Milan Fashion Week

Which one's bigger? Milan or New York Fashion Week? My answer would be Milan. Those who follow my twitter would have probably noticed how I spend hours stalking every updates from the runway. It's been amazing to be able to receive real-time updates by Vogue, NY Times, Harper's Bazaar, you name it via twitter. So these are some of the looks that take my breath away.

Bottega Venetta. A classic, red carpet worthy look, definitely a class act.

Moschino. Who would think spectacles can enrich your black tie look?

Dolce & Gabanna.

Frankie Morello with heels bun. Well the yellow skirt is gorgeous.

Prada. Miuccia claims whether "innocence or freshness ... Not a girl dressing like a lady, but a lady getting more innocent."

Versace.

Raf Simons for Jil Sander.

Fendi. Karl once said, "My sisters were sent away because my mother thought they were boring. I was not boring.” True that.

Roberto Cavalli.

At last, Gucci.

Frida Giannini dscribed her fall collection for Gucci as ‘hippie chic.’ But even when the house is aiming for hippie chic, it can’t help but be the most opulent, gilded, accessorized hippie you’ll ever see. Quoted by The New York Times.

This season is about bold vibrant colors, rich fabric, decadent fur, lots of sequins, everything that yells opulence.

Can you get to my thought?

Another evening, another little black dress. This one is from Adela Rose. What I like about this dress is that it is very simple yet gives a playful edge through the extravagant frill details on the shoulders.

Photobucket

It's always perfect to wear nude heels with your LBD.
