Jill Stuart. The New Balmain? And how about some more Wang?


(New York Fashion Week continues...)

A little bit Futuristic and a whole lot of fun. Party frocks for everyone! Jill Stuart also kept the little jacket up to date in all its studded, cropped glory; worked in stovepipe pants and a whole lot of shimmer, glimmer and shine into her delicate, yet showy pieces. With it's mesh accents, lace and posh perfect cuts, the collection is fit for a Queen, a Queen Bee that is. Blair Waldorf and the gang just might be spotted in Jill Stuart for the third installment of Gossip girl. A girl can hope. What do you say S & B? It's a collection you either love or hate. I'm veering on love. Especially on the piece I've circled above. I'll be dreaming of that frock, tonight... the whole outfit in it's entirety, actually.....



And a little more Wang for you, because quite frankly, Alexander dear, you amaze me in all that you do! Athletic wear becoming everyday girl wear? Lace-up, zipper infused cleats.. with studs!?!? Thank you for dreaming, it is thoughts and creative ideas like these that inspire us all to push on and try out our own personal dreams, no matter what they may be. The subtle shine in the collection conjures up an almost angelic vibe. Angels in the Outfield anyone? It also doesn't hurt that most of my favorite models were in your line-up: Isabeli Fontana, Anna Selezneva, Regina Feoktistova, Snejana Onopka, Natasha Poly, Lily Donaldson.... Sigh!

I was so disappointed for Wang's new collection... Can't understand that bloggers' hype about it. :(

Emilie said...

I love the JILL STUART collection so much!!!!! I adore the first dress! And the white dress is stunning! I'm in love ;)

Anna Pope said...

Jill Stuart seriously rocked my little fashion centered world. Such pretty and fabulous dresses!

Amy Rae said...

That second set--FANTASTIC. The schoolgirl vibe, short lengths, flirty hems, great cuts. What details! And yet they manage to look just layered out of the closet, rather than meticulously glamorized. Well done--can't wait to see more.

KLEE said...

that lace dress is so pretty!
and i can never get enough of alexander wang, his pieces are always awesome, if only i can have every single one

Cindy Khor said...

can't help but to agree that alexander wang's collection always tends to amaze people by incorporating funky elements into basics. i wonder where does all his ideas come from...

and futuristic elements tends to go with silver/grey and black, is this a coincident or is this the norm?

Christing said...

ah love all the jill stuart dresses and the shoes are amazing as well! def one to watch!

My eye is getting more and more into futurism. Shoulder pads... where are you? I feel like plunging into black this season. Jill Stuart and the studs is quite rock and wonderful!

I loved the second half of alexander Wang, but the first half not so much. Maybe I'm alone in this, but I dedicated a post to him on my blog www.harleyshops.blogspot.com. Thank you, by the way, for visiting. It meant SO much to me.

rossovelvet said...

I agree. But better than last year's Balmain.
Though I prefered last year spring's collection ( more ballet-ish with those crazy shoes ) I really love this one. Not as good as Rodarte but still damn good !

Jewellery Gossip said...

oh i am getting even more excited about LFW!!! NFW looks inspirationally amazing x

Anika said...

Really like the Jill Stuart, even though we've seen it all before. Still great silhouettes and trends that I like.
Can I say it (without being stoned)??!!! Not overly impressed with Wang's work. Some of it was beautiful, yes, but not killer fashion.

Love your rundowns though....highlight, my dear lady.

Have a lovely weekend gorgeous. My work has been so chaotic and stressful, I just want to hide under my duvet in pyjamas all weekend. Arrrgh!

Heh,
love ya
Anika

Ashley said...

I feel the exact same way about the Jill Stuart collection....VERY Balmain but with some fresh twists.
