Fendi F/W 2014 Show

Moschino 2014 Fall-Winter Fashion Show

March 8, 2014

 

Staccato advised me to check out the Moschino show. I did and let me tell you, when I heard it was inspired by McDonalds I was not expecting to like it. Well I eat all my words, I loved the show! There was way more to it than a McDonald's inspiration and the clothing was cute.  Here are a few of my favorite looks.

I Have Found My Soulmate in Burberry

February 17, 2014

 

What can I say about the 2014 Burberry A/W Women’s Fashion Show? It blew my mind, was awesome, filled me with indescribable emotion, made my day, made my year, made me wish I had a job so I could go shopping right this moment even though it is snowing and cold in Chicago (and quickly turning into a blizzard as I type this, yet I would put on my fur coat and boots and skip to Burberry in a heartbeat)…I could go on for days. The show was downright dreamy. It began with a lighter color pallet than usual (sand, beige, dusty rose, lilac, palatinate blue, and green)…and floral prints. Then the color pallet darkened to a rich chocolate brown, navy, and burgundy. There were splashes of yellow throughout. They call the main color inspirations cameo pink, bright olive, and elderberry…we won’t argue over semantics (aka the names of colors).

 

There were hip-high splits, belted coats (of course), hand painted drawings on everything, and scarves galore. The see-through lace trend continued but was lessened. As usual the live music was awesome and makes the Burberry show stand out from the crowd. The consistency of having a Paloma song is smart, if it ain’t broken don’t fix it. She did a fabulous job and had our hearts in our throats with her gut wrenching Only Love Can Hurt Like This. Burberry says their inspiration was the British Bloomsbury set of artists and writers at Charleston, including Vanessa Bell and Virginia Woolf. That could explain the air of dreaminess and fantasy that the collection had…or it could be due to the constant zooming in on Bradley Cooper’s face throughout the show (I can’t say for sure, probably both). Ultimately, the star of this show were the prints; they were heavenly. I’ve also been waiting for my dream purse to arrive, this could be the collection that provides it (waiting with bated breath to see the bags that come out of this inspiration). Can’t wait to see more.
