Artsy Escape: Monique Lhuillier Resort 2013

Monique Lhuillier resort  2013 collection screams prints and color galore and I love it. The feminine colors and the quirky silhouettes added an artsy feel to each garment. Neon colors, fuchsia, lime green, bright orange and yellow were instilled in almost every piece to create the perfect palette for an exotic getaway. In the words of Lhuillier "I toughened up my offering with a not-so-pretty silhouettes and quirky twists".

Showstopping: Marchesa Resort 2012

I'm dying over the Merchesa Resort 2012 collections. Designers Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig created what I call Goddess on clouds, due to all the floaty and airy designs. I want it all.

All Aboard Chanel Airlines

I can't get enough of the Chanel fashion shows. I love the dramatic antic. For his spring 2012 Chanel Haute Couture show, Karl Largerfeld decided a Chanel plane was the venue to display his art. The collection was made of 150 shades of blue. When asked why the color choice Largerfeld didn't have any specific reason, but he stated "I don't have the blues".

Make sure to view the attached video for wonderful details and movements of the designs.  Also are some pictures of my favorite looks .

Feast your eyes on this: CHANEL Paris-Bombay Métiers d'Art 2011/12

I'm so excited Fashion Week starts next week and I can't stop watching fashion videos. I came across the Chanel Paris-Bombay show, which debuted in Paris last month at the Grand Palais. Every piece set my senses off,  sight, smell, taste and feel.  What a magnificent display. Whats more amazing is that Karl Lagerfeld has never been to India, after the show he stated, "it is much more inspiring not to got to places then to go."

Here's a a trailer from the show and a few of my favorite looks.

The pearls on the dress, everything I need

And the Award goes to Gucci

Last night was the 2012 Golden Globe awards. As glamorous as the actors looked in their ensemble I usually pay attention to the designers behind the gowns. My  award for designer of the evening goes to Gucci. The majority of the dresses came from the Gucci Première collection, which fabrics and construction behind each piece are just mind blowing. These are my crème de la crème...

Sleek and sexy, Evan Rachel wood took a refreshing plunge in this scaled mermaid look,  pulled off with sequins and feathers...all my favorite things. This midnight green dress is embroidered with overlapping fish scale paillettes and ostrich plumes, flowing into a full skirt of iridescent feathers.

Jessica Alba looked sweet in this pale lilac silk charmeuse dress. This gown features crystal encrusted organza petals, light crystal drops and a high-waisted sash that drapes into a pleated train. 

Salma Hayek-Pinault my bestie of the evening wore a two piece. A graphic bustier embroidered with antique gold and silver bugle beads, thin beaded black belt and a fully embroidered liquid skirt of vertical lines of glass bead. Wow!


XOXO!
