NEW YORK FASHION WEEK REPORT

spring summer 2012 collections

PREEN by THORNTON BRAGAZZI

It was a ladylike affair for Preen's

Spring Summer 2012 collection,

featuring pixellated prints in pastel

tones. Accentuated waists, knee

lengths and tailoring were the order

of the day with multi coloured

pastel prints. Whilst the styling was

prim and proper, Preen's Spring

Summer 2012 collection infuses

geometric prints with frills and

crochet, balancing the collection.

“We were looking at Virginia Wolf,

and wanted to create a collection

with that sense of heritage, but

make it very modern,” said the

husband and wife duo.

JASON WU

Now famously known for being

Michelle Obama's go-to

designer, Jason Wu Spring

Summer 2012 collection did

not disappoint. Inspiration was

drawn from the late fifties with

couture shapes. Whimsical

fluent fabrics complimented

geometric floral prints. Wu has

created a Spring Summer 2012

collection that is fun yet stylish.

We adore Wu's looks:

effortless outfits with bed hair

style hair. On our wish list are

the pop art monochrome floral

print items which were

designed in collaboration with

KAWS.

New York Fashion Week this season was like no other. Anyone who was anyone lined the front rows and stepped

out in style to witness Spring Summer 2012 trends unveiled before their eyes. Kindred Sole Edition New York

Fashion week reports from the catwalks with the hottest designers giving you the insight into next seasons trends.

DIANE von FURSTENBERG

This was one show we couldn't wait to

see the results from. Diane von

Furstenberg is chic and confident

especially with print and colour.

Spring Summer 2012 was no

different. Each look was strong and

sleek on its own but when they came

together they were equally one. We

like everything from the blue fine

geometric print look to the bold green

white and blue head to toe look.

Casually sophistication came in the

turn of tailoring. Colour Block still

seen at Diane von Furstenberg

however for Spring Summer 2012

with softer pastel shades.

PRABAL GURUNG

Fab prints - check, fab colour -

check, wish list items? We think so!

The colouration seen at Prabal

Gurung was exquisite. Purple,

white and black tones in graphic

prints on dresses are delightful for

Spring Summer 2012. As well as

soft green tones used on Tailoring.

Prabal Gurung Tailoring was sharp

with printed trousers styled with

colour block blazer as seen at

other NYFW shows. Sheer fabric

and printed silk garments were

aesthetically pleasing yet maybe

not so practical - What do you

think?

DEREK LAM

Derek Lam was another designer who

embraced colour for Spring Summer

2012. From orange, yellow blue and

white and through them all into the

collections mix taking the colour block

trend of last season into Spring Summer

2012. Longer lengths were the order of

the day, styled with thin waist hugging

belts to really elongate the figure. We

love the abstract top to toe look - will this

be in your Spring Summer 2012

wardrobe? Sixties architecture of Palm

Springs was the inspiration with simple,

elegant lines in a variety of colour tones.

Styled with sleek hair do's, all eyes were

on the garments.

LONDON FASHION WEEK REPORT

spring summer 2012 collections

London Fashion Week is known for being at the heart of fashion, embracing young

British talent and creating fabulous diverse trends which we show off to the world.

The Spring Summer 2012 shows were no different. Designers embraced colour

throughout London Fashion Week and the use of print was extra-ordinary!

BURBERRY PRORSUM

Over 1500 guests attended the Burberry

Prorsum Spring Summer 2012

Womenswear show in London’s Hyde

Park including Sienna Miller and Rosie

Huntington-Whiteley. The colour palette

included forest green, plum and mustard

and wintery under tones. Waists were a

focal point with belts and high waist

skirts. Burberry Prorsum is one of the

most recognised British heritage brands

and its Spring Summer 2012 collection

embraced this effortlessly. A seventies

twist appeared in the style of prints. The

signature Burberry trench coat made

another appearance in both turquoise

leather and woven check.

TEMPERLEY

Spring Summer 2012 draws

inspiration from the silver screen,

namely Grace Kelly in High Society

and movie stills of Michelle Pfeiffer in

Scarface. The resultant collection is

elegant, sensual and ultra glamorous.

Soft tuxedo looks are given a twist.

Fluid, lean lines have been juxtaposed

with draped kimono capes in

oversized floral prints. A recognisably

Temperley colour palette of creams,

soft nudes, pistachio and lemon is

shot through with graphic navy and

white. The result is a decadent, high

octane collection of timeless pieces

that are integrally Temperley in

celebration of their tenth anniversary.

