S/S 2013: Picks from the Runway

image

I really want to kiss the foot of whoever invented the internet and how the era of technology progressed. Since I am not, yet, fortunate enough to sit in the front row of the shows, the web has definitely saved a seat for me for them to view. I have selected my favorite picks from S/S 2003 Collection from different designers.

Little fierceness is what the women of today always have and will always need with this little leather sheat dress by Jason Wu.

image

Charlotte Ronson proved that peplum are still a go go in 2013 with this water-nautical inspired look.

image

Different patterns of the same family definitely do collide, always. Black, white and gold dress by Marc Jacobs. 

image

Who says looking sexy and smart is that hard to achieve. Jill Stuart reminds me of the Victorian era with this whole schmear.

image

Victoria Beckham isn’t just Posh Spice and gave ‘posh’ to this fresh, crip basic white and spiced up with diagonal textured cuts. 

image

Plains and Prints, Conservative and Provocative, yes, Tim Weiland goes for balance with this casual-sexy outfit.

image

With the patchwork of different denim, Philip Lim defined the epitome of grunge look.

A little wifi can really bring us to places, do they? So, those are few of my picks for S/S 2013 straight from the runway, or internet. So, Who are your favorites?

A little bit of “Belle de Jour”

… before a deep slumber. 

Belle de Jour (1967) french film who’s gist is about a woman, Catherine Deneuve, who spend her days as a prostitute while her husband is at work. 

Spellbinding and Iconic of equal measure. A good way to jump start my way back to the history. 

I just hope I don’t fall asleep while watching — one thing I’m good at though.

Meet the physical criteria for Anorexia

-Twenty years ago the average fashion model weighed 8% less than the average woman. Today, she weighs 23% less.

- Ten years ago plus-size models averaged between size 12 and 18. Today the need for size diversity within the plus-size modeling industry continues to be questioned. The majority of plus-size models on agency boards are between a size 6 and 14, while the customers continue to express their dissatisfaction.

- Most runway models meet the Body Mass Index physical criteria for Anorexia.

- 50% of women wear a size 14 or larger, but most standard clothing outlets cater to sizes 14 or smaller.
