Simbolismo Religioso in Fashion

Slide02

Very soon I am going to visit Florence, the magical capital city of beautiful Tuscany! As I am now in a Dolce Vita mood, so a bit inspired with Dolce & Gabbana that may not feel so sweet life for a moment, I thought of the religious symbolism in fashion- not of this season, but from 1960 year when Cristobal Balencaiga designed his bridal dress with nuns head dressing inspired hat to Les Novices where Brigitte Bardot stars as a newcoming female nun that just don’t real know what to do and sins a lot there and there… I thought of Sevillas Santa Semanas holiday and the splendor of Vatican church that I truly love! And if Church women would wear Alexander McQueen Pre-Fall 2013, then it would perfectly match at Brugges nunnery. Although it all sounds very good, Kate Moss at W Magazine showed herself as a satan or a witch with sharp claws and vampire teeth… this editorial is very spooky! Just as Kristen McMenamy at opening and closing the Giles AW13 show, wearing a super scary make-up and anglican inspired gowns. As I am not really a religious person, I hope this post won’t make anybody offended. Well, it’s fashion!

The Anglican Romance

I’ve got a serious fuse about Alexander McQueen Pre-Fall, Menswear and Womenswear AW13. Sarah Burton’s Anglican inspired romantic dresses for Pre-Fall are pure gothic chic with the minimalistic ends and beautiful details. The menswear was full of strained glass print full of oranges and reds. And the smokings looked really great! But best of all was the ten look collection of the main line at women… The fur, feathers, pearls, leather… What a beautiful collection! I really love the Sarah Burton gothic influence, and the hairstyles are really great… More soon…
