Fashion – Why Are Fashion Freaks Walking Human Oddities

Why is it – that trendy fashion freaks are labelled as such? .Well let me tell you a little secret in the way of a – wake up call. What we need to do at this stage is first decipher what the word freak means. There can be many different renditions of the word – but if we are talking fashion then that is a horse of a different colour as the saying goes.
If you have been called a freak at some stage in your life then the person on the end of the abusive tongue may see you as a sort of human oddity. The word can also denote an image of unusual or deformed vision.
Fashion is a serious business where we all like and love to keep up with the latest trend but however in saying that, you need to sit back and ask yourself – are you going over your budget or are you next in line for an onslaught of abusive remarks all because you are following the fashion traits of today. Listen up guys and gals, how can any one fashion designer dress every individual on the planet of every different shape and size and still get it right?
So there you have it in black and white – not everyone will be ideally suited to the platform shoe, denim dungarees or the up the bum thong that is in fashion – could this be the answer to why a person is called a fashion freak. Another matter you have to address is why you dress up in the latest fashion creations, is it for you or for others.
Regardless of what is said a great many people will still choose to go on wearing the fresh new designs that grace the rails of our fashion boutiques – and rightly so – on this I agree, but only if that particular design is suitable and able to take that inner beauty from within, so that you can inject that warm beauty to glow on the outside while wearing the in thing (fashion garment).
Listen up ladies and gents if you want to make an impression by wearing garments as such then get it right. There are some folk than can pull off wearing any outfit even if it appears that it was purely designed for Coco the clown – but unfortunately if you are one of those people that will evidently portray the look of a clown regardless of what you do to alter it – in the way of adding accessories, then do not fret. Remember beauty is in the eye of the beholder so let the beholder be you when making decisions on what you feel will look right as well as comfortable..
Decisions made to put the latest designs into the high street boutiques – were those made by that of clowns them self. (Fashion designers)

Fashion – Today’s Colour In Fashion Will It Suit Your

Fashion – Today’s Colour In Fashion Will It Suit Your Complexion

Enlarge Image
Fashion – Why do women and beauty products work well together, the answer to that is quite simple, cosmetics make you look beautiful and women want to be beautiful so there you have it – a match made in heaven – the perfect duo
Today`s fashion and latest shades in lipstick is no guarantee to looking beautiful if you are not feeling good about yourself.

It`s a funny old world – the fashion world. Take those glamour models that grace the catwalk with the latest in fashion design – only to go and mess the entire look of the whole outfit with an expression of depression along with a ridiculous unbalanced walk like that of a woman who has just downed 10 pints of lager – now where is the beauty in that I ask you.

Remember never to imitate the pose of a model on a night out with friends because that friendship may just cease and heaven forbid if you are looking for a date with the opposite sex – then the chances of that happening are zilch. If you want to impress then it is all down to how you dress. You will always be at your best if you feel good. A smile radiates beauty so regardless of what the fashion it is you adorn – be sure to smile and that is half of the battle won in feeling good and looking beautiful

Why is it you wear the same colours when you go out? Why is it you feel that a certain colour is not ideally suited to your complexion even though it is in fashion? Well now is the time to change all that. Todays fashionable colours are just oozing to expel your beauty within. Positive results are guaranteed after you have boosted your confidence into looking beautiful with the latest in fashion styles and colours.

For example if you are not partial to the colour green or orange up next to the skin, well that is fine, but, at the time you decided this colour was not for you, did you ever give it a minutes thought that it was just that particular shade of green that you were not comfortable with. Remember there are 40 shades of green, now do you get my drift. Now as for orange – a colour that does need to be given much thought behind for a person`s skin tone – but if you like orange then dress it up with accessories to compliment the shade itself – this will work wonders.

Just by changing the shade of one particular colour and style of dress can be the start of finding the real beauty within. Your inner beauty may have lain static for far to long all because you took for granted that the first bright lime green luminous blouse you ever tried on was not for you, therefore leaving you resisting future fashion garments in green, But did you ever consider replacing that lime green blouse for pretty cowl neck musky jade shade.. Also a change of hairstyle can alter your whole image along with the colour that you banished from the wardrobe.

It is sad – but there are many women who are confused and believe that a certain colour does them no justice – when at the end of the day it may have been their choice in the shade.

Famous French Fashion Designers

Paris is often labeled as the unofficial capital of the fashion world. Fashion designers, models, stylists, and in general, all fashion enthusiasts, flock to France to see and experience the latest designs in the world of fashion. The contribution of France, and in particular, French fashion designers, towards the fashion industry has been phenomenal. Here we showcase some of the legendary French names in the world of fashion designing.

Christian Dior
The name instantly rings a bell, no matter whether you’re a fashion freak or not. One of the best known fashion designers of France, Christian Dior was inclined towards art right from his childhood. He started his career in fashion, working as an assistant designer to Robert Piquet. Post World War II, Dior rose to global fame with his new revolutionary design which was appropriately named the New Look. Dior dominated the fashion world until his death in 1957. He is credited for launching and commercializing French fashion on the world stage.

