ArianneUpdated on September 13, 2018September 12, 2018

PHHH… PHRESH OUT THE RUNWAY! No one does fashion week like a Badgal! The Savage X Fall Winter 2018 fashion show by far was the hottest ticket of New York Fashion Week. Dancers, top models and a collection of lingerie that would make anyone break a sweat. Ohhh baby!

Savage X Fall Winter 2018 Fashion Show for NYFW

Listen, business mogul, Rihanna, sure knows how to attract attention and stir up some sales! The Savage X creator not only sent a spanking new fall/winter collection down the catwalk; but she also dropped it online at the SAME TIME. Uh, can you say, website crash?

What can fans and lingerie lovers as well as consumers expect? The autumn collection is full of fun flirty colors as well as details. More lace, ribbons and barely there see-through material were incorporated into numerous fab looks.

The color scheme is vast yet alluring and steamy fun. Rich blue, bold light green, red and decadent purple all permeated the seductive designs. Nevertheless, if boisterous hues are no where to be found in your couture dictionary; you will be happy to know there are “safer” tones to enjoy as well.

Rihanna’s fall/winter garments also include some frilly, ultra fem pinks, lilac and light baby blues. Plus, numerous looks additionally utilize a very earth tone palette. Think browns, military green, and light tans. Or, if all else fails there is always classic black.

One sexy element we certainly adored was the use of accessories, such as the “long hand gloves.” Since let’s face it, wearing the same old … same old intimate apparel is a total bore! The real fun is in the additions.

The gloves that extend from fingertips to above the elbows exude a very vintage, full of sass feel. Like the pin up doll era. This retro sexy incorporation is a surefire way to increase your lingerie attire’s fierce appeal. Like it really needs it though (wink, wink).

Savage X Fall Winter 2018

Like any dominant businesswoman, Rihanna ALWAYS listens to her fans and consumers. When Savage X first hit the fashion scene, many felt that they were not apart of the equation. Ladies from all over the world spoke up about the size range availability within Savage X.

Rihanna obviously got the memo and listened 100%. The autumn/winter runway showcased tons of diversity and inclusion. Thin shapes, curvy shapes and everything in-between hit the catwalk to proudly represent women of all physiques.

Rihanna’s line proves that where there is a will, there is a way to be inclusive of women of all sizes, heights and structure. The fashion industry has always leaned toward one particular look; nevertheless, with the success of Savage X other designers and owners may just take note.

Metallic Lips: Foiled Lips From Jeremy Scott Spring 2019 Fashion Show

ArianneUpdated on September 8, 2018September 7, 2018

Metallic lips are back and more BOLD and IN YOUR FACE than ever! Forget glitter, forget your regular sparkle palette and look to the runway for all cosmetic inspiration. That is because designer genius, Jeremy Scott, for his Jeremy Scott Spring 2019 show; brought the makeup house down by bringing foiled lips back to the catwalk.

Metallic Lips: Foiled Lips From Jeremy Scott Spring 2019 Fashion Show

Depending on how lipstick fanatic you are… you may recall the foiled lips splash that was created by the iconic Pat McGrath. Her crimson shiny, futuristic lip look was the talk of the beauty town when it appeared for the Maison Margiela Fall 2017 Couture Week show. Or perhaps you may be thinking of those Glitzy Lips foil appliques from like the early 2010’s era.

Regardless, of what foil makeup moment immediately comes to mind; no matter how many times you see foil lips it never gets old. It’s fierce, edgy and totally cosidered statement makeup. For Jeremy Scott’s fashion show for New York Fashion Week MUA (makeup artist), Kabuki, perfected and executed a dazzling metallic pink lip. Want the look? Here’s how:

Purchase foil lips in the tone or color you like. They will most likely come in pre-cut “lip shape” strips.
Next make sure lips are super clean and dry.
Apply an adhesive and wait for it to go from a milky tint to clear. PLEASE WAIT or the foiling will not work!
Now place the foil (shiny side up) on your lips and press. After a few moments you can gently remove and voila! A foil masterpiece! Retouch and repeat in order to fill in any gaps.

Arianne September 7, 2018September 7, 2018

Designer Carly Cushnie is killing us softly! Giving us a little something of everything… think dresses, pant suits and swimwear. The Cushnie Spring-Summer 2019 Runway Show ushered in a feminine flair; with strong emphasis on silhouette as well as delicate detailing.

There was also plenty of black girl magic to around. Models such as Winnie Harlow, Aid Curtiss, Tarah Rodgers, Hereith Paul, Alicia Burke, Maria Borges as well as Grace Mahary.

New York Fashion Week: Cushnie Spring-Summer 2019 Runway Show

In a realm well-known for over the top glamour and structure; it is refreshing to see Cushnie still lean toward simplistic luxury. The fashion label’s fashion show for the Spring/Summer 2019 season incorporated enchanting floor-length gowns, as well as modern denim wear.

If you love a great jean ensemble then the LEE x Cushnie lineup (which is apart of the Cushnie SS19 collection) will certainly be worth your couture consideration. It includes tops, pants, jumpsuits and even cut-out dresses. A very fun, relaxed and flirty addition to an already set to stun runway show.

Another aspect that we absolutely loved about the show is the sexy elements of the gowns. Cushnie proves that less can be more. While the gowns cover most of the body; deep V necks, high thigh slits, cut-outs, fringe, spaghetti strap as well as off the shoulder designs infused each look with sultry sass.

