Rag & Bone’s Dramatic Fashion Campaign

    I was entertained by Rag & Bone’s dramatic fashion campaign for their spring collection. Featuring a young model named Abby Lee, the fashion house created the campaign entitled “A Saga of Hope, Drama, and Miniskirts” which was narrated by Simon Doonan.

    It's short story of a young model in the midst of a career crisis. Here goes the story:

    “I’m in desperate need of a new career”


    “Quantum physics has always turned me on. On the other hand...”


    “If I were a hired assassin I would be able to make my own hours...”


    “Code-breaking is hot… but...”


    “Being a ruthless mercenary is probably more me.”


    “A sneaky double-agent?”


    “A sassy saboteur?”


    “Or I could just stick with modeling and laugh all the way to the bank...”

Spice Girls In Their Cavalli Costumes


    We have already read it in newspapers, fashion magazines, and blogs: Roberto Cavalli will create costumes for Spice Girls in their much-awaited worldwide tour “The return of the Spice Girls”.

    Last December 2, the Fab 5 hit the stage with Cavalli creations. According to some fashion guru, Cavalli has unmistakable signature to each spicy outfit, which will define their individuality and highlight the glamorous image that has characterized the band.

    Among the highlights, the five women - Emma Bunton, Geri Halliwell, Melanie B, Melanie C and Victoria Beckham- wore creations that include white and black tuxedos, shiny minidresses embroidered with Swarovsky crystals and feathers, leather corsets and neon colored jumpsuits.

The Perfect Fit....for every shape

    Flare has found wearable runway looks for every shape. You don't need to wander wondering what clothes to wear. Check this out...

    For Petite:

    Fashion finds
    1. Silk top, $90, Banana Republic.
    2. Leather belt, $315, Suzi Roher.
    3. Cotton/polyester-blend dress, $128, Kensie, The Bay.
    4. Pleather bag, $85, High Fashion Handbags.
    5. Sequined skirt, $165, Banana Republic.
    6. Nylon/spandex leggings, $175, Norma Kamali for Everlast, The Bay.
    7. Leather shoes, $580, Davis by Ruthie Davis.

    Style tips:
    ● Voluminous shapes can overwhelm petite frames. Cinching the waist controls the volume.
    ● Hemlines should be long or mini—anything between shortens the leg.
    ● A monochromatic head-to-toe look creates the illusion of a taller body.
    ● Sharply tailored pieces and short dresses are no-fail basics..

    For Tall and Lean:

    Fashion Finds
    1. Acrylic/wool-blend coat, $199, Mango.
    2. Glass brooch, $380, Isaac Manevitz for Ben-Amun.
    3. Patent-leather booties, $640, Davis by Ruthie Davis.

    6. Wool/lycra-blend skirt, $240, Rebecca Taylor.
    7. Stretch-Georgette dress, $525, Castle Starr.

    Style tips:
    ● Don’t try to hide your height. Stand tall.
    ● Experiment with different lengths. Short doesn’t always mean better.
    ● Play with proportion, such as a voluminous jacket over a skinny pant.
    ● Prints and texture add dimension to any look.

    For Pregnant Women:

    Fashion Finds
    1. Pleather bag, $69, Mexx.
    2. Wool/alpaca-blend coat, $555, Rebecca Taylor.
    3. Polyamide dress, $40, H&M.
    4. Patent-PVC shoes, $135, Nine West.
    5. Silk dress, $1,495, Jeremy Laing.
    6. Malachite necklace, $630, Alexis Bittar.

    Style tips:
    ● Avoid overly tailored styles that bind and constrict.
    ● Accessories can jazz up the plainest of dresses.
    ● Mimic an empire waist with a skinny belt.
    ● Stay away from loud prints or stripes that draw attention to the tummy.
    ● Opt for ankle booties or T-strap pumps with a slightly lower heel—chic but comfortable.

    For Curvy:

    Fashion Finds
    1. Polyester/spandex satin blouse, $60, Bedo.
    2. Polyester belt, $25, Aldo.
    3. Wool/polyester dress, $275, Firetrap.
    4. Crystal earrings, $40, Winners.
    5. Wool flannel jacket, $195, Banana Republic.
    6. Leather shoes, $250, Aldo.

    Style Tips:
    ● Don’t try to hide or conceal your assets; instead, choose body-skimming pieces.
    ● Waist-cinching belts define your shape even more.
    ● Tailored styles, such as fitted shirts and pencil skirts, accentuate your curves.
    ● Avoid loud graphic or floral prints and opt for small and playful patterns instead.

October Trends 1: Fuzzy Logic

    When I thought that Fuzzy Logic are only for programmers and engineers, then I was wrong. Visiting Elle's website, I learned that it can also be used in the glamorous fashion world.

    Fuzzy Logic - Fabrics are going soft and luxe for winter, with angora, mohair, and alpaca cropping up in fabulously fun colors.


    1. Hat by D&G
    2. Mohair Alpaca Skirt by Jean Paul Gaultier
    3. Wool-Blend Wide-Leg Shorts by Marc Jacobs
    4. Angora Fur Sweater by Louis Vuitton
    5. Mohair Jacket by Chriz Benz
    6. Wool Mohair Clutch by Prada

    *These fashion trend will be impossible for me. We don't have winter here in the Philippines. I'm wondering, when will I see snowflakes and wear mohairs? LOLSource URL: https://itistheforkhead.blogspot.com/search/label/Skirts

Wearable Fashion Trends 18: A Skirting Way

It's a garment with many moods; the knee-length is perennially practical, the midi is easy and carefree while the mini is bold and brave. Check out the new season's skirt shapes with net-a-porter's tips on how we should wear them...
