Georges Hobeika Autumn/Winter 2011-12 Couture

A personal favourite at Paris' couture showcase this year is Georges Hobeika's whimsical collection. I love the corset bodices, cascading skirts and gorgeous details. These dresses are so beautiful that they'll probably bring me to tears if I ever find myself in one of them.

London Fashion Week A/W 2011 - 12: Favorites

I know that London Fashion Week concluded awhile ago, but being my busy busy self, I haven't been able to update thefword as quickly as I would like to. Anyhow, here are some of the collections that caught my eye:

Mulberry

"An über English collection, inspired by hedgerows and traditional English pursuits – hunting, shooting, fishing."

Jonathan Saunders

Modern artistry, with flashes of color combinations that's sure to be my inspiration for the rest of the year.

TDF (to die for), amazing collection. Loved the black dress (see second last photo) especially. The minimalism is totally appealing to me.

New York Fashion Week A/W 2011 - 12: Proenza Schouler RTW

"Clothing that took direction from Native American blankets – we also researched early American textiles and construction and included elements of both in our designs, but with a modern edge." - Designer McCollough on his collection.



































"In my opinion, the most outstanding collection of all that was showcased at New York Fashion Week."

New York Fashion Week A/W 2011 - 12: Rodarte RTW

"Reminds me of a farm-girl on the prairies, with floor-grazing sundresses in flaxen, muted gold and sky blue."
