FROM BLACK TO GRAY

2013-14 FW RTW - Decor pictures - 001A tribute to the world (there are 300 Chanel shops around the world). The world loves french fashion and loves Chanel. The new f/w 2013 collection plays with proportions and movement. Mysterious, from black to gray with silver as jewelry. See the video below were Karl Lagerfeld talks about the collection, the models catwalk around the world and the person who hosts the interview (I think it is Garance Doré) is cut off on every question by Karl. I would love to have a talk with him, he is a great guy :) .

“FASHION IS S**T” – YOHJI YAMAMOTO

“Fashion is s**t”!

What do you mean Mr. Yamamoto? Could you explain yourself please.

WWD: After your Y-3 10th anniversary show in New York, you said that “in the world right now, fashion is s–t.” Can you elaborate on what you meant by that? 

“Let me talk like an old man. Young people, be careful. Beautiful things are disappearing every day. Be careful.…You don’t need to be [shopping at fast-fashion stores], especially young people. They are beautiful naturally, because they are young. So they should even wear simple jeans and a T-shirt. It’s enough. Don’t be too much fashionable.…The brand advertising is making you crazy. You don’t need to be too sexy. You are sexy enough.”

SWIMMING POOL BLUE, PINK FLAMINGOS AND PIN-UP GIRLS

The color for next summer…IT’S SO BLUE…and the new name “swimming pool blue”…sounds like good life…

Holly Fulton got it as well, the BLUE. The inspiration for her new s/s 2013 RTW collection came from a trip to LA, where she was for the first time earlier this year: “I was really struck by the saccharine optimism that permeates the place.”

The American Dream, it is back…! The pin-up girl, swimming pools…pink flamingos, lemon yellows and Sunset Boulevard, Instagram light and a skater girl.

The 60′s skater girl superstar Patti McGee was her muse (first professional female skateboarder in history). A blue-eyed blonde with a dream, fearless to compete against the boys, her bouffant of peroxide hair and a squeaky-clean sex appeal, the starting point for the whole collection.

And here they are, my favorite pieces from the new Holly Fulton collection for s/s 2013.