CHRISTOPHER KANE

Among the front row or 'FROW' at

Christopher Kane Spring Summer

2012 show was Kanye West, Eliza

Doolittle and Erin O'Connor. Spring

Summer 2012 collection at

Christopher Kane was smothered with

floral print and embellishment. The

collection had an overall refreshing

look about it. Print styled with print

was created effortlessly and a trend to

watch for S/S 2012. Printed outfits

were then styled with matching print

chunky rubber sole sandals. Bold,

glistening floral prints on soft organza

dresses were our favourite's.

ERDEM

Signature floral prints were the key

look at Erdem S/S 2012 show set in

the ballroom at The Savoy. There

was a strong tailoring presence with

dresses, trousers and skirts all cut to

perfection. Colour tones were fairly

muted from blue to yellow with the

floral prints making them appear bold.

Laser cut lace added to the femininity

of the show especially when styled

with busy prints. Detailed collars were

seen on dresses and shirts. Skirts

and dress hemlines finished at the

knee for a lady like look. Nude lace

dresses made an appearance

towards the end of the show which

balanced the collection.

HOUSE OF HOLLAND

Described as 'Pastel Punk's', the

House of Holland collection has

done it again - made a strong, bold

collection that will inspire many.

Henry Holland is known for being a

celebrity and paparazzi favourite

with his front row including Eliza

Doolittle, Pixie Geldof, Nicola

Roberts and Lorraine Kelly. The

catwalk was decorated with giant

leopard print which was later seen

within the collection. Key looks

included high waisted garments,

paint and bleached jeans and bold

prints. Signature House of Holland

tartan prints in purple and blue was

used in tailoring.

"The most attractive make up trend this winter for me is the nude lip trend.

It's when you have on a lip colour that looks natural like light pink or even a

very light shade of brown. Nude lips also go really well with smokey eyes

which is also on the trend report this A/W! At the 2011 vma the red carpet

was full of celebs rocking the natural lip look such as Selena Gomez, Kim

Kardashian and Beyonce.

I would recommend Maybelline colour sensational lipstick in colours coral

fever and 125 shimmer pink to kindred sole readers who would like to try out

this trend." says Bree at Cosmetic Collision

''This season is all about boyish

beauty. Subtle tones echoing those

naturally found on bare lids took

centre stage on catwalks.

Skin was impeccable; teamed with

bold brows and masculine hair for

an androgynous look. I will be

keeping my lips clean and my nails

matte for an edgy twist. Think of

Agyness Deyn and Carey Mulligan

for inspiration. Time to man up and

get on trend.'' says Kia Simpson at

Make Me Up Kia

"Autumn Winter make up trends for the season are all

about Lady Like Glamour. The red lip is key and the

smokey eye has a new twist with metallic shades. "

We wanted to get the

inside gossip on the

A/W make up trends

from the girls in the

know: Make Up

Bloggers! Take a look:

''Bold and daring lips are a must for the coming A/W season, so for those of you who like to make a statement and

stand out you’ll love experimenting with reds, corals, violets, and even black coloured lipsticks. I absolutely love this

trend because a vivid lipstick can add an extra edge to any outfit, with a bright pink or an intriguing violet you can

instantly make a plain dress the star attraction. However, this trend is certainly not for the faint hearted. So be brave,

go bold, and ooze confidence with a bright or vampy coloured lippy.'' says Kerry Harrison at The Doll House

Bold Lips at Nichole Farhi

''My favourite A/W make up trends are the sassy, mod-

inspired spider lashes that have been gloriously ruling the

fashion runways! To get the spider lash look, use a black

thickening mascara that also lengthens, such as Dior

DiorShow Mascara. The trick is to apply the mascara by

holding the wand both horizontally and vertically.

Here's How: Hold the mascara wand horizontally against

the roots of your lashes and wiggle the wand as you guide

it towards the tips. Do the wiggling motion from roots to

tips from the outer corner to the inner corner of your

lashes. Add a second & third coat while the applied

mascara is wet. With the tip of the wand, use the excess

mascara there by running it vertically through your lashes

from roots to tips and applying a second coat to only the

tips of the lashes. Use a lash comb to keep mascara from

looking clumpy. Finally, coat bottom lashes with two coats

of mascara in both horizontal and vertical angles.

Emphasize the dramatic look by adding white eyeliner to

the eyes inner rims and keep the rest of your makeup

simple to let your eyes be the centre of attention!'' says
