John Galliano has been a controversial figure in fashion over the years, but Galliano of the 90’s is what made me fall in love with fashion. It wasn’t just fashion, it was art, it had a story, a mood, and transported you to a different time and place. It was magical and Galliano will always have a special place in my heart and will always be one of my favorites.
Dresses
Ms. Top Ten - Cecilie Bahnsen Spring 2020
in Ms. Top Ten
I’ve been loving the romantic, airy, voluminous dresses from Cecilie Bahnsen for a few seasons now. The just released Spring 2020 collection is no different. Just as beautiful as always. Below are my Top Ten picks from this season’s runway.
Dream Shoot: Ghosted
in Dream Shoot
I’ve been really loving the desert recently, probably because summer in San Francisco is generally cold and foggy and I’m craving the hot, dry sauna of the desert. Quite a few looks this season channeled the old-timey, western feeling that the desert can make you think of; a very Westworld vibe. What fun it would be to transport these looks back in time to the West that once was!
Dream Shoot: Valentino x Magic Mountains
in Dream Shoot
Valentino’s day-glo looks for Spring/Summer 2020 immediately brought to mind the beautiful art installation Seven Magic Mountains by Swedish artist Ugo Rondinone, which sits just outside Las Vegas. Both are beautiful, playful uses of color.
Badass and Beautiful
in Red Carpet
Nearly everyone woman who appeared on Game of Thones this season was nominated for an Emmy. The women, whether good or evil, became the powerhouses of the show this season and their strength and courage was shown both onscreen and on the red carpet. These women take risks, they are strong and don’t let anyone hold them back!
Ms. Top Ten: Ode to Thom Browne Spring/Summer 2020
in Ms. Top Ten
Technically, this is a Top Ten, but the detailing of Thom Browne is always so spectacular, I had to include some of my favorite detail shots. Tailored and nautical, with a generous nod to Marie Antoinette and French patriotism ; only Thom Browne could combine all this into a truly beautiful and whimsical experience. It’s hard to choose the best looks from so many astonishing creations, but I’ve done my best to pick my favorites.
