USHANKA


Ushanka, translation, ear hat.
moi wearing my new ushanka hat which i had longed for so much time, keep me warm.  So I am curious about the history behind this obsession of mine. I'll post more when I finish my research.




JEAN PAUL GAULTIER
For Fall/Winter 2010, Jean Paul Gaultier used different inspirations. From Morocco to Togo, Mexico and India, to Greece, and RUSSIA. An eclectic mixture, using textures, and patterns, fusions of distinct lifestyles and incorporating them into a whole. As if it where a reflection of what is happening to our world with globalization.
Could we get to a point, where the whole world is one entity? Where all cultures are merged to create a multicultural culture? What would it be like? Mr. Gaultier, to me, is giving a little taste of that idea.
In my work, I have as a goal to incorporate details from a wide variety of sources and cultures. I aim for a style of styles.

Out of the 55 fall/winter runway looks, these are my favorite.

summer romance.

black jacket of leather, 
in his head wears feathers.
he rides a bike. 
gives roses with spikes.
he´s a love of a kind.
blows away any girl´s mind.

balmain. goldmine.

This season, winter fall 2010, Balmain continued its classical short dresses with high shoulders. The embroidery was something fresh, and what added texture and differentiated each dress, as the form does get a bit repetitive. Still I want them all. It is a collection which seems comfortable, sexy, dressed up, rockish, and femenine, all in one look.
GOLD GOLD GOLD, color gold played an important part.

comfortable growth

limbo to lim

The looks I liked the most from Phillip Lim's Ready to Wear Fall 2010 Collection, the shoes (above) caught my eye. I love when shoes are heavy to the sight, give me a pair of strong constructed heels with lots of volume, add a white t. and ready to go on the roll. This season Lim's collection is clean, simple, yet elaborated at the same time, a balance of cut, texture, and colore.
