Spring '08 Wrap-Up: Marni

Today I woke up with a fever, sniffy nose, a scratchy throat and puffy red eyes. Booooooo.

Now I have to miss the flea market at Powerhouse and I had to cancel a visit to the annual festive street bazaar at Geylang. I hate the place because of the crazy crowds, but I've already prepared a craving for the food :(.

And for some reason I'm watching A Walk to Remember, hoorah.

Anyway, another favourite collection, Marni.

Skirts and dresses in plenty of volume, I love.

Off to get better now.
I hate being sick.

Spring '08 Wrap-Up: Prada

I just bought 2 dresses on ebay! Sorry LV Speedy, I'll go think through my actions now :(. Just spreed for 2 bags also! Sorry LV *bows repeatedly*

Something's wrong when you start humanising a bloody brand name x_x. Curse my superficiality.

Anyway! Prada.

This was an interesting collection. It's surprisingly darker, but still as eccentric.

The models look like unhappy fairies who just re-emerged for some serious business.

The interesting cuttings and shapes in the prettiest silk screens and chiffon that is unusually paired with tartan stockings pairing and attention seeking shoes makes this a favourite collection for me.

Spring '08 Wrap-Up: Giles

If anything this show was confusing. It's all over the place with nature and tea party themes.

The show opened with a stiff denim dress and the last thing I expected was flowy gorgeous gowns and silk t-shirt dresses.

Although I can't quite grasp the concept Giles Deacon is trying to bring across, I can't deny that this is one gorgeous collection. This collection also mostly consists of beautifully tailored dresses, making this yet another favourite Spring collection.






With the kind of fabric and print in the collection, one could easily go overboard. But everything here is played in right proportion, so outfits like these turn out slightly eccentric yet still very wearable.

This has to be about my favourite piece out of the collection. I'm not sure whether it's just the cheekiness of the fox ear-ed head ornament, but I love the dress all the same.

Spring '08 Wrap-Up: Zac Posen

Yet another one of my favourite collections, Zac Posen's creations were absolutely gorgeous. About every shape is tastefully done, be it deconstruction, pleats or ruffles.

Spring '08 Wrap-Up: Betsey Johnson

School is starting on monday! Which explains the slow update - been trying to make full use of whatever holiday that's left! Now to figure out how to appease my mom and regain some lost sleep :(

Anyway, it's retro Prom night at Betsey Johnson.

Adorable pouffy dresses with layers and layers of tulle in a yummy bubblegum colour palette makes me wish we had a better prom.

I like how there're different looks for different, uh, cliques. Heh.

Another thing to love - the quirky and genius accessorising.

The Couples

Going Solo

I found some gorgeous purses myself and I'll upload them asap.
Uploading is such a hassle now. Hate losing things *grumbles*

Spring '08 Wrap-Up: Anna Sui

Another favourite collection from Fashion week, Anna Sui.

This collection is crazy rocking!

The edgy hair, happy-looking models, the burst of the wonderful mixture of colour, texture and print that is so reminiscent of Anna Sui all come together to form pretty punk rock of every appealing form.

Spring '08 Wrap-Up: L.A.M.B.

Honestly I was not expecting that much from L.A.M.B. The past collections were good, but they're not that great. Which was why I was pleasantly thrilled that this time round I was excited enough to look through every outfit.

They were very fun, very wearable and definitely very Gwen, for lack of a better word. You can see Gwen Stefani in every outfit on the runway.

I love this bustier dress, which is strange because I'm never one who'd look at checkers.
Perhaps it's the tulle that adds girlishness to the flirty punk?

Adorable vest, crazy over sized policeman hat, high-waisted shorts with suspenders, knee-high stockings and yellow and green peep-toe heels - the epitome of preppy cuteness.

The ruffling detail accentuates the otherwise monotonous pencil skirt, making it the perfect pair-up with the punchy yellow and green.

I know I've expressed some dislike for the bootie.
But right now I'm thinking they're not so bad after all. Oh'oh :s

Rave prep? Cool.

Best thing about the outfit: the orgasmic shoes.
I'm still looking for the perfect beige nude shoes, the ones that are in the right are pointed patented ones but I prefer platforms like these.

White vest underneath the the bustier dress.
I've yet to see anyone wear this combo out but it is a nice idea to toy with.
Oh, and oh yeah the shoes.

Lovely Mama Gwen and Baby Kingston.
