all sorts of sportswear-inspired creative designs, Ermenegildo Zegna’s leisure line Zegna Sport, which specialised in the field since 1999, is certainly leading the pack with its high tech concepts and stylish and comfortable approach.

In Bed and In Love With Matvey Lykov

Dior Homme Spring/Summer 2010 Paris

Russian model Matvey Lykov closes the Dior Homme show.

Growing older and older each day, I no longer strive to put all the models with first names starting with the letter M in my list of favourite models. Yet, out of the blue, somehow it just happened: introducing a new favourite of mine this February is the fabulous Russian model Matvey Lykov. Ever since the day I watched the in bed with Matvey Lykov video - tweeted to me by a little bird from modelhommes, I just could not forget his mighty loveliness. Obviously, by and large, he is very good looking, but what charmed us sharply right through and swept us off both our feet is the fact that he speaks three and a half languages – Russian, English, Spanish and a little bit of Italian. Obviously, we share something common there. Let’s exchange numbers, Matvey and please teach me Spanish!

Alexis Mabille Spring/Summer Haute Couture 2010 Paris

Marlena Szoka, Maria Kashleva and Suzie Bird in Alexis Mabille Haute Couture 2010

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.
