Spectacular is the only word that I can use to describe Fendi’s couture fashion show for Fall 2016. The brand celebrated its 90th anniversary with an amazing fashion show that took place literally on Fontana Di Trevi in Rome.
Gigi Hadid is the face of the new accessories campaign of Max Mara. It’s the second time that she collaborates with the brand as she was the face of last year’s campaign as well as she walked on Max Mara’s runway show.
Paris Fashion Week is already over and we saw many impressive collections. The most beautiful ones are undoubtedly these from Chanel, Elie Saab, Balmain and Sonia Rykiel. I also liked Martin Grant’s creations because of their feminine character and strict lines. I believe everybody enjoyed Zuhair Murad’s designs as there is nothing more chic than a black and white combination. However, if I could attend one show only, this would have been the one from Joie. This brand showed the most dreamy and lovely designs. I won’t babble any longer; take a look at some of the most interesting shows (in our opinion) below!!

Some of the biggest names of fashion such as Alessandro Michele and Miuccia Prada presented the trends for the Fall 2016 season, in their own unique way. The most impressive and complete collections were the ones by Gucci and Prada, as they were full of colour and brimming over with bold and directional uses of textures and patterns. Fashion’s rose-tinted glasses are out in full force in Milan. See the best designers’ looks on the photos below:

London Fashion Week is already over, and I can’t say I was impressed by most presentations. I think that LFW is my least favorite of all. I did find some favorites though, and here’s what I noticed about the whole LFW and what I liked about these particular collections. Most collections were way over-the-top, with too much layering, prints, and presentations that, in my opinion, took away from the designs. The ones I liked, were more minimal, and used beautiful colors (some of the times pastels too), mesh or lace. My hands down favorites were David Koma, Eudon Choi, Jasper Conran, and Xiao Li. You can see all the shows here. Let us know which one was your favorite designer for this season.
Well, the fashion month has already started, and NYFW has come to an end. Naturally we wanted to write a full report on it, and after spending hours looking at all the shows, and picking out the good from the bad, I’ve came up with 25(!) favorite collections from this season. I was glad to see that many designers incorporated spring into their fall collections, using bold and pastel colors on chunky knits, and coats. Gray and hats are still trends that are going strong to the next seasons as well, and that’s also something which find me in agreement, since I’m a fan of those trends. My usual favorites Victoria Beckham and Christian Siriano disappointed me a bit for this season, but I there were some other brands whose collections I really fancied, such as: Banana Republic, Bibhu Mohapatra, Escada, J.Crew, Kate Spade New York, Lela Rose and Polo Ralph Lauren. All in all it was a good Fashion Week, with the good and the bad. You can see all the shows here, and pick out your favorites!
