THE SECRET OF EVERLASTING CLASS BY RALPH LAUREN

Sometimes the clean and polished, often minimalistic looks are hard to pull! If your imperative in the design sense is the classic with the simplicity you have to explore further and further trying new things without disturbing your general aesthetic vibe. Well, this kind of beauty in design has been nourishing Ralph Lauren for ages an so successfully! His name has become an alternation and the synonym for America casual style but this style always has that clean and high elegance twist. Whether the word is about items which correspond perfectly with the everyday elegance or the high glamour which can be worn on the red carpets!

Seems that in his latest Resort 2019 collection Ralph Lauren has kept his fashion Idioma the same considering that Resort collections are more exploring friendly. With this collection like Ralph Lauren wanted to seal and capture what his brand is known for and it has become the status symbol for all those who nourish high fashion elegance. The classic cocktail dresses with the short sleeves and white collar with the accentuated waistline by a sleek belt or the ones with the ruffles textures which were loosed up with the masculine formed sweaters. The strong looks were delivered in the nightwear area. The chiffon cascading falling skirt paired with the formed black turtleneck and all of that topped with the lady tuxedo (another item inspired by the masculine moment)!

The chiffon could be seen as the favorite fabric or texture. I mean, we all remember that Gwyneth Paltrow Oscar moment and that chiffon layer covering her shoulders. Here the tendency for a chiffon moment was a little low key, more on a daily wear side appropriate. But here that was not the only choice. The shiny embellished sequenced patterns were included too just to give it all a refined and subtle note of the glam. With the choice of color which was emerging throughout the whole collection, the dark moon blue, this edition of Resort has captured the finest Ralph Lauren style for everyone!

The sense of luxury is definitely something which corresponds perfectly with Ralph Lauren style. But this luxury is not pretentious, it is not boosted with the logo-frenzy or lavishing patterns. No, the consumer of Ralph Lauren likes fashion and has plenty of styles, enjoying that refine design like you would enjoy a pure cashmere jumper or silky pijama! And who wouldn´t be a fan of that, right!

NEW CHAPTER IN HOUSE OF CAROLINA HERRERA

If you are a frequent fashion follower and connoisseur then you have probably heard about Wes Gordon. He has replaced Carolina Herrera after her last year´s departure. In the era when lots of fashion houses have been changing their creative directors, this thing has become a not so big deal. Little revolutions have become so typical for the fashion in general so this big/little change could appear not so important. But if you see the latest Resort 2019 collection which was made by Wes Gordon you could see the subtle differences and approaches in the Herrera aesthetic which look really promising!

Seems like the famous Herrera glamour has got a little toned down with the heterogenic approach to the clothes in this Resort collection. It has still kept that refined touch which is so important when we talk about Herrera style, but the changes have emerged in the total approach to design which is witty, playful, young, not so serious, still wearable and classy chic. This collection has all of that and even more. And it really strikes the design and creative boldness and brave approach to the legacy of house Herrera and gives to it all a totally new, fresh and exclusive touch!

Don´t get me wrong! There was and is nothing wrong about the legendary Ms. Carolina Herrera style. It has become an anthological and every-red-carpet-worthy name but the further step which has taken by Wes Gordon in this collection has really marked the future of Herrera house excited and for us, the fashion fans, something we are looking for in the future. But let us take a closer look to this collection, a milestone in every possible way for not just house of Carolina Herrera but for Wes Gordon, too.

The first look has come really strong and authentic. With the sharp and clean almost origami alike silhouette featured with the plain white interrupted by the black Japanese alike floral prints, the midi dress with the loosed up form really has shown a glimpse of what the whole collection was all about. The sharpness in form was continued on the jackets again boosted with floral patterns. The dresses have become the low-key glamour factor in totally another way. With the simplicity on the volume and a little drama in the textures like chiffon ruffles, silky and organza waves, florally pierced stiff cotton this collection really have brought us so many amazing looks and pieces!

One thing which falls in the eye is definitely the colors. Especially the tendency for all monochrome ensembles. Seems that Wes Gordon likes the monochrome looks and it really appears amazing on the airy and in the move playful dresses made from lightly falling one thousand layers. And yes, the lightness is another thing what catches our eyes. The more structured silhouette of Herrera which was toned down in the casual mode by the white blouse stuck into the gown alike dress, here is totally missing and we don´t really care! The lightness here has kept in the colors, materials and in the general approach to the philosophy of design.

This variables of colors, of textures and silhouettes, have occupied our fashion mind and we simply can not wait for Ready To Wear collection which will be displayed on the next New York Fashion Week. And in Carolina Herrera, they can be satisfied too. A new chapter has begun in the most grandiose yet effortless way and we simply love it!

What do you think about this collection? Do you like this new design by Carolina Herrera and do you think it would be on the same quantity level as the work by Ms. Herrera herself?

