Marchesa: Trust Me

Marchesa (of the intense mood board) sent out an incredibleeeee collection this season. Although, I read that the models were fainting from the intense light and pencil thin heels :(
Despite the poor models, the collection was amazing.

 The look above was my favorite. Gah!

Marchesa

Soooo...we all need moods, yes? Designers and trend forecasters channel images to illustrate their vision via mood boards for each project. Seems strange, but it really sets the tone. This is one of the most tricked out I've seen so far, it is from Marchesa for their current collection:

I can just imagine 4 interns hovering over this thing. Thanks Vain and Vapid for this, see more boards here!

Friday Night Skate

Here's a fave look from Elise Øverland (god I wish I had that symbol in my name). Give me more FACE model!! I never got over those Prada furs from a million years ago so this is a little revival. I love the big fake cotton candy hue. Just stay away from the gorilla armed jackets that are all over the runway this season. You're better than that.

Øverland's show was set on an ice rink as you can see. As a kid in Shaker Heights, we had an event called Friday Night Skate every week. It was HUGE in 5th and 6th grade, and pretty socially intense. Everyone would just skate around in a circle and want to talk to That Popular Guy.

Give Me Som

Normally I don't go for Peter Som. His looks are far too mature for me and predictable. But with the lack of good shows to surf on Style.com I clicked. And I liked. Maybe it was because of the NYT's Cathy Horyn's accolades but Som had some definite winners. LOVE that grey coat.
