Donna Karan brings back the trends that she first help create in the 80s, mainly draping and exaggerated shoulders. It’s a collection that you could imagine the designer wearing herself, and that is something that makes me love the collection even more. The main highlights were statement jewellery, fierce shoes, draping, shoulders, studs and belts. [...]

Inspiration: Model Street Style

When it comes to model street style, i think it’s something that you either find incredibly interesting or very boring. Those who fall into the second category often point out that model’s just wear what they get given, they always wear dark colours, and their style is just boring in general. However im sure those [...]

The sheer trend has actually been around for quite a while now, and it’s interesting to see that sheer pieces were still present in many S/S 09 Collections. The difference being that last year the fabrics were completely transparent, whereas now there seems to be a move towards layers and the use of alternative fabrics [...]
