" We don't eat during Fashion Week, we pretend to. " - Part 2

Part Two 

Marc-Antoine Barrois

These couturiers had an amazing collection, very very sleek pieces with sombre tones that upped the "glam" factor! Their oversized pieces were like a mash-up between Gucci's Spring '13 line and the Maison Martin Margiela x H&M collection , to die for! ( loving the shirt in the 6th picture! ) 

On Aura Tout Vu

FABULOUS CENTAURS. This collection was largely influenced by the love for transforming visions to visuals by the team and they did an amazing job with it. With huge flames, wild and hypnotic beats, along with a plethora of special effects, this show "stole the show" , even the press release gave me chills!                                      

     

     Once apon a time... a chimeric kingdom

Enchanted White, jewelled black, bright red exploded

Once apon a time...Queens

Of a flaming day, from magical past, from heroic future, with erupted beauty, which anarchic love, from oneric night,enigmatic rocker... Queen of our dreams

Once apon a time, On Aura Tout Vu

10 years, 20 collections.... an anniversary of fel en aiguille (from thread to needle)

 -The On Aura Tout Vu Press Release

One of the best shows, and a great end to Fide Fashion Weeks ! I think that this being held in Singapore, it has reiterated our place on the map as a true fashion haven. I really love how some of us really appreciated this occasion and attended it (even if not in full), and hats off to the fabulous Mr. Boey for putting together such an amazing event!

Till the next post, here's me sending all my readers some love! 

Lana x H&M

LANA x H&M

Its been no secret that the Queen of alternative pop music has clawed her way to clinch the spot of becoming the new face of H&M AW'12 collection. Sharp cheekbones, rosy cheeks, dreamy eyes and with a lip-pout to remember , Lana embodies regality and fits the mould better than any other.

H&M envisioned " a modern and feminine woman with a soft attitude" for their AW12 line and I feel like Lana did way more than to just put her face on their brand, she took it up and made it hers. Each shot, and each article of clothing is very much, Lana Del Rey. Soft cashmere and tweed tops harmonised with pleather bottoms, what more could effortlessly insinuate her influence ?

Her music, is amazing. She filled the market gap with something we didn't notice was missing. She was fresh, yet there was something unique and vintage to her album. As I listened to Born To Die, & her new album, Born To Die: Paradise Edition ( she's one of the few artists I'd personally wait in a queue for ) , her soft and archaic vocals imbibed these feelings( & chills) I never knew I inhibited and she introduced different perspectives in which, I now, view and judge myself and other people. A very talented person, not only in her music, but in fashion too! Word has it, she was offered 5 modelling contracts within a month of her music video release of Video Games too! Way to go, LDR!
