Luella

Designer Spotlight: Luella
Luella Spring 2010 RTW



pictures rom style.com

I have to say that this collection is one of my favorites of all time. It was cute and adorable without being to childish. I'm a huge fan of headbands and bows, and I love using solids and adding pops of color with accessories or one of the pieces of the outfit. The Luella Spring 2010 RTW collection does just that. There were lots of big bows in the hair, cute and bold handbags, pastels, florals, polka dots, and my absolute favorite from the collection, the heart cut out dress. I also love how so many of these designs aren't so out there that they can't be copied or used as realistic inspiration. I've been looking online for black on white polka dot shorts for a long time and I can't seem to find any. I love them in this line, so if any of you know were I can find some I'd love to know :)

Natural Chic


Fendi Spring 2010 RTW

I just love Fendi's Spring 2010 RTW line. It was so feminine, fresh, inocent, natural, and light looking, all while staying chic, elegant, and poised. Above are some of my favorites from the collection. The first is my absolute favorite, and I'm hoping I'll be able to make a look inspired by this one soon. The second is so natural and flowy looking. I just want to wear it while walking on the beach with the wind in my hair. The third is so light and the structure of the dress is beautiful. I also love it with the belt. I know that some 2010 couture, resort, and pre-fall are already hitting the runways, but its beginning to feel more like spring, and this collection reminds me of just that.

Fendi Quick Facts:
-It was started in 1918 in Rome by Adele Casagrande
-The name was changed to Fendi in 1925 when Adele Casagrande maried Edoardo Fendi
-Karl Lagerfeld (current Chanel designer)was hired by Fendi in 1965

Abstract Fashion

When i first saw the pictures from the Viktor & Rolf Spring 2010 RTW runway show, my first reaction was WOW! The designs reminded me of an abstract painting by Picasso. Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren cuttulle ball gowns, and the effect was surreal and a piece of art. From holes to slices, the Viktor & Rolf Spring 2010 RTW was a one-of-a-kind collection.

Viktor & Rolf Facts:
-Their full names are Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren and these two Dutch men began designing clothes in 1993
-Viktor & Rolf both attended and graduated from the Netherlands' Arnhem Academy of Art and Design
