Elle US September 2011 by Laurie Bartley
Just this evening, after finishing my previous post about the latest trends for FW 2011/12, I was about to go to bed, when i have decided to quickly look through the latest fashion editorials and i saw one which left me astonished so i decided to share it with you - Jeneil Williams by Laurie Bartley for Elle US September 2011. Amazing photography, choice of colors and model (Jeneil Williams) who is probably among few models with such a strong face expression. It is a tropical storyline about the escape of the artist supported by the Brian Molloy (stylist) likes of Versace, Chloe, Max Mara and Balenciaga.
Enjoy :)
Enjoy :)

Trend report FW 2011/12
As the autumn comes rapidly, i think it is time to talk about latest fashion trends even though the summer is still taking over especially in my case (the weather in Milan would be quite warm until November) . This season, there are quite a lot of them, different in its nature so I would like to concentrate on the ones i prefer the most:
Tux
I cannot even express my joy when i realized that classical form of tux is coming back in fashion - minimal, 'no print', 'borrowed-from-the-boys, A-la Viktoria Beckham style along with the matching color, above the ankle, a little oversized trousers can work perfectly for both - everyday and evening wear.
Vogue China

Michael Kors FW 2011, New York streetwear

Spots
What can be more girly than spotty dresses? This season we see the interpretation from the diaphanous Gucci gowns to the complete 'spotty commitment' from Marc Jacobs.

Color Forms
And again fashion comes back to the 'geometry basics' like Ennio Capasa's collection has a definite recall from the famous 'Mondrian dress' by YSL from 1967. Structured colorful pattern wool jackets from Chloè or the minimalistic black/white garments from YSL represent the modern way of the 'print architecture'.

Steel chains
Rough, massive, one piece design which by itself can be seen as a
'too much' accessory, along with a simple minimal no print garment
is in its perfect harmony. The brightest representatives this season would be Phoebe Philo and Stefano Pilati who found great solutions in order to create the 'perfect accent' for their collections.

Italian shoe design.
'Slender legs, skinny calf ,narrow ankle' - these are the attributes of every 'donna italiana' which inspire and coerce the shoe designers for the creation of the masterpiece which is not just 'pretty looking' but, also, with my own experience i can easily say
'wearable'.
Giuseppe Zanotti, Sergio Rossi, Cesare Paciotti, Casadei, Pollini, Alessandro Oteri and many others are the bright examples of the incredible talent and the famous 'made in Italy' label. For the latest FW 2011 Campaign, Giuseppe Zanotti has found the 'Fundamental classic line' from Italian shoe culture interpretating it not only in a classical way but also with a more aggressive modern attitude still keeping the old proportions.
