Haider Ackermann FW2012

(Click name above to view the show)
Haider Ackermann has given us an extraordinary tapestry of autumnal color
for Fall/Winter 2012.
This collection has everything a modern woman could want in her wardrobe, skirts. pants, tops, dresses, and coats. It's all about chic, elegant choices for fall. He has proven himself to be a master of the details through his use of proportion, shape, scale, and color. From the hint of motorcycle touches on the coats to the draping on the dresses. I found this collection to be a sumptuous adventure into "Fashion as Wearable Art" for Fall 2012.
Until next time, wishing you F,G, & E!!! ( Fashion, Glamour, & Excitement )

Alexander McQueen | Women's Autumn/Winter 2012 | Runway Show

This Show was amazing! Sarah Burton has truly come into her own at the helm of McQueen. It was all about the future of beauty for me. Modern, Sharp and Feminine but with the sense that it had been touched by an old world artisans hands.
It felt as if the silhouettes and fabrications evolved at a raid pace. Starting with short skirts with an exaggerated collared jackets in nubby jacquards. Then it began to change texture opening up into a laser-cut lace over leather. The nubby texture evolves again growing out into mongolian fur or ostrich feather as she explored various shapes on the theme. Finally exploding into strangely elegant layers of lightness in extreme layers of organza floating across the floor.
Truly Fashion as Art!!!
Until next time wishing you
F,G, &E!!!
