That was such surprise this morning to see the Celine Resort 2014 on their site! As Phoebe Philo didn’t let the collection to go out within others like Dior and Chanel because of Zara’s copying, Celine Resort 2014 was uploaded silently today at night. As nobody knows anything about it, by accident I saw the colledtion… and wow! The pre-collection is nothing like SS14- it’s kept in beiges, linen fabrics, fur and python. Yeah, fur. The furs were bigger than the ones in the AW13 collection! And everything out of mink… for Spring. The python leather vest looked pretty cool; the nurse dresses in pastel colours were cute; sweaters, sweatpants and coats were classical and simple. Very Celine and chic. Definitely this impressive collection is one of the best for Spring 2014… and the birkenstocks are again back in fashion!
Python
NYC. Creatures of The Wind SS14

Surprise, surprise! NYFW just started! Full of energy and fresh designers, the first day was all about… style of New Yorker “too-cool-to-care” style, that is always bright and not banal! S, here I am writing about the first, selected by me collection of New York Fashion Week (last year we started with Alexander Wang!), Creatures of The Wind. This young label designed by duo of “cool” boys is a definition of youth and coolness of NYC people. It is a mix of python prints, colour blocks, flower embroideries, loose trousers and straight forms that look casual and at the same time extremely elegant- but with fantasy. What I seriously loved about this season at CoTW were the fabrics- beautiful, a bit rustical rose embroideries mixed with super modern materials… And the structural skirts looked like art pieces on the models silhouette. This is a extremely cool collection. Can’t wait for more NYFW that is always exciting!

Beginning. Balenciaga AW13
After waiting about four months without knowledge of how will new Balenciaga under the wings of Alexander Wang look like, today in the morning, in Paris, the show began. The whole setting was in a old, but renovated Parisian building with white marble, huge mirrors, black and white tiles and spiral stairs. It gave a feeling of Balenciaga at time of Cristobal. So taking the seat with Olivier Zahm camera the show begins!
It all begins with a typical Wang touch- a elegant t-shirt, black trousers, fur and mostly casual elegance. But thanks god Wang didn’t do it all in a New York way- indeed it was all so Paris! Alexander Wang continued the sophisticated minimalism of Ghesquiere with super cool fur sweatshirts that looked like white marble and black dresses with open back… Sexy but delicate.
The furry sweatshirts are this seasons my favourite! They look so street style and modern! Mixed with laced leather leggins and a leather head decoration it is great! Only Wang could do it! And what about the shiny elegant dress code? I see it already on Carine Roitfeld, the real queen of french elegance!
The new model of bag is for sure the one from python witha a classical closing. It is a comfortabel handbag that is easy to wear but at the same time ideal for every event! The hit of the show was for sure the greenish jacket with shirling on sleeves and the complete of sweater with skirt that was toatally embroidered with something that looked like paisleys! Shiny!


Congratulations to Alexander Wang! Really the collection was great! I think, that Balenciaga from now on will not change diametrically, but it will be more sporty and hopefully better quality!