Pierre Cardin
Another well-known name, Pierre Cardin shot to fame mainly due to his innovative and space-age designs. Pierre had an affinity for geometry and it reflected in many of his designs. Pierre Cardin came into the limelight when he launched his new creation, The Bubble Dress. He is also credited for being the first fashion designer to launch a unisex range of clothing, as well as the concept of street fashion.

Chanel
Chanel’s tryst with fashion began as a seamstress during her childhood. She later moved on to selling ladies’ hats, after which she launched her own line of clothing and the famous perfume ‘Chanel No. 5′, which is popular even today. Chanel’s claim to fame, among other things, is the novel cardigan jacket that she presented to the world. The legendary little black dress, which later became a must-have in every woman’s wardrobe, also happens to be one of Chanel’s signature designs.

Hermes
Hermes, a household name in France, is fondly referred to as the ‘grand-daddy’ of all French fashion and luxury labels. It was started by Thierry Hermes way back in 1837 and was initially into the business of manufacturing horse saddles and harnesses. Over the years, Hermes has grown substantially, establishing its stronghold in a wide range of businesses such as designer boutiques, world fashion, home decor, fashion jewelery, handbags, shoes as well as internationally known fragrances. Hermes is credited with having introduced the revolutionary concept of the zipper to France, which in due course of time, became a rage all over the country. Today, Hermes boasts of an elite and celebrity clientle which includes the likes of Madonna, Nicole Kidman and Elle Macpherson among others.

Yves Saint Laurent
Born and brought up in Algeria, Yves Saint Laurent moved to France during his late teens to pursue art and fashion. Initially, he began working under the legendary Christian Dior and later progressed to becoming the art director of the firm, following Dior’s untimely death. Saint Laurent eventually launched his own line of fashion clothing and is credited with innovative creations including the smoking suit, see-through blouses and the iconic jumpsuit which had a die-hard loyalist in musician Elvis Presley. Yves Saint Laurent continued to rise up the ladder of success and eventually became known as one of the best fashion designers the world has ever seen.

Christian Lacroix
Christian Lacroix is one of the new age French designers who has made it big in the world of fashion. Lacroix is known for entering and reviving the Haute Couture industry at a time when other streams of fashion were threatening to overpower its supremacy. Lacroix, best known for his exotic range of designer clothing and his modern creation of the puffball skirt, is quite a favorite among Hollywood celebrities including the likes of Christina Aguilera and Nicole Kidman.

Over the years, French fashion designers have always been at the forefront of the fashion industry, and by all means, it looks like the trend will continue well into the future.

Eco-Friendly Fashion Footwear Cruelty Free Fashion Shoes Every Woman Must

Eco-Friendly Fashion Footwear Cruelty Free Fashion Shoes Every Woman Must Have This FallWinter

Most Vegan women like myself dread of the thought that over 35 million beautiful, intelligent animals are killed just for their fur or leather on their backs (and that’s only the wintertime!), but that doesn’t stop us from being every bit as stylish as our carnivorous counterparts. Except for the fact, that we only want cruelty-free fashion, we have the same desire to collect dozens upon dozens of sandals, sneakers, loafers, flip-flops, knee-high boots, and other footwear for our shoe wardrobe. Ten years ago, this would have been a challenge – one that would seem almost impossible as all vegan shoes practically looked the same.
Nowadays, finding cruelty-free shoes isn’t as hard as it sounds. Now more than ever, companies are beginning to cater to those with a cruelty-free fashion sense and are now offering a wider variety to choose from. As this trend continues to emerge, the only challenge you will have is figuring out how many shoes do you really need. You’ll have to begin asking yourself how many of them do you really love, and how many fit well, complement your fashion style and are versatile enough to serve multiple purposes.
Here are 5 fall/winter fashion shoe styles to help you create a cruelty-free shoe wardrobe so all encompassing, so perfect, that no matter what the occasion is, you’ll have just the right eco-friendly shoe
1. One pair of weather-protective footwear.
If you could only buy one boot in your life, an eco-friendly, air-seal range boot like the 14-Eye Boot from Vegetarian Shoes is the one to go with. If you spend a good amount of time outdoors, go with two pairs. Air-seal range boots sporting steel tipped toe and a sole made from rubber tires will provide you with that everlasting quality you need and want.
2. One or two pairs of fashion boots in a medium or dark neutral.
These leather alternative boots are classic enough for work-wear yet sexy enough to add an edge to jeans and an everyday tee. Top-of-the-calf boots with a flat heel are one of the cold weather season’s hottest looks, but are surprisingly in-demand even as the weather grows warmer. For those of you who love the Engineer boots, but want something a little more fitted, the Biker boots are perfect! When you’re feeling a little “rebel”, wear them as biker boots. When your style is more classic looking, just take off the buckle, instantly providing you with simple, comfortable boots that go with everything.
3. One pair of chic looking boots
Almost knee high boots like the Aurora, give you a chic look with straight skirts and classic-cut trousers. They can be worn with bare legs or opaque winter stockings. Plus, they work well with formal and near-formal wear, they add sophistication to jeans, and instantly dress up a denim skirt and cardigan like nothing else can. You can also get the same look with Alta style that is only 11” from the top of the shoe to the bottom of this eco-friendly fashion footwear. The upper is made from the highest quality synthetic micro-fibers while the lining is usually comprised of extremely soft synthetic micro-fibers or fleece.
4. One pair of neutral-colored casual boots for the weekend
A woman can never go wrong with classics such as the Amy boot. Your weekend casual cruelty-free boot should have an extremely soft and flexible sole making it extremely comfortable for all day wear. Make sure your casual eco-friendly boots exteriors are made of “leather” like synthetic micro-fibers giving you that stylish look, while the interior is made of a soft cotton lining and a generous foot bed that will accommodate your feet.
5. One pair of attractive non-leather sneakers.
The fall time is the perfect time to run around the track at your nearby park, and enjoy your surroundings. Whether your eco-friendly non-leather sneakers are made from hemp or synthetic micro-fibers, they are go well with your tracksuit, yet hard-working enough to perform at the gym. The best athletic/sporty shoes are the pairs that have an extremely supportive EVA sole, and a thick padded tongue.
If you follow the above tips you will create the perfect eco-friendly fall/winter woman’s fashion footwear wardrobe, that no matter what the occasion is, you will have the perfect non-leather shoe. Remember, no one can have fashion without compassion.

