Hot Fashion Tips

Dresses - shirts for the last couple years became an integral part of a summer wardrobe. This summer season dresses-shirts are more serious alternative to other dress trends.
One of relevant ways to wear a dress-shirt is to combine it with leggings. Actually, some models without leggings can look simply slovenly (as though their owner has simply forgotten to put on trousers), especially, if the dress itself very much reminds a simple shirt (a dress from Splendid).
One more actual trend is a dress-shirt from a striped or checkered cotton or linen fabric. Dress-shirt See by Chloe became a hit in shops. Basically, different on style dresses-shirts can meet completely different purposes: for example, the white dress from Chloe can be put on a beach whereas brand Viktor & Rolf offers much more classical dress which will suit the majority of women.
Urban Outfitters and Joie offer more youth and democratic in terms of the price dress. A romantic image will be created with the dress-shirt from Rebecca Taylor, which combines classical top with light lace below.
Casual-style lovers will like the dress-shirt from designer Vanessa Bruno which, as well as all her other creations, embodies a city casual-glamour.

Today it is difficult to find people who understand words “window shopping” literally. “Window shopping” has been always considered as an original entertainment during the city walk or as a preparation for the real shopping. Everything was like that until designer Ralph Lauren has not transformed window shopping into more fascinating pastime.
Now admirers of Ralph Lauren brand in London following New York inhabitants can buy clothes without entering the shop. London boutique is already the second shop of the American designer equipped with the unique novelty - the touch screen on a shop window. With the help of this device buyers can order the clothes they want to their houses.
The device works easy. You enter your home address with the help of the special touch keyboard located directly on a shop window, together with the information of a credit card. Well, though the designer asserts, that such innovations are more advertising tricks, rather than alternative to the real shopping, practice shows that many with pleasure use the new service.

Fashion creators have long ago settled on villas and beaches in San Trope. The last summer remained in memory by a loud party and John Galliano’s show, this year Dolce & Gabbana and Roberto Cavalli have decided to support the tradition.
And last week Emilio Pucci arrived in summer hangout capital with the show of his last winter collection.
That evening hotel La Tartane gathered the closest friends - more than 100 persons. The daughter of the company’s founder Lawdomia Pucci in a dress with bright flower pattern welcomed the guests.
Her dress-code was fallowed by the majority of present ladies. And gentlemen, despite of the resort mood, have put on suits and white shirts.
Long-legged girls in multi-colored coats and fur coats defiled along the pool, and respectable visitors, nodding their approval, asked the price of their future purchases.
The collection got praises even of the most strict critics after fashion show during Milan Fashion Week last February, has been appreciated by potential buyers as well.

For the last some years Gucci began to associate not only with a sensual aesthetics, and with revealing sex, compelling fashion critics to name it “a pornographic glamour”. However all has changed, when 34-years Frida Giannini became the creative derector, 41-years Mark Lee - an executive director of the brand.
“Sex has been left in 90th, - told Frida Giannini during the last Fashion Week in Milan. – I am interested in the brain, instead of a body”. Sign words have determined those changes which occur to one of the oldest Fashion Houses after Giannini has held a post of the Gucci’s creative director. Today Gucci comes back to the roots.
“This is a new era, - has told somehow Giannini and rubbed her hands after the tremendous success of the checkered suits in style of the 50th. - We come back to our Italian roots: sense of humor, eccentricity, irony, carelessness”.
Successful partnership of Giannini and Li has led to the new page in Gucci’s history, including the income of the company. Only for 2006 sales of the company have increased on the average by 16 % and now for the first time in all history of the brand bring in return 3 million dollars.
Gucci’s clothes have changed, and this is clear at first sight. It became more casual, more sports and optimistic, and, it seems, it conquers the modern women tired from excessive emancipation and dissoluteness.

Christian Lacroix has never been a designer, who does his work partly. One of the most eccentric representatives of fashion industry, he always adored adornments – and the new collection is not an exception.
39 models of the collection became the special mixture of vintage Paris and unusual femininity: Christian Lacroix – one of that few designers, who succeed to create completely natural for an adult woman style, which would seem to be suitable only for girls-teenagers. New collection has marked the twentieth anniversary of Christian Lacroix as a designer and, predictably, doesn’t yield to previous collections by riches, splendor and variety of adornments.
However a new contrast present in the collection in the end expressed in eccentric models: frock-coats, clothes in military style over simple one-color clothes. The use of color is amazing: for example, cobalt- blue bolero with ostrich-plumes over very bright satin dress with finishing of corsage of saturated-black color; or red-beige mantelet with the fur finishing over a shirt in style of the twentieth. Dresses from the black lace «Infanta» and clothes «Josephine» from chiffon demonstrated all of that designer’s love to embellishment. The fashion show was closed by the British model Lily Coul in the amazing clothes of fiancee from gilded tulles with embroidery over the silk with floral patterns.

