Just cant get enough: MIU MIU



 Paris, Spring SS11 Collection,  Rock and roll inspired

Miuccia Prada: "I was thinking about everybody's obsession with being famous."
Boxy big shoulder leathers and silk dresses, models prancing down the red wooden catwalk.






















This is some of my collection of miu miu, i love miu miu style, my favorite collection is spring 2010 with the Lolita dresses and cute animal prints, Miu Miu is for the playful youthful fashion, and has many celebrity admirers.  i love the print and colours of the collections. These are advertisement campaigns that  i liked and photographs. i could add more, i know i could look at this label all day and lust over!

Paris fashion week

Celine



Celine SS11 showed in Paris, minimalistic chic, neutral colours with bold coloured outfits, i love the raw woven jackets, this collection is fresh and new, clean cut with great details, raw high end couture.


A highly influential brand,  which is sophisticated in its own right, i think celine are just going to get bigger and bigger, as i think the market is looking for more clean cut, well designed items.

The collection was mainly white and cream with the added use of colour,   i liked the brown leathers looked like 70s inspired furniture, with the bright blue really sets it off and the clean cut smoothness was a nice contrast with the raw cream jackets.






Nina Ricci

Nina Ricci collection had some nice elements, i like the prints, and the bursts of statement colours. i liked the collars on the jackets, open and curvey.





 the bagged up shorts are great, although a shape seen often but they are wearable. i like the tucked in waist with the volumuness pleats of the tops and shorts.





Cacheral





Cacharel had bright colours, catwalk lit in bright orange, like blazing sun, acidic floral prints and great pop colours i love the dresses with the pleats and manipulation.  i thought it was a very strong collection with lots of daring colour. the orange catwalk is a bit off putting though..


 Sonia Rykiel


Sonia Rykiel Spring 2011 ready to wear collection included beautiful light weight knits with some great colour ways.  Lots of bright colour blocking, prints and tassels. I loved the shapes of the boxy and figure hugging hour glass shapes set into the outfits. The shapes created within the outfit to give a sillhouette gave a contrast to the bagginess of the outfit.

Newyork Fashion Week

Philip Lim

Philp Lim. The outfits bellow are my favorite from the collection. i particularly like the nude with the blue it compliments each other really well, unexpected camel and bright blue,  and cute small colours, i would wear! I love the geometric shapes of the skirts and angles of the fabric on the coats,  and the dress with the polka dot sleeves and bronze trim has amazing texture.  I like the neutral colour pallette with the bursts of blue!





Araks Spring 2011 ready to wear collection; most of the collection was not to my taste, the images above are of the outfits i quite liked, the tone of oranges, textures and shape of the dress was something a bit different and eyecatching,  i thought the blazer, knitted cardi and shorts where cute, im a big fan of wearing all one colour, especially greys!  I like the dress as its quite long and with it being sheer it is updated, with the yellow underwear peeking through i think it looks great.






Christian Cota.   i have pulled out the looks i liked from the collection, i like the subtle colours and the mix of sheer fabrics, cropped at different angles, the first dress is a clever shape.





Helmut Lang. I really like Helmut Langs collection  i love the colours and the sophisticated  chic silhouttes of the long skirts and beautifully draped casual fabrics.
