2007-03-26T07:19:00.001-07:00

Fashion and Style show March 23, 2007 Dark Angels. Alvin Valley's Fall collection was early aviatrix Harriet Quimby, who in 1911 became the first woman to receive a pilot's license. Hence, the show's emphasis on trousers. The wide-legged, corset-waist wool versions Valley paired with an acid-yellow bodysuit were most flattering, far more so than the derriere-flattening narrow-fit ones.Corsets were a dominant trend everywhere, whether amping up the sexy quotient of Monarchy designer Eric Kim's preppy-punk looks providing a streamlined silhouette for Kevan Hall's elegant gowns. His show also featured an aviation theme: "the urban jet set." Gliding down a runway painted with a landing strip, the models wore glittery jewel-tone dresses in silk chiffon, taffeta, satin, and tulle. The best of these, an obsidian-gray chiffon gown with chinchilla sleeves and a plunging neckline, evoked Audrey Hepburn or Grace Kelly, and earned Hall, whose fans included Garcelle Beauvais, Tisha Campbell, and Hayden Panettiere, one of the week's few standing ovations.

Hoods, patent leather, asymmetrical zippers, studs, and other hardware featured heavily, as did peace symbols, which grew progressively more prominent as the show went on, culminating in the massive one emblazoned across the final look, a floor-length, flowing white gown.In Tara Subkoff's Imitation of Christ homage to goth club kids, black lipstick, pale skin, and the aforementioned skeletal remains gave the collection an appropriately spooky aura. Her spangled minidresses and lace-over-velvet gown wowed Ione Skye, Elisha Cuthbert, and Ginnifer Goodwin.

The line encompasses both men's and women's looks, and though Browne has done custom work on a one-on-one basis for female clients hankering for his signature snug jackets and high-water pants, this is the first time he has created a full range of clothes for what the Brooks gent might once have referred to as the fairer sex. "I really had a good time with it," Browne said backstage of the new challenge. "I just want to do beautiful clothes for girls—great jackets, smart trousers, the things they say they want".

Fashion And Style/ Alberta Ferretti

2007-03-15T07:33:00.000-07:00

Fashion and Style show in Milan February 20th. Alberta Ferretti came out strong for the Fall Fashion 2007 collection. She'll never be a minimalist of course, so the small pea jacket that opened the show came with puff sleeves. While a V-neck dress had a flaring hourglass shape that shaded from dove gray at the bodice to chorcoal at the knee. Coats were potent too. One princess silhouette was decorated with a warm sunset print. Glossy leathers were studded, as is the trend this season. Ferretti is a designer who truly gets evening, satisfying both the desire for ornament and less glamorous.

The cocktail dresses were black taffeta bubble with sequin trim or the triple tiered plisse' mini with glittery dots.

2007-03-06T18:29:00.000-08:00

Fashion and Style show in Paris March 4, 2007. This show started out really simple . The first look out was a camel suit with a slightly nipped waist and rounded hips over a pleated knee length skirt worn with knee socks and pumps. Miuccia Prada then returned her attention to the natural synthetic dichotomy that informed her Prada show, with the accent falling heavily this time on the man made. In reality those A line coats were 100 percent real leather, but lined with neoprene to look spongy and fake. Prada had given everyone plenty to ponder on their long plane ride home after the show.

Fashion and Style/ Elie Saab/ Fashion

Fashion and Style show in Paris March 4, 2007.

Fashion and Style/ Gianfranco Ferre'/ Fashion

2007-02-25T11:34:00.000-08:00

Fashion and Style show in Milan Feb.23,2007. Gianfranco Ferre's presentation started promisingly, with aclean black and navy blue mens suits, the only feminine touches being the thin fastening trailing loosely from the lapels of jackets. From there though he reverted to glamour girl mode, turning out full sleeved, sahed kimono jackets in all manner of fabrications, cashmere, astrakhan, thats mens suiting fabric again. Followed by sporty luxe parkas, some trimmed in for the layering on and embellishments reached a crescendo with a series of precious puffer vests in gold or silver, lined in fur. His evening numbers were more stream lined, but no less dramatic most of them were constructed from stiff metallics. Silk so thickly creased it almost resembles Chinese lantern paper, as hi program explained, made for difficult going when the dresses descended to the floor. It took a real diva like skin, the singer who closed his show and was scheduled to perform at his after party, to pull off the look.. The material worked better cut boxy and above the knee. But not half as well, it must be said, as those pantsuits at the shows beginning. It would've been interesting to see Ferre' go with his first instincts.

