Givenchy chanelling Bowie





I recently came across this old photo of David Bowie at nme and it instantly made me think of the Givenchy SS10 jacket. It is practically identical to the one Bowie is wearing, isn't it? Perhaps Riccardo Tisci was a huge fan of him...

Fashion from A to Z











All images from www.nmyv.com

There is a new font made out of the most fashionable key items every season. Shoes, bags, gloves, dresses everything that can be cut out from magazines gives form to the "Fashion Font". Her name is Yvette Yunjung, Yang and she was born in Seoul, Korea. She is a very talented graphic designer who has worked for Korean Vogue and is currently a student from St. Joost, The Netherlands. The first time she did a fashion alphabet was in 2007 from the F/W collections. She believes tha "the image is the message" and this is why she created an image font that is more meaningful. These fonts don't need spelling, you get the message simply by looking at them. Looking forward to more magazines collaborations

Ralph Lauren "Crystalize" me please!!!!







After "The Attack of The Studs", during winter, comes the spring "Attack of The Crystals" (Swarovski most preferably). Never before have I been so excited about a Ralph Lauren collection as his latest for the summer of 2010. I mean he always has classic american style written all over but this...Amazing jeans, dresses and tops in an incredably laid back yet chic style that looked so fresh and at the same time wearable by all ages. And near the end comes the gem of the collection, a pair of ripped-torn out boyfriend jeans, completely covered in swarovsky crystals both on the front and back. Breathless. I cannot even describe how much I want a pair. "Crystalized" tank tops and dresses were there too. Sales are officialy starting tomorrow here in Greece-at last. Everyone says during sales you should invest in something classic, that will come in handy next winder too, perhaps an expensive brand you couldn't afford etc. I myself am not sure yet what it's gonna be. BUT I know I want a pair of white sneakers and a new pair of jeans, a t-shirt, maybe a nice dress and I want them all to be covered with little crystals!! Am I asking much? We'll see...
