modern inferno..


with his latest spring collection,richard nicoll channeled clouzot's unfinished film, L'enfer . rather a pretentious flick, it did have a rad wardrobe.L'enfer's unique European groovy-chic vibe was perfectly mirrored with its clothes that consist of baby-doll silhouttes mixed up with the 60's era's futurism. hence,mod & simplistic feminine lines permeated throughout nicoll's collection. his use of sheer fabrics & textiles with sheen also brought a romantic & relaxed  feel to his clothes. this is clearly a designer that knows how to marry film & fashion beautifully. 





love sheer mod..



keep mod modern with unperdictable materials like clear PVC/plastic..



my own version..:)

valentino's spring awakening..


florals for spring is definitely not a groundbreaking idea but the duo Piccuoli & Chiuri made it seem like it was a new concept. taking inspiration from the eighteenth century's " age of enlightment ", the light yet tailored silhouettes of their gowns & cocktails echoed the spiritual sentiment of that time. delicate,playful florals in cool blush tones & hints of sky blue sit perfectly on those airy gowns to create a feeling of beautiful  whimsy. the word,pretty, is a huge understatement to this collection. oh spring, i'm so ready for you..:)





bellissima..



loafers/slip ons..whatever you call them,they are the chicest way to toughen up a feminine outfit.


inspired..
