Zuhair Murad Resort 2014

 



                   





Zuhair Murad Resort 2014 is floor grazing, mouth dropping gorgeous. I love the flowing chiffon, the woven and lace details and beautiful pant suits.  Pant suits are very classic, chic and down to business, my kind of suit.  The pant suit in this collection is very tailored to present the woman's body very graceful and elegantly.

StyleLine Magazine "For Your Man" August Issue



As you may know or not, I write for Michigan's largest women's magazine, StyleLine Magazine check it out here.  I write the trend alert on the magazines only page dedicated to men, "For Your Man".  The idea is to provide the women who read the magazine with styling tips and information for retail and trends to style their man, hence "For Your Man".  In addition to writing for the magazine, I also assistant style the fashion photo shoots for the magazine, which has been a very rewarding internship!

Have a look!

Men's SS 2014: Sheer Runway



 


I quickly noticed the Men's Spring/Summer 2014 collections showcased a bit of a sheer vibe on the runway and I for one am not a fan.  I am not sure what is intended by these designers; whether it is to display a mans masculinity, make him look sexy, show his silhouette or give him breathable fabric, but I am not in favor of either. I found a few looks above from the collections of Astrid Andersen, MAN, J.W. Anderson, James Long, Christopher Shannon and Givenchy, all being a culprit of transparency.  These are not everyday looks and really hope they remain on the runway intending to be fillers and provide the audience with art in the form of fashion, since that is what one may believe clothes are to do anyway.  Ironically, these designers made sure they covered the mens genitalia and over exposed his nipples. One sheer take away (no pun intended) I have from these very telescopic pieces are the red and black sneakers in the James Long show, super dope. What do you think?
