//"A Visual Assault"

Meadham Kirchoff's fall 2010 collection was much different than anything they'd done before, deeply influenced by what the design duo felt at the time.  Known for their dark palettes and streetwear, the pair strayed away from that with a collection full of lace, color, and stunning fabrics. Inspiration came from the romantic era, "bias-cut 30s Hollywood gowns," and the need for "drama" in their collection. 

I even noticed a bit of Indian influence, with what looked like beautiful beading on some of the fabrics, bright threads used, all of the bangles, the tassels, the crowns, and all of it style flawlessly.  I give this collection high marks, because it was risky for Meadham Kirchoff, but it was executed well. Oh, and that it also seemed like there was some Comme Des Garçons business going on. 

More fall 2010 reviews coming, school has been hectic this week!

//Creatures of the Wind

Creatures of the Wind FW10. Ultra-classy, yet still young and fresh. 

[and i'm pretty sure that majestic gold backdrop is by Confetti System, major plus]

//Candelabra

Nicholas Kirkwood for Rodarte FW10. Kirkwood never disappoints for Rodarte. Now we have a close-up look at the shoes, that we couldn't really see from the runway shots.  The shoes are almost like a bootie, with mixed fabrics and leathers, with a candle-wax type heel going on. The heel reminds me slightly of a few of the Miu Miu shoes from FW07, what do you think?

//Daks

 

Daks FW 2010.

Perfect British tailoring at Daks, sheer collared shirts, sweaters, jackets, pants, and other fine pieces were shown in a classic neutral palette of khakis, grays, and blacks, and paired with crew socks and brogues (total obsession with the gold pairs).  This collection looked like a mix of perfect school uniforms, that I would gladly wear to school in a heartbeat.

//Chanel Stares Into Your Soul

Watch this video of Chanel Spring Couture, it focuses on the details of the collection, and the models pretty much are staring into my soul, you'll understand after you watch.
