May 2, 2013 | Contributor: Nicolle KeoghLately we’ve been taking a trip down memory lane and looking at the way past decades and time periods influence today's fashion trends. The ‘20s are making a roaring comeback with The Great Gatsby and pin-up styles of the ‘50s can be seen in modern swimwear. But we can’t help but notice the nod to the Forties that hit the runways at the most recent fashion shows. In the case of Fall 2013, we can say with pure confidence that history certainly repeats itself, thanks to sightings of slim skirts, shapely blazers, and frilly furs, of course.... Read More | 
Mar 21, 2013 | Contributor: Annalisa SolariOne would think that with its intricate details, flamboyant hues and avant-garde designs, haute couture is pretty hard to upstage. As we've come to learn over the years, this simply isn't the case and luxury designers have taken it upon themselves to turn their runway shows into theatrical demonstrations. Once a designer is established enough, anything goes, and season after season they try to outdo eachother in extravagance and shock factor. Here we have compiled a list of five jaw-dropping moments that have hit the catwalk from fashion's most infamous designers.... Read More | 
Mar 19, 2013 | Contributor: Annalisa SolariAfter Elie Saab’s Spring Haute Couture show, we couldn’t imagine a ready-to-wear collection that would be able to top its splendor. However, this is one of those rare occasions when a luxury designer has the ability to put out dazzling designs season after season. While the couture collection was a back-to-back lineup of jaw-dropping garments and red carpet-ready dresses, the selection of ready-to-wear items for fall brilliantly focuses on a jewel-tone color palate with intricate details that can only be considered innately “Elie Saab.”...

Mar 12, 2013 | Contributor: Annalisa SolariWhen it comes to fashion, luxury designer Karl Lagerfeld certainly doesn't disappoint. Sure, there are plenty of times when we simply wish he would take an extra second to think before he constructs one of his all-too-famous snarky remarks; however, when it comes to constructing a truly exquisite ensemble, Mr. Lagerfeld has an innate ability that should never be doubted.
Chanel is one particular brand that is known for its textured pieces that have the rare ability to withstand the test of time, and it is clear that Lagerfeld has remained true to this design theme with bold silhouettes in a variety of interesting materials.... Read More | 
Mar 6, 2013 | Contributor: Tina StewartLuxury designer Miuccia Prada offers fans a series of playful impressions alongside some seriously striking silhouettes in her women's fall collection for Miu Miu. The line's tone for autumn is a bit dreamy, replete with moody colors and theatrical shapes. Though darkly romantic, splashes of color do appear in the form of bright, diagonally striped skirts that peek out from under long coats and colorful neckties that sit primly atop polka-dotted ensembles....

Mar 13, 2013 | Contributor: Nicolle KeoghWith the launch of the London Men’s Fashion Week last year, more and more brands are moving their menswear shows to “The Big Smoke.” Following Alexander McQueen and Tom Ford, it seems only fitting that the most quintessentially British luxury fashion label brings its menswear shows home after years of presenting at other international fashion weeks....

Feb 19, 2013 | Contributor: Annalisa SolariA complete 180-degree turn from Altuzarra’s spring collection of dazzling prints and fresh colors, luxury designer Joseph Altuzarra has moved towards a more refined and elegant silhouette for Fall 2013. Sculpted and form-fitting, the label's new garments showcase a happy medium between sex appeal and class. With modern technology and our desire for instant gratification, trends are forced to constantly evolve; therefore, Altuzarra's ready-to-wear collection for fall is said to be inspired by the ever-changing and multi-faceted aspects of style found on the street....

Feb 18, 2013 | Contributor: Annalisa SolariElements of extreme roller skating, '90s grunge, and the notorious band of bikers in Hell's Angels can all be found in Gilded Age's men's collection for fall. The runway show appropriately took place at Chez André, an underground karaoke club in the Bowery neighborhood of New York City. This neon pink-infused environment combines rock 'n' roll, fashion, and a twinge of destruction— making it the ideal stage for luxury designer Stefan Miljanic's latest collection.... Read More | 
Feb 18, 2013 | Contributor: Annalisa SolariUnafraid of taking traditional silhouettes and spicing them up with interesting details and flashy elements, luxury designer Mathieu Mirano’s recent runway show for his Fall 2013 collection featured an array of asymmetrical designs and surprising cut-outs. Through the use of luxe materials such as chain mail, leather, fur and georgette fabric, the collection had a real Space Age feel while remaining tasteful and chic.... Read More | 
Feb 15, 2013 | Contributor: Annalisa SolariIf you’re looking for an iconic American brand that is half Upper East Side prep, half skipper, then look no further than classic luxury brand, Nautica. After decades of being the go-to brand for stylish and adventurous gentleman, Nautica has just celebrated their 30 year anniversary with a memorable and inspired collection of menswear during New York fashion week....

Feb 15, 2013 | Contributor: Annalisa SolariWe can truly appreciate a luxury designer who is bold enough to rebel against creating ensembles that simply incorporate different variations of black, brown and navy— a characteristic that is typical of many fall collections. Alexandre Herchcovitch breaks the mold by designing structured clothing whose intricate shapes take inspiration from the array of flowers found in nature— furthermore, vibrant pops of color against a more toned-down palette reflect the natural hues that can be found in gardens and rainforests....

Feb 14, 2013 | Contributor: Annalisa SolariDescribed as a “cocktail" collection (and if that’s the case, we will gladly take a drink) by designers Sharon Wauchob and Ricky Hendry of luxury brand EDUN, the label's Fall 2013 collection drew inspiration from a variety of different subcultures, including mod, biker and grunge looks. By depicting a range of different scenes and eras, the designs are surprisingly cohesive and ensembles were strikingly put together at the New York Fashion Week runway show.... Read More | 
Feb 8, 2013 | Contributor: Tina StewartFans know what to expect from avant-garde fashion house Maison Martin Margiela — the unexpected. However, the luxury brand has proven to endorse a few recurring themes for its collections over the years, such as deconstruction, recycled fabrics, and strong tailoring.
