 The Emilio Pucci woman as envisioned by designer Peter Dundas is rock and roll, sexy and elegant for Fall. We see that Dundas is most at home in the Seventies-flavored, rock star territory. Pucci did not disappoint with the classic prints and beautiful colors incorporated into this collection. Most of the pieces were rendered in forest shades: we had clingy cocktail dresses, vamping them up with lace-edged portholes above the bosom or on the back and framing the shoulder blades. Also the detailing is amazing: brilliant embroidered, encrusted, and generally all-around embellished knee-length lace and velvet dresses. It shows yet again that the Pucci workmanship is impressive. That's also the big reason I love the label so much. The garments this Fall accentuate the bust rather than the brand's usual emphasis on the legs.
So mister Dundas, can you send me the first dress pretty please?

*What's your thoughts on the collection?*

anne vyalitsyna11 Anne Vyalitsyna for <em>Harpers Bazaar Spain</em> March 2011 by Txema Yeste

One glam goddess, 20 looks.
Russian model Anne Vyalitsina takes on the most memorable Spring ensembles for the March edition of Harper´s Bazaar Spain. Pieces like Gucci, Givenchy, Lanvin are passing the revue. The issue is photographed by Txema Yeste. What I like about this campaign is that the dramatic ready to wear pieces are photographed with such a breeze of nonchalance.  Thats why his images are often called "luxury realism". It´s raw and edgy, but it still portraits the Spring 2011 trends as no other. Influenced by the classics of photography and painting, Yeste is known for playing with light, lines and forms of the human body. This all in a very sensual and feminine way.

*First of all, keep on following the blog! Your support means a lot to me!*
*Second of all, what´s your opinion on the collection?*
