Sui He at Ralph Lauren Resort 2015
It was so exciting to see top model Sui He, now number 13 in the world, exiting the Ralph Lauren show in NYC. I remember photographing her when she just hit the scene. Her June look is a harbinger for what we may see on models at Paris Haute Couture in July: all denim with some sweet kicks: metallic Nike Air Max 1 sneakers in “Party,” now sold out at Barneys. Green Givenchy bag. Click through for a close up. (more…)
Eleonora Carisi at Roberto Cavalli FW2014
At the Roberto Cavalli show in Milan, Eleonora Carisi wore a great leather jacket with sleeves done up in paillettes in a snakeskin pattern. Also love the interplay between mirrored sunglass, silver clutch and silver capped heels.
Metallic Shorts and Sunglasses, Outside Roberto Cavalli
The sun is out – better get prepared! Metallic shorts and sunglasses deflected all those rays on a beautifully sunny day outside the Roberto Cavalli show in Milan
Alexa Chung at Marc by Marc Jacobs
The basic trench is being reinvented right now with high-tech applications of color, metallics and waterproof coating. Alexa Chung wore an iridescent one to the Marc by Marc Jacobs (now MBMJ) show in New York. And note the flash of exposed ankles – key for spring 2014.
Red Valentino Skirt, Outside the Dior Show
The long-skirts-for-evening trend shows no sign of stopping, with many guests at the Dior show in Paris mixing long ballroom-style skirts with more casual black tops and sweaters. This antique-inspired Red Valentino skirt in a floral tapestry print looks great with modern silver stilettos and a green fur wrap.
Yasmin Sewell at Carven
We’ve had some rainy days during Paris Fashion Week, but the fashion crowd has risen to the occasion. Yasmin Sewell braved a downpour with a plaid umbrella and silver stilettos at the Carven show.
Michelle Elie at Marni FW2014
Michelle Elie of Garage Magazine looked amazing as usual at the Marni show in Milan, mixing a metallic top and gold filigree Dolce & Gabbana sunglasses with a wooden (Ferragamo?) bag.
Comme des F*down, Outside Just Cavalli
Shea Marie at Herve Leger
More pink coats! This one by Malene Birger on stylist Shea Marie, seen here at the Herve Leger show at Lincoln Center. The fabulous sequin lips shirt, seen on several trendsetters this season, is by Markus Lupfer, and the silver boots are Barbara Bui.
Sara Nicole Rossetto at Alberta Ferretti
Love this look on Italian student Sara Nicole Rossetto: white button down, gold Zara pencil skirt and red lipstick. So simple but so right!
Ndoema at Timo Weiland
Ndoema of the Global Girl blog wore a fabulous metallic embroidered coat – vintage, I think – to the Timo Weiland show. Glittery pants are the finishing touch.
Silver Margiela Pants, Outside the Carven Show
One of the biggest takeaways from the S/S 2014 fashion weeks is the new shape of pants. They’ve gone from the skinny “jeggings” type silhouette to something looser and more relaxed, in a variety of unexpected materials from leather to this silver metallic Maison Martin Margiela pair seen outside the Carven show. Love how she has mixed them with a soft and fuzzy cropped sweater for contrast. And yes, they should be worn with heels.
Chiara Ferragni and Tina Leung at Chloe
Blush pink is a big color for fall 2013. Chiara Ferragni and Tina Leung wore it in different ways – in a flocked print on Chiara and in a shiny metallic on Tina. Very polished.
Daria Strokous at Lanvin
There’s nothing quite like the glamour of Paris at night. Model Daria Strokous exited the Lanvin show in a fabulous black and gold beaded mini dress, beautifully dressed for a night on the town.
Update: the dress is Balmain.
Candela Novembre in Marni
Candela Novembre wore a metallic Marni jacket to the show in Milan this morning. A bright spot amid the crowd.