Dutch fashion design at the Barbican

The House of Viktor & Rolf Dutch fashion design arrives at the Barbican 18 June 2008 – 21 September 2008 at Barbican Art Gallery.

This summer Barbican Art Gallery showcases the work of Dutch fashion designers Viktor & Rolf. This is the first time in the United Kingdom that an exhibition has been devoted to this highly influential duo. Over the past 15 years Viktor & Rolf have taken the fashion world by storm with their particular blend of cool irony and surreal beauty.

The House of Viktor & Rolf presents each of the designers signature pieces from 1992 to now, shown in a specially commissioned and characteristically theatrical installation that dominates the entire Gallery. Highlights include pieces from Atomic Bomb, 199899, featuring dramatic mushroom cloud-like cushioned necklines and Russian Doll, 19992000, in which a single model was painstakingly dressed by Viktor & Rolf until she was gasping under 70 kilogrammes of exquisite haute couture. For the collection Bells, 2000-2001, models emerged from a smoke-filled space in clothes embroidered with hundreds of brass bells, so they were heard before they could be seen.

Drawing on the Dutch tradition of silver plating a babys first shoe as a keepsake, the climax of Viktor & Rolfs Autumn/Winter collection of 200607, was a strapless wedding dress with a wide petticoated knee length skirt, silver plated, including even the brides bouquet.

Designer Fashion Accessories The Infinity Scarf

As far as designer fashion accessories go, things are always changing. The newest accessory that first popped up in the fall is now seeing it’s way into spring. The infinity scarf, also referred to as the eternity scarf, is all over the place. Both high designer retail stores and budget conscious clothing stores are carrying some variation of these scarves. They are essentially a scarf that never ends, it’s just one continuous loop.

Most people have gravitated toward the infinity scarf because it means less of a hassle. The scarf will never slide off your neck or come peeking out the bottom of a coat. It can be easily wrapped a number of ways, whether loosely just for looks or a few times for warmth. And the material ranges from heavy knit or wool for the winter to now light materials like cashmere and cotton for the spring. Patterns are as endless as the scarves themselves, which makes them a very bold accessory.

But what a lot of people don’t realize is the right scarf can be styled more than just around the neck. An infinity scarf has a lot of options. One popular way to wear it is as a hooded scarf. You can wrap the scarf around your neck once, then take the back of it and bring it over the head and wear it like a hood. This is great if you feel that your head or ears are getting chilly, or even add some sunglasses for a very glam 1940s movie star look.

It can also be worn as a shawl. You take the scarf and unfold it completely, then bring it behind you and place your arms through and let it rest on your shoulders. If the scarf is a little too loose this way, you can always pin it at the front with a brooch to keep it in place and give it a more fitted look.

Infinity scarves can also be used as regular clothing. They can be easily transformed into a skirt or dress. Just make sure the material is thick enough to not be see through or consider a slip underneath. As a skirt, you can fold the scarf in half, wrap it around your waist, and belt it to stay put. A dress is similar as well. Fold it however you like (you can really vary the hemline of the dress depending on how you fold it) and belt it in the middle.

The infinity scarf is so versatile it’s worth purchasing for the upcoming spring season. You’ll find a ton of different ways to wear it that will make this accessory more than worth the price.
