For his eponymous label’s Spring/Summer 2014 collection, British designer Gareth Pugh showcased his signature gothic style with a science-fiction twist. The silhouettes are sculptural, clinging onto the body with winged shoulders or high necklines for a dramatic effect. The color palette for the new season offers black, white, grey, silver and a sampling of turquoise. In addition to the alien-esque looks, Pugh also delivered more pared down pieces such as wide-legged trousers or slinky gowns fit for evening wear. Head gear is almost a requirement for a Pugh runway show at this point, and for spring, the headpiece in question is made of ostrich feathers.

Chanel Métiers d'Art vs. Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show
December 2nd, a date to remember: it’s my birthday!!! :3
Ok, no joking, but the fashion world has given me a beautiful gift this year: both Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show AND Chanel Métiers d'Art were held on my birthday: it’s immediately fashion frenzy!
This time the two brands delivering two of the most important fashion events of the year decided to present their collections in Europe: VS chose the cosmopolitan and frantic London, while Chanel went for a more elegant and regal Salzburg, the city were Mozart was born, in Austria.
The fashion world started wondering about how the models were going to split between the two shows when, some weeks ago, it was announced that the two events were going to be held on the same day. But I have to say, I think both the shows had their great amount of supermodels equally distributed, so at least from that point of view, it was fair game.
Yet, it’s impossible to compare them as they’re basically the opposite of each other: while Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show is bubbly and lively, Chanel Métiers d'Art is all about artisanal work, outstanding quality of the pieces and women being sophisticated. Pretty obvious after all.
Victoria’s Secret had its usual share of live music from popular singers, and while the ‘angels’ were walking down the runway, some famous artists sang in front of the audience of the Earls Court Exhibition Centre: Taylor Swift - who seems to have convinced herself of being one of the angels, as it’s already the second time she makes her appearance at the show and she really looks like she’s really enjoying it - the new everyone’s favourite Ed Sheeran, Hozier and especially the highly anticipated Ariana Grande, who really nailed it on the runway - and she was enjoying it as well really much.
Among the models instead, you could obviously see the 'expert’ angels - such as Adriana Lima and Alessandra Ambrosio - as well as the newbies, such as Grace Mahary - to be honest, I really don’t like her; I think she’s too thin and doesn’t look like a model at all. She always looks tired :s
I loved instead Cindy Bruna and Jourdan Dunn - they’re always awesome and sexy as hell!
But after all, who were the real protagonists of the show? The singers, the models or the lingerie? Hard question to answer. I guess what makes the VSFS so special is that is a TOTAL show, it’s not only about fashion, it’s entertaining and suitable for every taste.
Passing to the Chanel Métiers d'Art show, we go to the Eighteenth Century Schloss Leopoldskron Castle in Salzburg, entering a whole fairytale world made of princesses, duchesses, queens.
What to say? Karl Lagerfeld really leaves you speechless. It’s amazing how he can always, constantly put Chanel into what he does without creating the same things over and over. And the choice of Austria was not casual: the tirolese inspiration was really strong, obviously reinvented with tweed and the Chanel jacket - can there be a Chanel show without the tweed jacket? - in a profusion of bows, flower petals, corduroy capes, and princess-like dresses.
Kaiser Karl was obviously accompanied by his muse Cara Delevingne - I can’t stand her - and of course he managed to convey the idea he always conveys: Chanel remains after years and years one of the most powerful fashion brands - or THE most powerful? - on Earth. And we’re happy with it.
Stay tuned because the surprises for my birthday (yay!) are not finished, and there will be a very big one that I’m going to tell you when I write about the last lesson I had at the university with Missoni. DON’T MISS IT!
