A Simple Approach

Hola sappers! para no perder la costumbre vengo nuevamente después de un tiempo (no me juzguen). En esta ocasión quiero contarles un poco sobre un artista plástico Hondureño, esta persona se hace conocer bajo el nombre: ¨Legan Rooster. El pasado 10 de agosto en casa Quinchon, un espacio cultural en el centro de Tegucigalpa, que promueve el movimiento artístico y cultural dentro de la capital hondureña, ¨Legan¨ presento su mas reciente collection de obras.  Técnica mixta sobre lienzo y la indudable creatividad del artista, fueron los elementos que una ves plasmados en sus obras, deleitaron e hicieron a mas de alguno reflexionar sobre lo que en estas estaba plasmado. Estas obras, son testimonio de la expresión humana y la manifestación especifica del artista. Photo by JP Lagos En palabras de Legan: ¨Cada quien es el rey de su reino. En esta muestra se puede apreciar la idea que cada ser humano es quien reina propia vida. Cada segundo que pasa trae con sigo un sin fin...

Change is good. The decision to rename the house´s creative director was a definitely a good one. Now Lead by Clare Waight Keller, the worldwide famous design house makes a fenomenal comeback ( not that it ever went away, but that´s how it feels) to the runway with this minimal yet intricate and beautifully tailored collection. Cest simplement merveilleux! This collection was simply marvelous. Stunning, ethereal pieces walked down a beautiful mirrored runway in the a Parisian palace garden. Keller, took a retrospective look into the house´s archives and come up with this beautifully executed collection. I personally enjoyed most the minimal approach of it all, it was quite mesmerizing and refreshing to see this minimal yet eye catching pieces walk down a couture show. Were we usually see pompous displays of tailoring, Keller gave us an array of mixtures that simply took my breath away. The minimal tailoring mixed with intricate embroidery and appliqués details were definit...

Extravaganza! The always exuberant house of Dolce & Gabbana once again puts on a magnificent, vivacious show, infusing us all with it´s #DGDNA. This beautiful shimmery bejeweled, star studded collection, gives us the classic D&G high end style mixed with all the currents trends in the unique way only Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana can with their ever thriving style and vision. Shimmering, flashy fabrics mixed with precious fabrics and perfect tailoring, make this, yet another exceptional collection from the duo. Stars and celebrities from all media outputs play a huge part in the new D&G culture, the Viner, funny guy, turned model; Cameron Dallas one again opens the show, and so followed by Monica Bellucci and of course the one and only Naomi Campbell, who shuts down the runway and many other renown models and celebrities. There isn´t really much to be said about this collection, but to emphasize it´s greatness. The duo can take all the right elements an...

This Versace runway show was too good to only show pictures of it, so I decided to do something different and show you the video instead, so here it is, get ready for the best 12 minutes of your day. Donatella sure knows how to put on a show, year after year, season after season, we see one great show after the other, one magnificent collection after the other, and this year was of course no exception. A trend setter and visionary, Versace, puts together yet another remarkable collection, one filled with color, sparkle, and lots of style. The show was great from start to finish, the music was up beat and you couldn't help but feel the beat and kinda want to step into that runway yourself. The models walked one right after the other in a continuos kaleidoscopical display. Starting from grey, black and white, the designer takes you literally in a progression from the previous season with long, oversized coats paired with baggy, trendy jeans, and beautiful printed Versace shir...

Ben Sherman The designer showcased a collection filled with comfort and sports inspired tailoring. This collection was the perfect match between current trends like: stripes and checkered fabrics and some retro and sports wear inspired fits. The clothes were perfectly fitted, classic tailoring with a modernized approach. The collection was very minimal and colorful in its own accord, some slightly tropical prints were included as it slowly evolved into a more neutral zone of colors. The tailoring was classical and minimalistic, some slightly oversized bomber jackets were included as well as some sports and bowling bags and backpacks. Modern and youthful, this collection is perfect for the modern men, a man that takes comfort in classics, yet likes a bit a of color and playfulness when it comes to clothing.  Daniel W. Fletcher Avant garde meets comfort. Fletcher presented this astonishing collection, which is the perfect combination of creativity and boldness...

The fashion industry is taking a turn, and a turn for the best I think, as the brands are now stepping out of the scheduled itineraries of  ¨fashion week¨ and showcasing their collections on their on time.  Alexander Wang recently did this and YSL did it as well, and although it was closer to the London Fashion Week Men´s, and sort of the kickstart event, it is still something that I wanted to highlight, as I think this will lead many brands to do the same and brake patterns.  On to the good stuff now. Anthony Vaccarello, YSL´s house director kickstarted this season with a bang!.

¨Enchanted Forest¨ is the latest collection from ODLR, a Fall, Ready to Wear (RTW) collection under the creative vision of the house´s new directors: Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia. With this, their third runway takeover under their creative orchestration, they show their capacity to lead this household brand in the right direction for the modern and eclectic fashionista.  Simple and familiar silhouettes alongside classic cuts, yet very rich in texture and delicately embroidered fabrics and floral prints inspired by the Elizabethan era tapestries, this collection abides by the classic and flattering shapes the ODLR house has been know for, yet utilizing modern trends and design techniques that appeal to the modern and more youthful profile the duo is luring into the brand´scope.
