High voltage Versace

Written by Tania Braukämper.

Mert & Marcus photographed the campaign.

The name Versace carries certain expectations. Svelte figures and ultra-high heels, the kind you might not like to teeter on the edge of a swimming pool in; strategic displays of skin be it a thigh high slit or aplunging neckline, potentially even a high voltage combination of both; prints and textures that demand attention just as the hemlines do.

In a haze of blue heat, Gisele Bundchen is Versace’s spring 2012 muse. And she covers off on all of the above.

Wildfox, Wild West

Written by Tania Braukämper.
"Wildfox’s spring 2012 look book brings us gun-slinging cowgirls in the dusty, wind-blown surroundings of the West; but it’s a modern take, where hooped skirts are worn with cropped tees, and pistols are as long as platform shoes are tall.

While the black coaches, veils and dramatic photography by Emir Eralp are a little True Grit, it’s Brigitte Bardot in Shalako that springs to mind as the vintage inspiration behind the ruffled petticoats and bed hair."... -visit www.fashionising.com to view the article.

Seventies done right

Written by Daniel P Dykes.
"We’re in a period of two-way fashion where current fashion trends are a mix of the future as it might be and a romantic interpretation of the way fashion once was. This isn’t something unique to our generations however – society loves to romanticise, and history is littered with eras where our ancestors looked backwards while stepping forwards.

The current dominance of all things 20th Century sees 2012 shape up as a year in which everything from 1920s fashion to that of the 70s will influence the way we piece together our wardrobes, and it’ll be that way for both men and women. Yet the genders are divided not solely by what is worn, but how also its worn – while men and women will share similar motifs in the coming years, womens’ interpretations will tend towards the ‘costume.’ Or put another way, more often than not they’ll be literal interpretations that give the wearer the air of someone who has just stepped forth from Wells’ time machine by way of a decade from last century." - fashionising.com

The beach and young Bardot: vintage inspiration

written by Tania Braukämper

...."The outfit has a peasant-like, almost Esmerelda gypsy quality to it. But on Bardot it’s completely perfect for the seaside climate of Cannes, where she was photographed in 1955 by Kary Lasch."

Loup Charmant: ancient memories & exotic appeal

written by Tania Braukämper

"Loup Charmant’s spring 2012 look book has an appeal both ancient and exotic. It conjures up the scent of palm leaves and sand and the humidity of balmy summer nights away from home. The brand’s own description says it best in the quote above – an ancient memory of a world we once knew."....

Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds.

Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves.

The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand.

It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.

-- Carl Sagan, Pale Blue Dot, 1994

I need to get this.

"Life: The Great Challenge" is, according to Guinness, the world's largest commercial puzzle -- and according to us, it's also the world's ugliest. A vivid composite of balloons, clownfish, yachts, and planets, the illustration is one that could charitably be called "nightmarish," which is also a good way to describe its difficulty. Boasting a terrifying 24,000 pieces bursting with bright colors, when completed -- if completed -- it'll be over 14 feet long. We hope you have a large table, plenty of patience, and lots of spare time. Buy now

"Catering to a young audience, the Versace for H&M collection rages with mini-hemmed party dresses. There’s ornate patterns in shiny sequins, studded leather, bright tropical palm prints. What you won’t find – much to the dismay of the true Versace fan – are any floor-length, thigh slit gowns. Perhaps they’re reserved for the fully-fledged Versace woman." - via fashionising.com

very cool....

Burberry's message of quality

"When it comes to building a curated wardrobe we recommend that its pieces are made up of a mix of high-to-low cost items. While luxury always has a lustre, it is never solely about a price tag. However, it is about quality. Luxury fashion is always quality fashion, yet somewhere along the way the vast majority of us forgot this. We forwent an understanding of what truly makes for quality and instead relied upon the price tag and label alike to communicate the craftsmanship of an item. Yet as many of us have slowly come to realise, price tag and label can be an illusion." ........
