FROM ANGEL, TO DEMON

Kylie Bisutti who rose to fame, due to her winnings at the 'Victoria's Secret Model Search' in 2009, has recently blasted the brand, stating it treated her "like a piece of meat". She claims, that the brand conflicts with her strong Christian beliefs, "My body should only be for my husband and it's just a sacred thing." She currently designs Christian clothing, which she states is "modest clothing".


She certainly looks respectable as a Christian here.

SPRING/SUMMER 13 TRENDS

For spring/summer, pay close attention to Eastern influences, monochrome, clashing prints and metallics. These are the key trends to looking the most stylish and your best, this summer. 

Prada showed looks with heavy influences of Eastern styling, in the forms of towering geisha shoes (with metallic materials) and simple florals. The designs looked elegant and rather wearable, a key trend this summer.

CHALAYAN F/W 13

This is probably the best show of the whole season, the dresses are very unique and like nothing I've ever seen before. The collection is actually wearable which is great! The first look had the mode wearing a simple turtle-neck coat with over-sized pants, with the bottom rolled up. 


I do like the top of this look, it looks very simple which is 100% my style. The pants are...not.

BALENCIAGA F/W 13

After the final show of Nicolas Ghesquière for Balenciaga, Alexander Wang was named the brand's latest creative director. The rather short collection showcased modern cocoon jackets, which featured cracked paint design - seen on various teasers. The first look had the model wearing a  cocoon coat with fur sleeves and collars. She also wore fitted black pants with simple boots. She looked very modern, with her minimal ensemble.


I like the simple colours used, which makes the look timeless. I also like the coat, which is modern and simple.

GUY LAROCHE F/W 13

Paris is here! (Although I know it was months ago) Today's review is Guy Laroche, I loved this collection with the use of leather and bright colours, to the furs with bondage accents. The first look had the model wearing a a zipped dress with with leather detailing on the chest. She wore a suede coat with fur lining, all matching in tones of navy blue. The next model also wore a similar look, she wore a softer dress, with a suede coat and simple court heels.

I like this whole outfit, I adore the modernity of the top!

DOLCE & GABBANA F/W 13

The boys are at it again, creating beautiful ensembles with the use of luxurious gold accessories and mosaic prints. The designs are always innovative and different, never following the latest trends. With the sombre intro coming to an end, the first model appeared in a beautiful mosaic gown, the piece had jewels embellished onto the gown. She was adorned with over-sized earrings and a beautiful crown.


The outfit is 100% eye-catching, however it isn't wearable. I love the crown with large earrings.

VERSACE F/W 13

Donatella Versace created 'VUNK' this season - Versace Punk. A very big trend at Paris and Milan Fashion Week. The collection featured heavy use of leather, latex and strong accessories. The show began with models Daria Strokous and Kasia Struss opening the show, wearing black and white leather leotards with over-sized coats. The girls were finished with edgy boots and spiked earrings. 


The girls looked very strong and sexy, opening the show to 'Pleasure Moon'.

Arriving to prom in a bespoke tuxedo is among my many dreams, and it's very soon. That means, exercise! After buying my Nike Free Run shoes, the innate thing is to buy a matching outfit. I travelled to London earlier this week (see the outfit here), where I bought some running pants from H&M and shorts from Adidas. Check them out below:

MINIMAL SPORT


Hey everyone, how are you all doing? The weather is still pretty cold in London and that means its time to throw on the layers. Today I just wanted to have lunch with my sister in London, so whilst we went, we picked up a few items too. I needed a couple of clothes for my exercise plans in the summer and I'm glad I have them all now. 

I wanted to show the transition in my fashion and begin to slowly move to monochromatic clothes, and I feel like I'm slowly getting there. Keep following my blog and keep up with posts to follow this transition with me. See you in the next post~!

THE DEATH OF FASHION

Through the use of media and strongly opinionated writers, the fashion industry is depicted as frivolous and harmful to society. A large number of people believe that fashion harms the minds of young girls because they have to live with the 'super' appearance of models seen on TV commercials and magazines. Karlie Kloss for instance, on the March cover of Vogue Korea, she looks skinnier than the average woman. They believe that the industry encourages an 'unrealistic' look in regards to their own bodies and their own looks.

BLUMARINE F/W 13

Anna Molinari showcased another very beautiful collection this fall with heavy usage of coloured leathers and sheep's fur. The overall collection had a fun and sophisticated aura to it. The first look had the model wearing a light pink/peach ensemble with a suede jacket with sheep accents and leather pants. 


I love it! The colour choice is sexy and the items look super sophisticated.