Fashion and Style/ Missoni/ Fashion

2007-02-25T09:58:00.000-08:00

Fashion and Style show in Milan Feb. 22, 2007. Fashion designer Missoni incorporated both the look of the forties and the seventies. Angela Missoni came out on the right side of the line, even if she did use the familiar devices of Rita Hayworths hair, Marlene Dietrichs tip tilted hat, and the inevitable Bowie soundtrack. But whats the distinction between Missoni cape sleeved printed dresses, big shouldered furs, balloon sleeves, tailored flares, Deco jerseys and everyone else? It's largely of deft wielding of the hard to handle dusty seventies palette. Exact choices of maroon, brown, beige, mustard, dusty pink, and petrol blue marked Missoni best in class in Milan.

Fashion and Style/ Luisa Beccaria/ Fashion

2007-02-25T08:49:00.000-08:00

Fashion and Style show in Milan Feb. 23, 2007. Luisa Beccaria's youngest daughter Luna wore a golden brocade shift. And her oldest daughter, Lucilla came out with her for her bow.. It is with Lucillas input that Baccaria started moving the always feminine occasionally frothy, collection in a younger direction, refining her understanding of what the party set she caters to really wants to wear now. This season the Baccaria look spanned black silk velvets. Punctuated with ivory frills, forties frocks with puffed shoulders, bow fronts and flippy hems in an arabesque- pink silk or silvered lace. Sixties bracelet - sleeved A - line coats, and a fair amount of fushia pink. In fushia, a short strapless satin dress worked better than a ruched cocktail number in silk velvet.

Fashion and style/ Versace/ Fashion Show

2007-02-24T18:44:00.000-08:00

Fashion and Style Versace in Milan Feb. 23, 2007. Donatella Versace was the first person to find a good name for the elusive chemical bright turquoise that has shot through the best collections of Milan. She called it litmus paper blue. Her use of it was spot on as was a startling red and a single bolt of sulphuric green, as well as chic, contrasts of black, camel, and white bold color innovation combined with a pared down super precise shape can make a collection jump this season. Donatella Versace has stripped off the gold medusa heads, canned the scarf prints, and set set about cutting a strong feminine silhouette. Its about a bell shape. Controlled volume. Black and white and color to put the life in. She said" The bell is actually a kind of molded hour glass, emphasizing the waist and hips, but constructed in a demi- couture manner, that avoids constricting vulgarity. Versace used it in techno fabric dresses, jackets, and tailored coats, and in one amazing dyed red fox that had been shaved into that shape in the mid section.

Fashion and Style/ Blumarine/ Fashion Show

2007-02-24T18:17:00.000-08:00

Fashion Blumarine, Milan Fashion show Feb. 23, 2007.

Molinari keyed into both the seasons must have neutral gray, a short sleeved chinchilla jacket, cropped, belted, and worn with shinny pants, was the high light and the color trend. A pair of fitted day sheaths came in one of Milans loveliest brocades. A lush, painterly floral in shades of pink and red on a dark base. An emerald green Duchesse satin bomber with matching pencil skirt was strong too. Molinari clearly prefers to have fun with fashion.

Now thats Fashion and Style.

2007-02-23T19:44:00.000-08:00

Fashion and Style show in Milan Feb. 22, 2007. Daks by Giles Deacon. Given the heritage of the brand , the obvious way to set about creating updated business attire is to work on tailoring, or at least day wear necessities for high achievers. Deacon came up with a precise, wasp - waisted silhouette with a rounded hip, achieved through boning and a tie on pad device that goes beneath the coat and jacket. There were well executed dresses also pierced in matte shine, velvet, wool, and duchesse satin. The show swiftly drifted off into fashion Y statements, more fit for extreme magazine shoots than any recognizable business agenda. This involved transplanting some of the vast cable knit pieces and geometric satin patch works seen in Deacons own collection.

Fashion and Style/ Fashion shows/ Alessandro Dell 'Acqua

2007-02-23T19:09:00.000-08:00

Milan Feb. 22, 2007. The Fashion and Style.. The show opened with a neoprene parks lined in long haired fur that suggested he was about to take off in a sporty new direction. But that was not all Dell 'Acqua also had a remix of last seasons metallics, which were draped into a goddess mini dress, and a dash of futurism, in the form of space age silver quilting. Also the designers signature lingerie stylings. Cocktail numbers were spliced with or veiled with nude chiffon. The most successful pieces were the simplest. Such as a cocooning gray coat embellished only with elbow patches. Now this was some fashion show.
