十件不是人穿的COUTURE . HUMANLY IMPOSSIBLE COUTURE PIECES. THE BEST OF COUTURE FW19

Written by : Monique Ying @monying_my

2019 couture 的伸展台是一埸狂歡盛宴。經過一系列的研究,我發現了一個很有趣的現象 – 現時很多設計師(e.g. Elie Saab) 開始探索世界各文族的文化,有中國的、日本的、非洲文族的,還有摩洛哥的。 設計師們對這些文化的了解愈來愈成熟,亦為我們正名。 Christian Dior, Givenchy, Valentino等大牌子以它們的超凡作品證明了創意與靈感永遠也不會消逝,同時亦表現了它們將永遠推翻時裝定義的精神。

排除高級定製時裝週的精彩細節,以下是我於2019秋季couture中十件最喜歡的作品。

2019 couture runway truly is a blast. After some decent research, I found that it is interesting a lot of designers such as Elie Saap are trying to explore on ethnics, in Chinese, Japanese, African and Moroccan cultures. Their perceptions on these cultures are getting more mature and somehow, giving us justice. Big Brands such as Christian Dior, Givenchy, Valentino also proves us that creativity and inspiration never dies by their extravagance designs, questioning the definition of fashion at all times.

Despite all the thrills from all details, here are ten of my favourite couture pieces from the 2019 couture runway.

FASHION SHOWCASE : GUIDO. A PETTY CROOK PT. 2

…If fortune favors the bold then Guido’s satorial senses brought him a few opportunities. Opportunities which he promptly messed up. A hustle involving importing fakes and flipping them for a pretty penny would be his eventual downfall. Not know for patience, Guido skimmed profits off the top and spent lavishly on the high life. Living beyond his means, thinking he was untouchable, the lesson, when it came was a hard knock one. One that Guido did not survive. Of 6 million stories, a tragic tale from SPITGAN Magazine.

FASHION SHOWCASE : GUIDO. A PETTY CROOK PT. 1

Guido. A petty crook from Fort Lauderdale. A misguided admirer of local mafiosos, he fashions himself after larger-than-life TV characters. Guido spends more time in front of the TV dreaming of ‘that Life’, than learning the rules of the streets and crafts of the trade. Never developing the work ethic or the favor of luck to realize his goals, Guido, a petty schemer, only has the taste to look the part. If fortune favors the bold then…

PLASTIC AT SS18 WOMEN’S WEAR, N-Z

膠的流行是我最不能明白,卻又紅得發紫的一個TREND。Chanel、Valentino、Balenciaga……太多的品牌要「膠起來」。夏季穿膠來的好嗎?單從我可怕的幻想中可以想到那些汗流浹背的場境和陣陣美妙的汗味。不過在夏天的雨季中,確實沒有時尚感十足的雨衣吧。要不來一件防水膠連身裙吧!先看看N-Z的品牌中我們喜歡的「膠品」吧。


Mary Katrantzou :: 這季鮮豔的顏色也是很紅的。主要我喜歡她的顏色配搭,黃和灰的組合總是高調中帶和諧。


Valentino :: 正好是一件時尚感十足的雨衣。
