DanniCullen Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Okay, so I made this topic because I love Fashion Week. And I thought this would be a good place to discuss it. (The models, designers, clothes, or just general information about it.) But, Yeah, so New York Fashion Week ended last night. (It started on the 7th) And today London Fashion Week just launched. I'm so excited! I've already seen some images and stuff from the Bora Asku show. Paris FW starts on the 27th. & Milan FW starts on the 21st. Even though I'm British, I should love London FW the most. But for me, Paris is always the best. I guess this can also be kind of like a Model ID section too. For models who've done Fashion Week? I don't know. The topic might not even be popular, but oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanniCullen Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 Bora Asku | SS12 | London - (First show to start off LFW SS12) The show started @ 1pm UK Time. Which was exactly one hour and 24 minutes ago, and pictures are online already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe > Average Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I've always liked it, but been ashamed of my lack of knowledge . I was going to move it to the fashion shows section, but I guess it can stay here since its general discussion . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valerija S. was my fave newcomer, she did 22 shows! I've always liked it, but been ashamed of my lack of knowledge . I was going to move it to the fashion shows section, but I guess it can stay here since its general discussion . You should keep track of this thread then, Joe. I think NYFW was terrible, the only collections i liked are Carolina Herrera, Michael Kors, Oscar de la Renta & Ralph Lauren because even Marchesa was fugly this season London is kind of meh to me haha, but im excited for Milan & especially Paris Nothing wrong with London FW. :persuazn: Just kidding, but yes. Paris & Milan. NY Fashion week was 'Eh'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking forward to Christopher Kane, Acne, Erdem and Marios Schwab at LFW, but it's nothing compared to Paris and Milan! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squeege Beckenheim Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Oooh, fun thread! I'm also crazy for Fashion Week. Actually, I thought the casting in NY this season was very unpredictable which is not a bad thing at all. Though there were some bad collections, well let me share my Top 3 of bad collections in New York: 1. Michael Kors :x - These brown/ sandy colours and very weird shaped outfits. Man! 2. Anna Sui - The make-up & hair was very pretty but the clothes? Like a little girl made them. 3. Rag & Bone - I usually like their collections but this time it was pretty ridiculous. Not wearable at all and some pieces were just ugly. (I didn't like Derek Lam, too.) My favorite collections of NY: Calvin Klein Prabal Gurung Oscar de la Renta 3.1 Phillip Lim Cushnie et Ochs (+ Alexander Wang, Altuzarra, Marchesa & Marc Jacobs) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baby.Jude9 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 ^ Excellent list, Squeege. And you're right about Anna Sui. I'm generally a fan of her free, hippie ways in most of her collections, but this season she was just all over the place. Too Betsey Johnson for me, and I'm not a big fan of Betsey. :x Also, I'd add that Herve Leger was pretty bad this season. I'm usually a fan of their stuff, but this season ... I think it was the fugly boots at the show. And BCBG was another one that was just... bad. And weird. And for as much as I loved Donna Karan, DKNY wasn't great either. Here's my list of some of my favorites: Rodarte Donna Karan Jill Stuart Marc by Marc Jacobs (Others: Milly, Jason Wu, Alexander Wang, Zac Posen) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squeege Beckenheim Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Ooh, I totally forgot about Marc by Marc Jacobs, I loved that one too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clauds Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I so agree about Anna Sui, this collection was just too terrible, almost painful to watch ... The clothes were terrible, the hairstyle, the make up, it was just too wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onlyyoung Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 London Fashion Week! Jonathan Saunders Richard Nicoll Marios Schwab ^ I can't decide whether I liked this collection or not... I have a feeling those dresses with the sheer mesh skirt (seen at Marios Schwab, Prabal Gurung, Julien McDonald etc.) are the latest craze. What do you guys think about LFW so far?

Squeege Beckenheim Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Normally Milan is my favorite city of the 4 because I really like a lot of fashion houses there. Anyway, is it just me or was the collection at Gucci pretty ugly? Oh and I have to say that I didn't like many shows in London this season but the one show that I really loved was Richard Nicoll : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squeege Beckenheim Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Milan wasn't that great this time in my opinion. Going to post some favorites though. One collection I really liked was Jil Sander I did like Alberta Ferretti, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
