fashion Fall 2014: White Swan

Fairy Tales on the runway for f/w 2014: Dolce and Gabanna and the white Swan

Earlier we noticed that birds, all kinds, is the animal du jour on the runway for the Fall 2014 season. Well we do love swans so above another example of what a fashion designer can do with that bird…..

See more birds on this blog (for fall/winter 2014 at the ready to wear shows for women)

Fashion Tale F/W 2014: Bird watching

The Birds


Feathers are the main styling device for the designers, mixed with fur, wovens or knits, any idea you come up with for using feathers; just do it! Same goes for prints and allovers; birds, ranging from spring chickens to the peacock, all kinds of bird-varieties passed at the the fall 2014 shows.

The Bird Watchers


The bird watchers have to keep warm, for Fall 2014 they sure will, again lots of fur, styled more casual though. Combined with sturdy leather, preppy wooden buttons, or wearing a wax/rain-coat-feel outfit

The Snakes


The bird watchers have to watch out for the snakes lurking in the grass. Snake skin in bold colurs was often used this season, above at Tom Ford, Dsquared2 and Giorgio Armani. Snakeskin in transparent voile at Givenchy (and other brands as well)

The color chart is an obvious one: an Autumn scheme with fresher touches of yellow. “Forest” Green and similar neutrals are important, next to more vivid colors (as special accents for use  in snake skin items for example)

Fashion Fairy Tales F/W 2014: Little Red Riding Hood

Fashion Fairy Tales: Little Red Riding Hood. Yes! it’s time for dreams again at the Fashion Shows for Winter 2014. Little Red Riding Hood is stomping through the woods, not only wearing her cape. No, this season she owns more than just a cape, she’s wearing the killed bloody wolf on her shoulders as well! Coats and dresses made of red fur sure make do as really fancy showstoppers! Prints and patches of wolves, squirrels, birds, forests and the actual Little Red Riding Hood story are placed on her wardrobe as well.

On the catwalk at Miu Miu Little Red Riding Hood was portrayed in a more modern way.   Teenage girls on the road, could be in a forest, could be elsewhere, but this fierce girl is not going home!  She is on a mission or otherwise just walkin’ the streets. (We picked out the red outfits amongst the other primary colors and pastels to give our story more credibility. See the complete show HERE on style.com)

As for the color red: We suggest to the people in the industry to stick with accessories in red fur, knit and jersey or a little dress. (assuming you want to $ell)
