Im on this case

Chanel's Perspex Briefcase? Yeah, seen it? No? Here.


Isn't it gorgeous, I think it's easily do-able with a laser cutter machine and a good size perspex with a vacuum machine, it's do-able, just time and effort are needed, I am going to keep you guys on this one because it has potential. 

London Fashion Week

The hype was amazing, everyones an inspiration and it's just fantastic to see upcoming designers release their work such a plethora of daily events and freebies! Check WFURL (Link in sidebar) for all my reviews.

Sorry I haven't got into this system of this again, I will be starting up again slowly but over the break period look what I got upto, a bit of GERLAN, YES, It's done after so much annoyance, its done and I LOVE IT
CHEQ IT!

Dora Mojzes

Hungarian designer, fresh on the scene with undoubted talent, showcases her look-book on the fashion site: NOT JUST A LABEL, the talent really emulates through her work. She says that her work is all about femininity and encompasses the 21st century woman. She's a very dimensional character showcasing that she has plenty of talent. Take a look.

Prosperous 2010

All the best to you all, make the most of what we have remember...

Just a quickie though... sorry to go on a tangent, when was it okay to take something alot of guys like myself have been doing for agess and make it commercial and now socially "acceptable" just because a high street retailer now offers them to the consumer...

You tell me!!??!

This isn't like me to be a movie fanatic, I mean Lord of the Rings was amazing, Gandalf the White all the way with Shadowfax (Im a dork), but last night I got dolled up to go see Avatar 3D, I had no expectations, I hadn't seen the trailer so I had no idea what was coming, lo behold, the film was honestly I can say the best film I have ever seen, it was so realistic, the special FX were fantastic and it was just so surreal and pretty, I wish it were real, I dont want to give too much away but I would 1000000000% reccomend, I am a convert Im a X-Men type of guy well, I used to be. Now I am an avatar :D

Er Hello Mr. Butler

Looks familiar eh, I saw this guy at Fashion Week. Fred Butler with his Hibiscus Ridiculous SS10 collection, just fab, nailed whatever concept was at hand, I'd love to just get my func on and stroll down real casual down oxford circus. Skrew that, grace you with my precence down your streeet wearing this fabuloso. I hate comparing things to Lady GaGa but here is so apt.

Guilty Pleasure

Who's That Girl

This girl, now dating back fashion week, I was looking over my pictures and she really was amazing.

Her lilac soufflé style hair, metal brace necklace with lots of beads and charms attached, then a chic black and blue outfit, dramatic makeup. She stole the show, we were waiting for Falguni Shane and Peacock and it was so hot in that room! She definitely was the attraction.

Progress on my "Beyonce/Gerlan Jeans" Top, I have started the bottom. A picture tutorial will commence once done.

No denying style/attitude

Rihanna: I am coming round to her, I love her style she clearly knows my type of fashion, she isn't up to everyones scratch but she is for me and she so fits in on this page.. Her new video Hard, directed by Melina Matsoukas (worked with Beyonce and Lady Gaga before) leads her through an army style video in outrageous fashion which is so up my street.

Apologies for the poor quality.

Hard

Schedules

The schedule was released yesterday evening, its now time for you to get going, if your press, buyer or in the industry through any other means, get applying for your invitations via each designer.
The schedule looks great and fingers crossed I am able to get an invite to a few, looking for purchases and some coverage for WestFashion!!

SCREAM

I found where Beyonce aquired that sequined alien top/dress !!!!! Gerlan Jeans from the 2009 winter collection, I am seriously contemplating making a purchase!

How It Went...

Erdem was fabtasculous yes hybrid word, deserves it, the venue was fantastic, the layout was to a perfect T, I was very impressed.

One designer I'd never looked into, kinda ambiguous to me, but come to realize it his work is very perfectionist and the fine details are very important, his seam work is professional and expert. There were many pieces that were simply breathtaking, alot of the work was floral, victorian or had a vintage feel to them which I loved.

V&A as the venue was fantastic, as a fashion devotee, I never had checked this museuem and come to realise that there was a whole fashion exhibition, well thats a whole separate post. Check the link below for video footage, images coming soon to a seamless slideshow for ease of viewing

The Final Show Video

Erdem

Tomorrow, big post on the pieces he chooses to show, also introducing outfit post.

Keep checking

This is me all over

Potential

Loop stitching is something I have never considered, but after seeing this it makes me want to take wide sections of grey material pinched and sewn on like THIS. How to coming soon. Loop stitch is becoming increasingly popular, it would take time but it'd be worthwhile.

Lady Ga-reth Pugh-Ga

She's becoming a strong icon and I've loved her from the beginning, if you know her fashion taste it strongly lies with Gareth Pugh, she's a very talented and smart lady and I am a massive massive fan of hers, she took my breath earlier when she was wearing Gareth Pugh's 2007 RTW collection arms with her own style dress, it looked amazing.

DIY: Shoulder FAD

Yes, they are everywhere, but I kinda had to take it too far. Another DIY. 

1. Measure over shoulder meeting the tape measure at desired point 

2. Measure the dimensions on your desired fabric, I chose PVC for the Gareth Pugh touch.

3. Take a ruler and measure from corner to centre of the section to acquire two triangular pieces.

4.  Sew evenly and complete.

Browsing

I've been hunting around Topshop and I've come across these, which I laid eyes on back at Fashion Week, this gorgeous blonde model with finger tousled hair a plain black shift dress and this type of shoe, hers were Chanel I believe but these simply are breathtaking, Aggie Boots.

Hefty price tag, found very similar off eBay (Shhh) :)

Beyonce's Top

  I need an expert to find this top, I've searched everywhere, its hot, wonder the price lol? Im guessing £200. Shock me please, if you do find it then let me know in the comments. It kind of reminds me of theDolce and Gabbana top Katy Perry wore with the sequin ship.
