Streetstyle Trend Report 2011: the beard

You might have already noticed, but there are a lot of men with beards lately. Just take a look around, especially during the fashion weeks, and you see them everywhere. Like they all decided to let it grow.
It seems like a beard is becoming more and more of a style statement for men. Like a good hat or a graceful pair of glasses, a beard can do the same thing. It often gives a man more attitude and character and it signifies masculinity and confidence. Sometimes that rough edge can make him look very interesting too. They all look totally different when it comes to their personal style, but they all share this one remarkable style element: a beard.

Streetstyle Trend: Show some skin

Sexy and daring or subtle and sophisticated: transparent fabrics, we’ve seen them everywhere during the fashion weeks and now the fashion crowd is taking over. From see-through tops and blouses to chiffon dresses and long tulle skirts.
Transparent fabrics often have something delicate en soft, but the good thing is you can do everything with it to give it a whole different look, which results in many diverged and interesting looks on the street. For instance Olivia Palermo. She knows how to nail a trend and always does it in her own elegant, lady-like way. Like this black dress. The little print on the sleeves make her look like a sexy, almost Italian woman.
But transparent doesn’t always need to be very chic. You can also go for a more cool downtown look, like the neon colored dress. The black bra en skirt underneath give it an even more edgy and playful feel to it. Or go like Giovanna Battaglia for a sporty dress, like the one from Ohne Titel.
Off course there is only one person who rocks this trend on full force: Anna Dello Russo. As you can see she is wearing a beautiful Stella McCartney dress, which reveals almost half of her body. She’s definitely not afraid to show some skin.

Her outfits are as bubbly as her name suggests. There’s always a nice pop of color and funky sunnies and cool bags make her stand out from the crowd.

The ABC of womenswear ss2012, part 2

Season ss2012 seems still far away, and there is so much to tell about what’s coming up. So we’re putting everything in an ABC round-up. Today part 2.
D is for DIGITALIZE
Digital prints were all over the collections this season, but why did it take that long and why does it stay that close to the pavement laid out by those great pioneers, Alexander McQueen and Mary Katranzou? Lovely, happy and very exiting though.
E is for ETHNIC
Ethnic influences are still visible in fashion. take a look at Burberry’s collection with the rattan and tribal patterns and jewelry, or Donna Karan with her African vibe. Dark earthy colors, ocre, green and red are dominating but there’s also a more tropical and colorful side to this trend with vibrant colors and fantasy patterns.
F is for FIFTIES
This trend tells an entertaining tale of pretty dresses, fit and flare, full as well as swirling and swinging skirts and sweet, sorbet-like colors. It brings us back to the Fifties as known in movies and books. Prada, the brave, alternated this prettiness with spiced up romance, moving beyond stereotypes. Then surprisingly well coordinated was the return of Fifties swimwear.
To be continued.