THE PERFECT SUMMER DRESS BY CYNTHIA ROWLEY

You can tell when a designer has that one item which is a constant inspiration. Style evolutions were made in the jackets, skirts, pants but if you ask Cynthia Rowley her first and everlasting love was, is and will always be a dress! Or better to say the dress! By choosing this concept of dress as the favorite highlight and motif we can assume in which way the style will go on. The more fluid and romantic, with the ruffles, happy colors and vibrant prints. Well, all of that we see in the latest Resort 2019 collection by Cynthia Rowley and although her signature may look like a repetitive, we still get little surprised of what kind of diversity Rowley has pulled out this time!

This Resort collection has had that summer vibe with the easy and fluent silhouettes, the light textures and vibrant colors. The wow effect was hidden definitely in the casual glamour which it can be pulled out during any daytime, when you go to work, strolling around doing your errands and looking effortlessly beautiful. And that is the pure strive and drive which is so typical for Cynthia Rowley style. She understands the contemporary women but she doesn´t want to throw them into the all-casual style story. And in that sense, her design has that bittersweet melancholy and nostalgia.

The stunning maxi dresses which could be easily pulled out like a high glamorous gown, the simple complicity of big ruffles falling easily, the vivid colors like yellow or pink, or that all around the red midi dress. The textures are something for which you need to have a perfect eye if you want to deliver the collection based usually on the dresses. Cynthia Rowley likes more cotton alike ones because her looks have the imperative of everyday casual glam! The more silky and satin fabrics were in this collection present too on the long dresses which were seen as the nightwear ensembles.

If you are a fan of the pure classic style with the modern interludes with the dress as the imperative item, and if you want that the dress companies you all day and it is still suitable to be re-build or re-style into the glamorous night look then this collection is for you! Chic and bold, simply beautiful, but little sassy and witty! Well, who wouldn´t like this collection, right!

What do you think about this collection? Which dress do you like the most? Which is your all-time favorite item in your closet?

DRESS LIKE A CELEBRITY BY BALMAIN

When we think about Balmain we think about high glamour and exclusive almost total luxury approach to the style with the pure star-dust references. One thing which is accentuated in the Balmain aesthetic is that it is all about being in the center, the "all eyes on me" kind of way and that is not a bad thing. Glitz and glam are the trademarks of Balmain which Olivier Rosteing builds consciously alluring that the Balmain woman likes the frenzy everywhere she goes. If one thing could be considered as the constant highlight for this fashion name then that is definitely a celebrity alike style which screams not just glamour but joy of (high) life.

If you think that Resort collections by Balmain have on a display the pure summer vacay romanticism, well you are wrong! The all-around concept of glamour was part in the latest Resort 2019 collection which was inspired much more by the crazy summer nights on the posh music festivals and exclusive pool parties. Just the glimpse at the first three looks of the collection reveals that "go big or go home" kind of style vibes. The uber-rich big ruffles on the mini skirt, the wide and bold shoulders in so typical Balmain mannerism, the shiny nylon alike textures... As you can see more is more and it has corresponded perfectly with the ultimate Balmain aesthetic.

Kim K. embellished dress which all of the fashion connoisseurs know has become the standard part of the modern Balmain. And although this item was included in this fashion widespread this look in this playful and heterogenic collection appears rather plain and so elementary. The more excitement was hidden in the tropical/Cali palm tree prints on the linen textures which have given the polished maritime aspect to the whole concept. Or the mustard monochrome ensembles featured by the collision of beachwear and ultimate "cotidian" glam. And if you thought that was the peak of it all, just scroll down to see the visual climax of it all and what glamour is all about!

The witty choice of mirror alike textures paired with the simple blacks just to tone it a little bit, the wide spectrum of patterns like pepita ones, washed ripped jeans featured the classic spin of a blazer on the top of it all. The silhouette which this time is more retro alike with the 80-s spirit on the mini dresses and the 70-s on the trousers. One thing which has become a constant motif lately and looks really refreshing is the knitwear which in the case of Balmain is far from the coziness and casual wear. Even those ensembles which look like they are made from the refined form of fishnets have successfully kept the stylistically high factor. The collection was rounded up with the strong sophisticated but very seductive night glam which has stepped almost in the light extravaganza train!  
Balmain has a very strong concept and vision of his consumers and their expectations. You will never see too casual pieces in their collections! Balmain rigorously goes for the ultimate glamour and that could not be everyone thing but we must admit that Balmain knows how to dress like a celebrity! Their clothes will put you in the spotlight of every party with style and pure chic! Strong women who like to have fun is the credo in Balmain and many of us could relate to that!

What do you think about this collection? Do you like this glamorous style and Balmain aesthetic in general?

Thank you for the attention!
