Dior RTW Spring 2014: Fresh Florals, Contemporary Cutouts and Feminine Figures

Sep 27, 2013  |   Contributor: Marissa Stempien

Rich colors and patterns were all over the runway today at Dior’s Spring 2014 show during Paris Fashion Week, and despite the intense mismatching the collection was akin to a breath of fresh air. Black and white was paired well with bright hues and left each piece looking new and modern.... Read More

Lanvin RTW Spring 2014: Sparkle and Shine Make For One Intense Collection

Sep 27, 2013  |   Contributor: Marissa Stempien

It's possible that I’ll get some backlash from the fashion community, but I’m going to say it anyway. I was not a fan of the Lanvin collection. His Spring 2014 show yesterday during Paris Fashion week was just too much. I could count the number of pieces that weren’t shiny, shimmering, or glittering from top to bottom, on one hand....

Luisa Beccaria RTW Spring 2014: Classic Italian Romance

Sep 20, 2013  |   Contributor: Marissa Stempien

It’s refreshing to see a truly beautiful collection during the chaos that is Fashion Week. With all the peacocking that goes on between designers, editors and even attendees it seems like everyone is always trying to outdo one another.... Read More

Bibhu Mohapatra RTW Spring 2014: This Collection Stumbles During Fashion Week—Literally

Sep 11, 2013  |   Contributor: Marissa Stempien

Every now and then you see a collection you think you’ll love—the first few pieces come out, it’s great, a few more, it’s bright and youthful, a few more—and it looks like someone raided your grandmothers closet. The Bibhu Mohapatra Spring 2014 collection that premiered this morning at New York Fashion Week, was that show.... Read More

Naeem Khan RTW Spring 2014: A Dose of Color For Bridal and Evening

Sep 11, 2013  |   Contributor: Marissa Stempien

It should be obvious by now that this coming spring is going to be a wash of black and white with designer after designer showcasing monochromatic collections during New York Fashion Week. And while each label has its own artistic interpretation of how the new trend should play out in the coming seasons, none have mixed the two contrasting hues with any real color.... Read More

Mara Hoffman RTW Spring 2014: Bringing Colors and Bold Patterns Back to Fashion Week

Sep 10, 2013  |   Contributor: Marissa Stempien

There has to be a breaking point for all this black we’re seeing. Did Anna Wintour send out a quick tweet letting every designer know black was going to be the color of the season? If so, I don’t think Mara Hoffman got the message. Her Spring 2014 collection is so saturated with every color of the rainbow that it makes every other runway show seem cold and unfeeling in comparison.... Read More

Sep 9, 2013  |   Contributor: Marissa Stempien

You think you’ve seen everything during fashion week? There's been so much black and white you’re likely sick of it already, right? Then you probably haven’t seen threeASFOUR’s Spring 2014 collection, because nothing beats laser-cut, 3D dresses.... Read More

Jill Stuart RTW Spring 2014: Feminine Form Meets Rock-N-Roll Attitude

Sep 9, 2013  |   Contributor: Marissa Stempien

A very ambitious collection, Jill Stuart stayed true to her feminine roots while breaking out of what seems to be her safe zone and moving into something much more daring. While some shapes were similar to her Fall 2013 pieces, it’s a far cry from her previous spring collection of light colors and conservative lengths.... Read More

Cushnie Et Ochs RTW Spring 2014: Baring Skin in Dark Colors, Cutouts and Collars

Sep 9, 2013  |   Contributor: Marissa Stempien

"In spring, we explore the conflict between hard and soft and the physical restraint binding them together." Carly Cushnie and Michelle Ochs told WWD, but who knew they would take it so literally. In true Cushnie et Ochs form their runway show left little to the imagination, referencing the look of cutouts from their Fall/Winter 2013 collection.... Read More

Tadashi Shoji RTW Spring 2014: Lady-Like Dresses in Metallic, Plaid and Lace

Sep 6, 2013  |   Contributor: Marissa Stempien

Metallic, plaid and lace, while usually not the stuff of fashion fairy tales, actually worked surprisingly well in Tadashi Shoji’s runway show today during New York Fashion Week. Not every gown was princess-worthy but for the most part it was beautifully soft and feminine; Shoji creates distinct tailoring, accenting a women’s figure like no one else could.... Read More

A New Take on Body-Con for Spring by Hervé Léger

May 8, 2013  |   Contributor: Nicolle Keogh

If there’s anyone that knows how to do a bandage dress, it’s the team at Hervé Léger by Max Azria. Whether or not the brand invented the style is debatable, but one thing we can say with confidence is that Hervé Léger by Max Azria finds a way to prove season after season that there are infinite ways to strut the body-con style. For Spring 2013, it’s with patchwork-inspired designs that add a fresh complexity to a classic silhouette.... Read More

Though the leaves are just starting to change color, spring is already in the air— or at least in the world of luxury fashion, it is. And even though it was just this week that we enjoyed our much-anticipated first pumpkin spice lattes of the year, designers like Elie Saab are already getting us giddy about next season. From New York to Paris, the runways are covered in pastels and florals that have us already looking forward to the spring ahead.... Read More

New Eco-Friendly Designer Already a Hit in Hollywood

Oct 3, 2012  |   Contributor: Nicolle Keogh

The Emmys last week officially marked the start of Awards Season— and with that, luxury designer name-dropping. After watching all the Red Carpet recaps last week, we realized there was one designer’s name that we kept hearing over and over again: Oliver Tolentino. And after doing a little research on the new designer, not only are we impressed with his resumé that is already sprinkled with big-name celebrities, but his unconventional approach to luxury women’s fashion is intriguing, as well....