Lastly, the color tones are playful, sophisticated and strong. From festive to noire, the hues of the collection are perfect for the spring as well as summer seasons.

Fashion Notes: When it comes to fashion styling remember to K.I.S.S. (keep it simple sis). Models in the show wore sleek and well-trimmed tresses as well as simple yet large hoop earrings.

We can only describe this fashion show in one word, mesmerizing. From gowns that float as if they had sprouted wings or drip from a waterfall; to attire reminiscent of iridescent feathers. The entire Iris Van Herpen Fall 2018 collection is just a divine spectacle to behold.

Designer Iris Van Herpen shared a few words regarding the inspiration beyond this extraordinary show. Iris reveals,

“For ‘Syntopia’ I felt inspired by the intricate echoing work of the artists Studio Drift. Their spatial kinetic installation ‘In 20 Steps’ is constructed of 20 delicate glass wings; that represent all the different steps of flying in an abstract way.

The vivacious glass bird flows in symbiosis with the models while they move over the runway. Their delicate interaction emphasizes the fragility of new worlds living and soaring together.”

ArianneUpdated on May 15, 2017May 15, 2017Leave a Comment

With all eyes from the industry on her and her stunning collection Chiuri opened fire with a sizzling lineup as iconic as the Wild West itself! Tip those hats dolls we are riding off into the sunset with a quick recap of the Dior Cruise 2018 Runway Show.

Dior Cruise 2018 Runway Show – “Dior Sauvage”- The Wild Wild West

Set against the backdrop of the wide open plains of California, the Dior Cruise 2018 runway show was magically ethereal. Cascading tents, hot air balloons, fire pits and delicate dim lighting of lanterns danced across the catwalk into the dusk sky. Dior effortless captured the aura of the old west while infusing their runway and high-end designs with the classic modern Dior flair.

Nevertheless, forget needing to be saved by some lasso throwing cowboy. The Dior Sauvage couture came off strong, bold, rustic without sacrificing even a hint femininity. The woman who adorns herself in this collection can hold a torch on her own but can still revel and bask in her womanly allure.

Dior Cruise 2018 Runway Show

The Dior fashion house gave an earful of what served as the inspiration behind the 2018 cruise collection. Furthermore, even though the garments certainly spoke for themselves, we absolutely loved every word they said! Dior mentions,

“For her first cruise collection for the House, Maria Grazia Chiuri has employed the Dior Savoir Faire. Reinventing it to tell her story in idealized forms. A story that alters proportions and lengths to correspond to the contemporary landscape, in which sport mixes with haute couture. Where tradition transforms into ornamental abstraction and materials see their status changed.

A collection informed by a wild and ancient femininity bound to the magic of the earth! Maria Grazia Chiuri continues to remain loyal to her feminist vision. Design by a woman for a woman.

From the prehistoric wolves emerging from the Lascaux cave on the striking silk jacquards. To the reinterpreted female handprints becoming magnificent sequined embroideries in earthy shades. Maria sought to embrace and explore the Dior heritage for her Dior Cruise 2018 collection!

We have to say that Chiuri accomplished that and then some. However, now it is time for you to experience it yourself. Scroll through this feature to review a few of our favorite looks.

ArianneUpdated on May 6, 2017May 5, 2017Leave a Comment

Let out your inner couture goddess dolls! The Chanel Cruise 2018 runway show oozed of luxurious flair rich in Grecian culture. Think exquisite draping, gladiator sandals, gold accents as well as wreathed, embellished headbands. Mr. Lagerfeld certainly captured the essence of Greece and brought it to Paris!

Runway Fashion: Chanel Cruise 2018 “Modernity of Antiquity” Show

“I see Greece as the origin of beauty and culture.” Those were the words of legendary Chanel designer, Karl Lagerfeld in regards to the inspiration behind his Chanel Cruise 2018 runway show. Lagerfeld constructed a breathtaking show that delivered down to the most minuit detail. Even the catwalk’s decor of larger than life pillars and stone work caused one and all in attendance to feel transported from Paris directly into the past. As a result, the entire collection is an ode to the grace and beauty of ancient Greece. Every piece as well as color palette tone was beautiful and fit the show’s overall theme.

Furthermore, what is a runway show without great hair? The Chanel Cruise 2018 collection’s hair looks nicely complimented the show’s couture. Tresses were pulled back into an effortless half up, half down style with the top portion being fashioned into a braid. Hair accessories additionally played a major role in making the hairstyle even more ethereal and extravagant. The results were so elegant and current they would be the perfect chic hairstyle for this season as well!

Chanel Cruise 2018

Several garments and pieces caught our eye but one accessory in particular made us swoon instantly. A gorgeously decorated black and gold hand bag with an owl made its glorious appearance during the show and although small, made quite a statement. In Greek mythology the owl represents Athena, known as being the goddess of wisdom. Thus making the bag quite fitting. Furthermore, being slight Clash of the Titans nerds we could not help but be reminded of all the films as well as their entertaining characters.

Nevertheless, the bag, the hair, the makeup and of course stunning designs made a deep impression and etched a moment into the fashion industry that shall never be forgotten. Chanel put on one amazing show that has us even more stylishly excited for 2018!
