Classy and retro, from the prints to the patterns. Styled head to toe very cleanly and each model mostly paired with clean white sneakers. Very James Bond meets Rebel Without a Cause. My favorite separate pieces would have to be the mustard yellow outerwear and the multicolored bomber jackets. (throws money on the runway) source:

Sleek simple and on trend. A very not in your face collection from Jil Sander. The models where minimally style leaving the full attention to the uncomplicated design and fit. Extremely soft and understated paired with awesome footwear. source:

Roberto Cavalli Menswear S/S 2015 Lavish Safari Rockstars
This Roberto Cavalli collection is badass luxury and exotic. Full of colorful safari leaf and snakeskin prints. The play on the mixture of these prints with an array of different textures and styles. The more you think about it the more these pieces remind you of the 80’s, in the good way of course. source:

Dsquared2 Menswear S/S 2015 Young and Neon
A distinctively obvious Dsquared2 collection. With it’s young preppy rebel vibe and bright clothing #tanned #duckface. The thing that makes this show stand out of the rest are the uses of neon colors, we aren’t seeing much of those this season. Overall fun collection, I specifically enjoy the graphic art on the shirts and sweaters. Especially the cat sweater, meow.

Neil Barrett S/S 2015 White Out!
Perfectly fitted and to the point. Neil Barrett’s SS collection is pure in lack of color. But what in lacks in color it makes of for in sleek fitted design. Very well dressed and layered art-school brat that loves architecture. The collection is very wearable and cool-chic. source:

Dream Spell ft. Sung Hee Kim in Evil Disney Couture
Since everyone is in an evil/beautiful Disney character mood I came across a fashion photoshoot with model Sung Hee Kim for The Magazine. Dream like pink smoke and setting, drenched in couture from the likes of Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci and Vera Wang, the whole thing styled by Holly Gray. The photo series titled “Dream Spell”

Monster Hands! Sankuanz Menswear S/S 2015
Pow! Smack! High five! That’s what this SanKuanz show makes me feel like saying. It’s nice to see a show have some fun with their presentation for a change. I think we’ve been stuck in a Normcore moment for a while so it’s good to see something dramatic. The styling is this show. We can’t avoid those huge cartoon-like arms with makeup to match. I really want the models to break out into a fight just to see those hands in action. The clothing alone also has the playful theme with bones, curtain fringed shorts and large patterns. There are some good fun stand alone pieces.

Soft Ghetto, Hella Dope or Hella Nope.
I was a little thrown back by the term. Initially I found it confusing and insulting, why? Maybe I just like being insulted. The thought of someone not giving the time to fully commit to a style and simply saying it’s soft… On the topic of soft ghetto, here are some examples to check out. Maybe even try?

Shae DeTar’s Colored Photography
Hand colored photographs by Shae DeTar, a mixture of a drugged 60’s and Dr. Suess. These day-dreamlike images capture you with their bold/pastel colors and unusually beautiful content. These are few of her ongoing series. source:

Did someone throw paint on your bag?! No, Painted Accesories.
Remember Kim Kardashians painted Birkin? I do. It seems rediculs at first but the more you think about it it’s just another way of mixing art and fashion. We’ve always seen an abundance of clothing being painted, and in a ever evolving industry we are looking for new ways to say the same thing. Below are bags from Burberry Prorsum Fall/Winter 2014 Details, LFW. who incorporate this painted accessory trend. Do you find this trend ridiculous or uniquely stylish?
