It's that time of year. You're cleaning up your folders, doing renovations, bringing up the resolutions. Yeah, yeah, blah, blah ...
But it's here.
My second look from Amsterdam is finally online (one year later, check the first one here).
I paired my fave faux fur coat from the upcoming brand Not your basics with sweatshirt and sneakers.
It's comfortable, warm and feels cool.

RUNWAY REPORT.....Milan Fashion Week: Gucci Spring/Summer 2018

September 20, 2017 0 Comments



Gucci Spring 2018





WHAT: Gucci Spring/Summer 2018. Ever since 2015 when Gucci named Alessandro Michele as its Creative Director, he has transformed the brand, bringing in a vintage/geek-chic/retro/eccentric fabulousness that makes fashion editors and street fashionistas alike, all shake with excitement. This "Alessandro Michele" look--or "Gucciness" was in FULL GLAMAZON mode at the latest offering from the Italian fashion house.

Disco Inspired--Photos from late 70's NYC nightclub scenes including Angles, Infinity 1977, La Farfalle 1978 and Studio 54 1977





INSPIRATION: The inspiration of the show involved "The act of creation...as an act of resistance", influenced by antiquity as it read in the show notes. This was highlighted by the runway stage which included to-scale replicas of tombs, statues, classical artifacts of ancient Rome, India, Egypt and Greece. The runway itself was supposed to represent the Tiber river (see the blue color!). But, when one finally saw the collection, it was more late 70's/early 80's High-Glam Disco than Grecian Goddess draped gowns...











Gucci Spring 2018





SEEN ON THE RUNWAY: 108 total looks! There was high teased & feathered hair, bedazzled 80's track suits, jumpsuits, 70's jigsaw puzzle leather bomber jackets, UBER large and wide shoulder padded jackets, lots and lots of SEQUINS(!), "grandma" sweater suits, "GUCCY" bags, 80's braided headbands, jeweled "GG" pins, "Devo" sunglasses, Asiana influences, medieval costume tendencies, snakes, bunnies, tigers, birds, horses...a potpourri of decades and style influences. 





COLORS: Pink, canary yellow, blue, violets, chartreuse, neon hues.





Collection Highlights:

Alessandro Michele also paid homage to Elton John and the stage costumes that were created for him by Bob Mackie. Especially the shiny tracksuits which were a staple for the flashy performer (above right).

RUNWAY REPORT.....Gucci Resort 2018: Collection + Video!

May 30, 2017 0 Comments



Renaissance Ladies: Gucci Resort 2018





WHAT: Gucci Resort 2018. Gucci Creative Director and current "Fashion Boy Wonder", Alessandro Michele showed another fabulous collection for the Italian fashion-and-accessories luxury house of Gucci. 







Alessandro Michele of Gucci







Renaissance Inspirations: (Clockwise from the top) Raffaelo's The Madonna della Seggiola, The Palatina Gallery/Pitti Palace, and Simonetta Vespucci





INSPIRATION: The collection, which was shown at the sumptuous Palatina Gallery in the Pitti Palace in Florence Italy, combined elements of the Renaissance-rich locale as well as Michele's usual UBER groovy parade of hipster/vintage/luxe thrift store/60's psychedelic meets 70's Rock & Roll no-fashion-rules mantra. Michele, in fact, dubbed the collection "Renaissance Rock & Roll" and used the beauty of Simonetta Vespucci, Botticelli's muse, as inspiration.







GG Love: Gucci-brnaded maxi tote bags, stockings, dresses--Gucci Resort 2018





SEEN ON THE RUNWAY: Elaborate embroidery, bold Renaissance/Psychedelic prints,vintage looking joggers with turbans, gold leaf head-crowns, pinks, brocades, flora and fauna, wolf-and-lion motifs; maxi Gucci tote bags; LOTS of Gucci logos--on suits, skirts, fur coats and even a "cheeky" take on the counterfeit logo culture with his "Guccy" logo.
