Tom Ford's Vintage Couture Show *imagines* plus Burberry Bespoke's debut!

Tom Ford... The most awaited comebacks of the year... And he did it in style! No press, No reviews of the collection, no live coverage... AND YET! He managed to get full publicity of the whole event- which btw, was just a bunch of his close friends and a private fashion show in *wait for it* old world style!
Talk about going back to the beginning of high street! He introduced each model and described each garment just like in the old days.. I'm talking about the 60's... He sure did bring back the magic and charm which fashion held in those days... Too bad for certain guests in the even who tweeted pictures of the event LIVE...
In an interview with Vogue, Ford said,

“I want fashion to be fun again, like it was in the ’60s. You couldn’t wait to get the clothes and put them on, and I think we’ve lost that. I don’t get the need for this immediacy. In fact, I think it’s bad. The way the system works now, you see the clothes, within an hour or so they’re online, the world sees them. They don’t get to a store for six months. In addition, all of the fast-fashion companies that do a great job, by the way, knock everything off. So it’s everywhere all over the streets in three months and by the time you get it to the store, what’s the point?”

Well, here's a look at Tom Ford Spring/Summer 2011. These picture will be in next month's Vogue shot by Steven Meisel. All the words which come to my mind when I see them are: classic. luxe. expensive. breathtaking. chic. time-proof. And you know what? All these are words ARE associate with Tom Ford. Kudos to him for bringing Classic back. In a real way!

But no matter what, the goal of a brand is TO SELL. And while most of the designers know and believe only that, there are designers like Tom Ford and Christopher Bailey who hold their own without letting go of their roots...

Speaking of Christopher Bailey, Emma Watson was the first person to actually sport a trench coat from the just-about-to-release Burberry Bespoke collection. Watson received it as a gift from Bailey for the premiere of her new movie Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. *like dying to watch that movie!!*

Vogue UK says,

Burberry Bespoke will be a new fully integrated, innovative digital platform, enabling the personalisation of the iconic Burberry trench coat.

Traditional Tales and Cut-Head Collab!

I got up this morning to see Priyanka Chopra on my doorstep wearing a Marc Jacobs… On the November Issue of vogue… As I settled in on my comfy chair with  my coffee, I almost spilt it… I CANNOT STAND that ugly nose job… Or lip job (Honestly, I cant even make out)… But though I hate to admit it, she is one of the few well dressed celebs in the country who CAN carry off whatever their stylists hand them!

Talking about Marc Jacobs... I died looking at the Vintage Sari Re-inventions… It’s so vibrant and *gasp* the styling is bang on! (The monogram tube dress is my fav *hearts*). It is contemporary and by the looks of the design I would know it’s an LV… It’s SO Marc! LV literally celebrated Diwali with all Indians world wide with this capsule collection… Apparently, the fashion luxe brand chose Rajeev Sethi who is the:

"first Asian artist chosen by Louis Vuitton to create special window installations across the globe as part of an on-going creative exchange, positioning traditional practices of skilled communities of India – on an international platform." 

 Vuitton promised "nothing but pure originality and cultural richness." And well, they have kept their word.

 Talking about word, a little birdie told me about the Lanvin + H&M colab… (I know I'm a little late about this one!) Pretty dope if I  may say so.

"With asymmetric necklines, ruffles and super-flattering, feminine silhouettes, the collection will carry all of Lanvin's signature trademarks with a pleasing H&M price tag", says Vogue UK.

 I have officially died and gone to fashion heaven! Fierce!


Fashion. Love. Peace.

Flipping through Vogue India (October 2010)

On the cover: The Erratic and gorgeous (mother of two??) Cindy Crawford in my favorite Balmain number... The gold sequined dress from their Fall 2010. line up.. Classy.

Blamain is a very clever brand. In a good way. EVERYBODY LOVES BALMAIN. Period. >>That period signifies the end. <<

I mean just have a look at their Fall 2010-11 Collection:

It's edgy, it's classy... Head turning. And I love the well structured shoulders! Pleasing to the eyes!! Love~

OK quick! Turn to page 312. AAhhhh... The god himself... Karl Lagerfeld (Who told me I'm not a model :( [I'm not fat, I'm voluptuous, Karl ;)] )... oh wait...I just realised... The Balmain connection, AGAIN! [obsession, I fancy :D]

Talking of which I just noticed some of the "not so Chanel" pieces from the Fall 2010 Collection. KARL!!! What happened to these? I thought you hated FAT. Your models are gonna be real upset with you, you know... :(... I mean what was your inspiration? Big-Foot?

If you can't imagine, here they are:

But try as i may I can't talk ill about your knitwear. As always I am blown off (not like Alexa Chung says it) by them... And I loved them Fur Boots, Karl...Muah!!

Oh and I almost forgot to mention!! My aunt went to New Delhi and shopped like mad and got me this Chanel beauty... Fall 2009 but whatev... It's CHANEL. It's  CLASS. And it's MINE! (Happyness)

Oh btw, doesn't Natalia Vodianova look absolutely gorgeous on page 320? A little birdie told me that she's a mother of three (O.M.G.) and has the perfect life (almost fairytale-ish!)... With great beauty comes great happiness *sigh*..

All in all I loved this moth's Vogue India (as usual a culmination of various topics in various Vogue internationals published till date in 2010 :P)

But yet, Happy Anniversary Baby! :) *sips martini*