So-called “gladiatorial” sandals were popular for several summer seasons, and have become one of the most preferable kinds of the summer footwear on a flat sole. However no trend can last endlessly and this summer popularity of “footwear of gladiators”, most likely, at last comes to an end.
«The second breath» for such footwear has given the spring - summer 2007 collection from Balenciaga Fashion House in which designers of a brand have included the gladiatorial sandals decorated with set of glittering details.
The majority of stylists agree that such sandals do not suit short women. However the pair of sandals as an alternative to usual slippers can be bought for quite prosaic purposes such as a going to supermarket. Topshop, for example, offers a line of models for such daily routine - sandals of the brand are quite democratic at the price and the silvered leather and thin thongs make footwear rather stylish.
This summer gladiatorial sandals with the Т-shaped thong have come in fashion: they can be seen not only on usual women of fashion, but also on the representatives of the Hollywood hangout. However such models are risky enough for women with a wide foot. Besides, varnished leather, so popular among handbag’s designers, is again in a fashion, but this time, it became the usual material for creation of gladiatorial sandals.
Gladiatorial sandals from fashionable brand Anthropologie look as footwear, extremely worthy the fashionable Amazon: simple, with a minimum of details, but incredibly stylish.

YSL’s creative director Stepheno Pilati is convinced, that his new more democratic clothes line named Edition 24 will have the big success at a progressive youth audience. «We have tried on purpose to create models for more broad audience of fashionable woman, younger ones», - declared the designer who has invited for an interactive photographing popular photographer Nick Knight. During the whole 24 hours on July, 15 in the Internet to the address www.showstudio.com inquisitive audience could observe the process of master’s work, emotional Stepheno Pilati’s gestures and graceful pas of the American supermodel Jessica Miller.

According to Pilati, he created the collection, being inspired by the modern girls with rather democratic lifestyle, who got used to a freedom of movement and easy and tripping conversation.
Official launch of a new line will take place in Paris on September, 15 - then official site of the Fashion House YSL.com will display once again the Nick Knight’s photosession shot on July, 15.

True ladies really need a few noble, quiet and fascinating with their beauty and quality things. The handbag of ruby color from Versace will match such a role.
The ruby handbag from Versace is so good, that you fall in love with it at first sight!
Elegance and dignity are felt from noble dark red color of a handbag with true ruby shine on leather decoration. Ruby color and fleecy surface of the main part of an accessory give the sense of antiquity, and large silver garniture and other details only strengthen this sensation.
Handbag is decorated with the big round silver medallion with Versace logotype, and inside is upholstered with a beautiful black fabric, also with firm logotypes. Inside there is a big pocket and small one for a cellular phone. The bag itself is zipped. To get this one and, for example, an elegant evening handbag - clutch of metallic color will be enough for any woman of fashion for the current season.

Italian fashion brand Braccialini has its own trump card – it is an ability to joke easily and elegantly using design. Amusing handbags as cars, sunflowers, bees are popular among customers of more than 30 countries of the world. From “beach” they have straw handbag of glamour bright red color, or a black one with a scarlet starfish - really for fatal beauties!
Not looking at the name, Miss Sixty has no relation to 60-th because it has been founded in 1989. As well as its other “colleagues” on concern - Energie, Killah, Murphy&Nye, this American brand is a symbol of active lifestyle, however, unlike others it is more focused on young and cheerful women.
Mysterious name Car Shoe is simply explained: in 1963 the founder of the trade mark, Gianni Mastille has created moccasins with a convenient sole specially for driving the automobile. Since then a lot has changed, the trade mark has changed hands and now belongs to practical Prada owners, however convenient footwear and dandified handbags for those who like to travel are still Car Shoe’s strong point.

Nothing we wait for with such a passion, but summer! We agree to view as its embodiment only sea, beach and everything connected to it. This is a light dress over a swimming suit, a straw hat on a head and a beach bag in a hand …
The beach handbag has its initial differences: it has the form of a basket, as a rule, round knobs, and can be decorated with bows and roses - the more thoughtless, the better!
Straw is a classical material for a beach handbag, variants however are possible: from rude flax or a cotton cloth - up to various synthetics.
The main thing, that this handbag should keep off all thoughts of a working character, leaving place for typical holiday fuss: “which swimming suit to choose today” and “where to have a dinner in the evening”. If these conditions are met, any handbag can be considered a beach one!
 
Young brand Juicy Couture combines in its goods ironic kitsch with other “pretty things” with a serious practicality. What a nice idea – to strap a mat to a beach handbag!
