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!

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.

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.

India Westbrooks Wears Digby Jackson Chemical Plant Overalls

Here’s a little bit of fashion truth: Overalls are basically cool from pre-school up to 2nd grade. Then they quickly lose their appeal. However, a new crop of awesome designers are taking this classic and giving it a fresh remixed modern spin. Our favorite pick of this sudden overall revival hails from a couture genius stationed in London town. Check out his unique vision… India Westbrooks Wears Digby Jackson Chemical Plant Overalls.

India Westbrooks Wears Digby Jackson Chemical Plant Overalls

Ugh… we just love edgy couture! The Digby Jackson Chemical Plant Overalls ooze effortless cool vibes. Miss India Westbrooks took one of her recent photo shoots to new levels by adorning herself with head-to-toe Digby Jackson fashions.

The petite beauty wore the stylish Chemical Plant Overalls/Dungarees with yeti shoes. Moreover, she mixed retro with revision by opting to forgo a shirt. Google the chick from Come On Eileen and you will see exactly what we mean. Furthermore, the overalls are so fashion forward that its unisex. Both girls and boys can kill it so we have to tip our hats off to Jackson for such a versatile design.

Nevertheless, India is in good celebrity company when it comes to wearing the DJ brand. Serayah, Fergie Ferg as well as Sofia Richie have all worn Digby Jackson digs. Its the cool kids brand and we are excited to witness the full on fashion domination in the future.

Hair Notes: If you are going to wear clothing that’s already “in your face” it is best to keep hair simple. Doing so has two fold benefits. One you will not overpower your outfit allowing the focus to remain on your statement pieces. Also, you will keep the look very clean instead of overworked.

Anti World Tour Goes to London

Anti World Tour Goes to London

Rihanna stepped out tonight in full head-to-toe glamour as the Anti World Tour Goes to London! RiRi has been on a roll in the style department and stunning her fans in everything from swimwear to urban chic. One fact remains whether she’s at the pool or about to take the stage she kills it!

Just hours ago social media erupted as the Anti World Tour Goes To London frenzy got underway. Rihanna is in the UK to perform at the historic Wembley Stadium. Over 90,000 fans will soon be screaming their brains out to hits like Work, BBHMM and Love the Way You Lie.

Anti World Tour Goes to London2

Speaking of Love the Way You Lie, that is the song Rihanna recently shed some tears during while performing in Dublin. Fans were instantly very concerned and worried about Rihanna’s health. As of tonight, Rihanna looked healthy and vibrant. So no need to worry navy, Robin is okay!

Anti World Tour Goes To London On The Move

It may be a little wet in London, but tomorrow Rihanna will bring the heat as she takes the stage at Wembley. Some of the most iconic events and artists have graced the stage there. Who all have performed at Wembley Stadium? Events and artists such as: The London Olympics, The Rolling Stones, Live Aid, Queen, World Cup, Muse and Michael Jackson the King of Pop.

Anti World Tour Goes to London3

Nevertheless, Rihanna’s stay in the UK is not an one night stand. After her concert at Wembley Stadium her tour bus will roll out to a few other cities. She will also perform at Coventry Ricoh Arena and Hampden Park.

Rihanna was in good company upon her arrival into London Town. Her brother and BFF, Melissa “Mdollas1” Forde, were spotted heading to dinner with the songstress. They dined on Cantonese cuisine at Hakkasan. Upon arriving, Rihanna dazzled in front of paparazzi and their flashing cameras.

She wore an all black ensemble and carried her valuables in a cute Louis Vuitton handbag. We have been living for the oversized look Rihanna has been rocking with lately. The oversized tee and furry velvet boots were simply killer!

More Rihanna Headlines

Switching gears a little bit but still staying within the fashion world. New kicks by Miss Fenty are currently available. Well, sort of new in a way.

The fan favorite Fenty x Puma trainers are now available in Grey. The silvery tone gives the sneakers a super sleek look and feel. To many fans the release is a true relief. Especially, since the trainers continue to sell out at record pace.

Anti World Tour Goes to London6

Last bit of Rihanna news that we will hit today is the new song collaboration between our Badgal and Calvin Harris. The dance hit helped achieve more Billboard charts history for both artists. This Is What You Came For debuted at No.1 on the Dance/Electronic chart and at No.9 for the Hot 100 chart.

Rihanna Making History

This Is What You Came For is Rihanna’s 28th top 10 smash and Calvin Harris’ fourth. This means that Rihanna is now tied with legend, Stevie Wonder. Therefore, Rihanna continues to flex her music icon status and do it across multiple charts.

Nonetheless, this raises a few questions in light of the Anti World Tour Goes to London show. It is not uncommon for special guests to make an appearance during a big show. Will Calvin Harris suddenly appear to perform “This” with Rihanna? Or will Drake cross the pond to “Work” it with Fenty?

Calvin Harris taking selfies with fan

Well, in a few hours all will be revealed. We can’t wait and we are curious if Rihanna will take home a BET Award this Sunday. BET Network came under fire for stating on Twitter that the Anti album was better than Beyonce’s Lemonade album. More on that later and let’s just enjoy Rihanna’s voguish fashion for now!
