Equally at Celine there is much to praise due to the continuum of the aesthetics Phoebe Philo has brought to the house. She hasn't veered much off script - enough to add detail and dimension but enough of the same to build the best of stylish wardrobes. Clever Celine in these times. But thank goodness for frivolity too, bless you Giles I'll be packing my bicycle basket with lashings of ginger beer, wrapping a feather boa around my neck and kicking up a heel or two come summer. Now all I have to do is grow my hair super quick!

Glad you've found something to love. It's been disappointing this time. Speaking of the 30s - I also loved YSL. Streamlined and chic with some beautiful dresses...and I'm always a sucker for a belt! xx
ReplyDeleteHi there-Christinas photos are fabulous of Giles's new collection for Ungaro, such covetable pieces too! x
ReplyDeleteBicycle baskets, lashings of ginger beer and feather boa's now that's a fashion moment I could embrace. Now I'm just going to get mummy to make me some scrummy jam drops and I'm off to the shops!
ReplyDeleteI think the latest fashion weeks are slow-burners - some of the big labels have been disappointing, but I've found some great looks from smaller designers or in places I wouldn't normally expect.
ReplyDeletei love the bordeaux top and bag but the pants are pretty ill fitting...
ReplyDeleteLoving the leather top and the quirky bag but the trousers look worryingly like trackie bottoms. xxx
ReplyDeleteThe leather top has a vaguely McQueen vibe to me.
ReplyDeleteTo be honest it could still have been Lohan for Ungaro for me I really wasnt impressed, neither with Celine or YSL. I think Viktor and Rolf are my favourites so far, the shirt-pants were genious!
ReplyDeleteLoving the look you published, have to check on others....
ReplyDeleteHope all is well with you
xoxo
I LOVED those Ungaro pictures, thanks for the link. The label is truly back on track. And I won't tell you about my one Ungaro experience, as I can't ruin them all for you ;) No, just kidding, he was quite the gentleman and struck me as an exacting perfectionist.
ReplyDeleteFashion Herald -you can I love your stories. The Stella one is steller!
ReplyDeleteFashion is a hard business, one can forgive old folks making silly decisions but personal insults are a different matter!
I'm loving Celine at the moment but you know what, M&S have made a coat to rival theirs!
ReplyDeleteDear Kate, I'm so pleased you liked Ungaro. I did too. The general consensus is that Giles has done a great job after the Lohan disaster. I have my eye on the pale blue one shoulder long dress and a pair of the sunglasses with flowers and butterflies on.
ReplyDeleteThere's a little film on Vogue where you can see Anna getting fitted and a much better view of the accessories.

I liked Celine too. I wasn't as blown away as I was by last season. Although I have totally agreed with you on all the bad ones!!
