The Item: Black-ish superstar and Pattern CEO, Tracee Ellis Ross cause a high fashion stir in the Marc Jacobs Fall 2019 Cotton-Blend Ball Gown. Tracee was spotted in the bold yellow luxury look in a promo photo for her hair brand company that was posted to social media platform, Instagram.

You Asked: I just love me some Tracee! She has really made her own path outside of her mother and she just does her? Have you guys have any articles on her hair products? I haven’t tried any but would like to get some additional information on them. Also that yellow dress she posted is beautiful! You already know I want details lol.

Marc Jacobs Fall 2019

 

The Verdict: Hello! Thank you for reaching out to us here at 1966! We too are major Tracee fans and are always excited to see what she is up to! Yes, we do have features on Tracee’s haircare brand; you can find them under our HAIR tab. Here’s a good one to get you started.

Nevertheless, let’s talk some fashion! That yellow dress that you love is by the one and only, Marc Jacobs (Yay! Lol). It is actually a design from his Fall 2019 collection; however, as one can see, when something is designed in a timeless way; then it can look fabulous regardless of the season it originally came out.

As for the price of this gown, it is quite the splurge. One closed trunk show originally sold this for $11,000. That’s college tuition. That’s a house down payment. So as a wise woman once said about money, “I’m either eating it, wearing it or it’s hanging in my closet.”

 

 

Hope that answered your fashion question! If you or a style obsessed gal pal has one they would like to ask give us a follow on Instagram, slide into our DMs and ask away.

David Koma AW20 -Glamorous Cityscape Meets Couture!

David Koma AW20

 

Ever seen the twinkling skyline of a city during twilight hours? It is nothing short of majestic and can instantly take your breath away. As the light orange, golden light delicately hits the reflective windows of skyscrapers and intermittent buildings; a glamorous display of industrial beauty begins to shine forth. It’s this backdrop that must of had a profound effect on the David Koma AW20 collection. Which included a dazzling array of garments that encompasses structural tailoring and mesmerizing embellishments!

https://www.instagram.com/p/B8uS7FkBwZj/?igshid=1ey30xv05wig2

The David Koma Autumn/ Winter 2020 runway show reminds us of serious New York City skyline vibes. If you have ever seen the sun set there you already know it is an enchanting experience. NYC is a seductive place in itself. Beyond its “rough” exterior; it shines up well due to its architectural makeup.

The Chrysler Building, Empire State Building and numerous bridges all play a part in giving the city a definitive edge. Nevertheless, Koma’s collection could be based on any major city throughout the world. Each one’s iconic skylines are all capable of having the same luxurious appeal.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B8oppY-AT38/?igshid=p60ayj1xy3cl

But the truth is, Koma stuck to the brand’s roots. The show was held in London at the Leadenhall Building. A world class building that sits in the very heart of London. Like New York, London’s scene is just as attractively eye-catching.

It is easy to see why this U.K. city serves as such inspiration in terms of fashion. Whether day or night, London has an energy that can go from punk to posh in a blink of the eye.

Furthermore, the David Koma runway show effectively captured the beauty that is found in the architectural design of London. The Autumn/ Winter 2020 collection accomplished this with designs by imitating the construction of buildings.

Also, we loved the play on the gleaming aspect of a city. Models walked the catwalk in garments FULL of crystals and bling. Mimicking glistening windows and the light up display of the city lights at night. David Koma sent a gorgeous display of sparkling designs that would make the stars in the sky jealous!

Simply put it is a beautiful, edgy and glam collection. A nice modern and fresh breath of creative air. It’s great to see designers stretch themselves and what inspires them.

Versace V-Bow Cage Pumps

Versace V-Bow Cage Pumps anyone? Uhm… HECK YEAH! We are absolutely DYING to add these beauties to our wardrobes! Heralding from the Versace Fall / Winter 2019 collection; these heels give brand new meaning to “caged” shoe wear.

For instance, when many think of cage heels or sandals; what may instantly come to mind is “gladiator” style high heels or sandals. A major shoe trend that took the ENTIRE fashion industry by storm from the runway to fast fashion. Mainly because the overall vibe and essence of the cage design is edgy, sexy and dare we say, EXTREMELY eye-catching. However, Versace’s modern version is all of those things and more!

Seriously, it is the cage look on crack (and we mean that in the best way lol). It’s wild, sassy and straight up oozing of lustrous sophistication. There is absolutely NO WAY you will not turn heads if you wear a pair of these Versace pumps.

Furthermore, we adore the crystal embellishments. They add a higher level of decadence to a design of shoe that is already simply divine. Plus, if you are the type of person who loves to make a scene when you walk into an event. These shoes will get you all the attention and style adoration that you seek.

Versace V-Bow Cage Pumps in Black

So what details does Versace reveal about these amazing pumps? Well, in regards to the V-Bow Cage heels Versace states,

“In preparation for the upcoming festive season; an array of crystal-enriched accessories is featured in our gift guide. These heritage cage pumps are crafted from soft satin and embellished with crystal-enriched accents. Including bows and Medusa medallions.”

Want to make these babies your very own? Well, you can if you take out a loan… (We kid Lol). These high-end shoes are a bit of a splurge and currently retail for a cool $2,475. Get those OT shifts in fashionistas!
