Top 5 Trends of Summer `09


1. Feathers: Considering eco-friendly is familiarizing itself with the runways why not channel this Nina Ricci, boho inspired look by ditching the animal print (as much as I love it... cue my leopard wardrobe) and embracing the Woodstock generation from Spring into Autumn `09.


2. Bondage, sex and Rock and Roll: Ahh yes, Herve Ledger really had something going for him when he created that ever so popular bandage dress. This doesn`t mean buttless chaps ladies and gents, Think Dsquared meets Marilyn Manson at a Rhianna concert while
partying with Sid Vicious.

3. The infamous one shoulder. We seen it in the late 90`s early 2000`s in many don`t forms, but those such as Zac Posen have returned it with class in a beautiful architectural, classy form.

4. Cutaways: `08 Brought Romantic lace and chiffon fabrics, a rather lady-like effort in baring a bit of skin (trust me I bought my share of chiffon dresses from Korea last year.) However for `09 and `10 we`re seeing much more of an edgy take on modernity mixed with rock and roll, channel your inner Jim Morrison ladies. Haute and not Hoochie.

Bold
5. After the Goldrush: Last but not least something Donna Summers would appreciate Marchesa so much for. GOLD, whats better than letting the summer sunshine reflect off your gold dazzling smock and giant gold gladiator sandals.. ( haha jk). Certainly not something you`d see being sportted in a small town (like mine for instance haha) but the Parisians would appreciate it. magnificient. oui.
