Best dressed 2018

2018 has come to an end and it's time to proclaim the best dressed of the year!

To me the best dressed of 2018 was Tracee Ellis Ross, star of the sit-com Black-ish and daughter of the evergreen diva Diana Ross.

Let's start with some of her looks..

Man! I feel like a.. man!

 Now it's men's turn! The last couple of weeks, fashion was all about men and what they will wear next spring/summer. From London, passing through Milan, to Paris, the man presented by the designers, took inspiration from past trends.

Next stop: Paris

After London and Milan we're finally in Paris, just in time for the first flashes of spring!
Let's get staraight to the collections, because this fashion week gave us a lot to take note about the upcoming trends in fashion.

La Vie en.. Haute Couture

Yes!! Haute Couture!! Haute Couture is literally the translation of our dream into fashion.
This Paris Fashion Week was pure genius and elegance! I really don't know which designer was the best because they outdid themselves. From Versace through Chanel and Dior and up until Elie Saab and Zuhair Murad.

Best dressed of 2015

Finally 2015 ended! I'm really happy that 2015 is behind us because I can say that this year was the worst of my life. I really hope that 2016 will be nicer because I need some rest.
Buuut let's talk about what was good in 2015.. Fashion!
2015 highlighted some personalities with a great taste for what concerns clothes, fashion and style.
 
Selena Gomez was one of them. She developed a very strong and confident style that I appreciate a lot!
She's young and she needs to dress in the right way for her age so her style is modern and a little bit street-chic and then she wears these amazing pieces of high fashion.. wow! That's exactly how I would like to dress daily if I was a little bit more confident about me.

 

 

 

 

Paris, c'est chic

It's the international woman's day week and also Paris Fashion week!
What a better way to celebrate the best designer 's view of women  through the latest fashion trends?
It's Paris, the most romantic and chic city in the world and it's fashion week! I'd pay a ton of gold to be there.

Let's start with Balmain. This year its collection is very colorful and despite I am a "always wear black girl", I really liked it. The main colours are green, yellow, purple, orange and black, which are fall colours that really trend in in the recent years.
The sartorial line is clean and flowing but also geometrical.
The main accessory used in this collection is the high waisted color belt with golden buckle.

I have to admit that I was disappointed by one of my favourite designer Elie Saab. Ok, this a Fall/Winter collection and I must have dark colours in it, but I don't know, I feel like he held back all that "wow" that generally characterized all his collections.
This collection was really dark and classic. I mean.. where are the sparks?

 

Also Gianbattista Valli was a little bit subdued and dull. Maybe it's because of the dark colours in relation on his last lighter ready-to-wear collection.

 

 Valentino used his customary and signature classic and clean lines. The collection was characterized by a very elegant black and white. I really liked the little black dresses with lace and fringe details.

 

 

At the end of the show appeared two super models! Derek and Hensel in all their glory! Great idea to promote Zoolander 2!

 

Chanel decided to invite us to Brasserie Gabrielle for lunch. Karl Lagerfeld proposed the classic Chanel's tailleur but today it is updated with modern shapes on the sleeves or on the skirts.

 

 

  One of the designer that I usually understimate is Rochas, that this year created a really nice, simple and delicate collection which I loved.

 However my favourite was Saint Laurent who created a rock punk 80's collection. It is genial! This collection mixed elegance and grunge style, classic and modern, rock and chic, male and female. Just perfect!

 

 

 I really appreciated the sheer and pois shirt! So chic!

That's all for now.


Talk to you soon
