HTC Meets Fashion

The HTC One advert for the launch of their new phone is a cool way to project the fashion industry into other markets, showing the power of its influence! How cool is it taking a fashion shoot while skydiving 200 km/h? I'd say that's one hell of a job!

Exposed!

Thierry Mugler

Walter van Beirendonck

For a cheaper alternative whilst my stay in London I had gone to COS (believe it is British design) which have great classic and up to date trends for affordable prices. I had tried on a light transparent shirt which works well for the beach but sadly did not look great on me (since I am more slim). However it could look great on another! (see image below)

Festival de Cannes 2012

The famous Cannes Festival from 16-27 May is not just known for its films, but also for its fashion. Just like the Oscars, many celebrities from around the world come to Cote D'Azure France in the latest top notch dresses or tuxedos from the Spring/Summer and Haute Couture 2012 collections. Pictures below are from the opening of Cannes Festival 65th Anniversary and the premiere of 'Moonrise Kingdom' directed by Wes Anderson.

The red dress worn by Berenice Bejo could easily be mistaken for a Valentino but in homage of the red carpet as host of the Cannes Festival, French fashion house Louis Vuitton could not have produced a better dress for the opening!

Rare Exceptional Blazers

A normal cut blazer is an essential, but an exclusive design makes one look glamorous and sets you apart from the classics and everyone else. Dior Homme in Kris van Assche's debut triggered new character within the 2008 & 2009 collections. As for more current designs, Hong Kong fashion designer Henry Lau makes beautiful jackets under the label Spy along with John Galliano, Gareth Pugh, and Neil Barrett!
