Hump Day Couture
Tumblr - Just like any fashion-oriented human being - I love to stay up to date on the latest runway shows, designs & collections and especially posting and sharing them through social media with friends & followers!
Tumblr - Just like any fashion-oriented human being - I love to stay up to date on the latest runway shows, designs & collections and especially posting and sharing them through social media with friends & followers!
- Navigating and sifting through thousands of photos is basically what it can take until you have them organized enough to post!
- Finding your own personal favorite website, online magazine or app is key to getting up to date information quick & easy...because some girls can't afford subscriptions or don't have time maybe this isn't an option so #3 should help
- Everyone has facebook, twitter, instagram, or tumblr if not all of the above and more - therefore following influential designers, style.com, WWD & fashion bloggers can provide the quick and easy information or photographs that everyone is looking for on google! (the saga of sifting through the world of online fashion...)
- Ulyana Sergeenko Spring 2015 Couture:
- Guests attending were welcomed with the atmosphere of a Georgian banquet...
- Salon Le Bristol Hotel - Paris, France
- Couture Palette: Pomegranates, figs, cheese, wine or tea from a Russian samovar & the famous khachapuri, a sort of Georgian cheese focaccia
- Colorful Russian rugs that the designer had brought from her own home.
- “I wanted this to feel like a Georgian house, very personal and intimate,”
- - Ulyana Sergeenko
- The young couturier later stated 'that it didn’t feel right to host a runway show while Russia, her home country, was in economic turmoil.' - [Reviews ] "Two-thousand fourteen was such a good year for us. We were so proud, and then, at the end of the year, half of [our revenue] was gone. I still don’t understand why.”
-
Described as resembling Caucasian folklore as well as incorporating stunning embroideries in her looks; "bell-shaped silk gowns and corset dresses were as rich as the collagelike sets of Georgian film director Sergei Parajanov." - Took two months to apply the little beads to a lean navy-blue dress with a bolerolike top [which harked back to a 19th-century painting]
- The collection was undoubtedly retro, yet her structured feminine designs kept it modern.
- In one instance, Sergeenko applied the shape of Russian Orthodox - domed cathedrals to a long satin cape in baby pink [which she matched with a sober bustier dress]
- Remember: If you're new to the world of couture or even just online fashion and blogging, don't stress over it! It should be fun and relaxing - couture can sometimes be like the lady gaga of clothes but we love it anyways, the appreciation is learned.

Fall&Winter Styles 15'
Donatella has something that I couldn't even narrow down to a 4 piece collage, but the individual pictures were worth it because I couldn't have left them out and gotten the same point across!
After visitng the showroom in October - I've grown to love John Varvatos and his runway designs for F/W 15 are absolutely amazing!!
*2nd polka dot pattern of the season thus far
Stay Tuned - Feel Free to comment & review your thoughts or opinions of the collections as well! xoxo
FashionWeek-Fall/Winter 15'
Ended the last post with this collection & had to start the next with him as well because the love is unparalleled.
Versace's collection had me at hello - it was like those experiences where you start off highlighting one word and sooner or later the entire page is pink!
2015 Fall-Winter
More from Costume National...loving the velvet!
Coats designed to please the eye & the owner!
Disclaimer: These were the HARDEST choices that I had to make and I fell in love with the entire collection! The colors are so cozy and inviting and who wouldn't want to see more men donned with this art work?!?
- Definitely one of my personal Favorites
Fall&Winter
Some casual, some formal & some furry
Sucker for Taupes, tans, nudes and a fabb camel hair coat
Fall+Winter
The palette jumps out of these photos and the coats / jumpsuit are designed so feminine and sexy that anyone
would look good in them!
Flapper dress vibes as well as a major obsession with those wide-leg high waist pants!
Izabel Goulart ladies & gentlemen - oh and some pretty amazing runway looks that I would kill to own or wear for a day!
