For more than one season, laconic style dominates in fashion - minimalism. More and more brands are abandoning ostentatious saturation and prefer simple clothes made with taste.
Flying gait
The Italian luxury clothing brand Luisa Spagnoli is now also represented in Dubai. The classic models of the Spring-Summer 2016 collection remind you of the 70s, but at the same time they have unusual touches that are unique to this brand.
Boho chic is in fashion again: suede fringed vest and flared jeans with faux suede inserts, short dresses and mini-skirts “sun”, floral prints on high-waisted dresses, oriental caftans, midi skirts and ethnic palazzo trousers - in a word, the style of real hippies. The brand’s DNA - denim - appears in the new, but slightly unusual role in the new collection. The range of jeans with five pockets has expanded: to the “skinny” and “boyfriends” added new flared from the knee and shortened models. A boiled jumpsuit “jeans” is the main must have of the season.
DIOR x Marc Quinn
On June 3, 2016, in London, on the famous New Bond Street, a new Dior boutique was opened. The largest Dior store in the UK - on as many as four floors! - women's and men's collections, leather accessories, jewelry, watches, products for children and children's clothing from Baby Dior are presented, as well as an exclusive collection of home goods Dior HOME. In honor of this event, Dior also released a limited collection of legendary Lady Dior handbags and leather accessories, which were rethought by artist Mark Quinn. The representative of the modern art scene transferred his colorful hyperrealistic canvases to Dior models and breathed new life into them.
Roger Vivier, Icons Connected
Roger Vivier Fashion Shoe House, in partnership with the Al Tayer Group, celebrated the first opening of the Icons Connected mobile exhibition in Dubai. In honor of this event, the representative of the brand, the French model, fashion designer and philanthropist Ines de la Fressange, arranged a reception for clients and the press in the Level Shoes boutique in The Dubai Mall. This was followed by a private dinner at the Jean-Georges Restaurant at Four Seasons Resort. “I knew the shoe maker Roger Vivier personally,” Ines shared with us, “he is the legend of the fashion world: he created the first stilettos, invented ballerinas with large buckles, made shoes for Dior and SenLoren - he was so talented! But the last twenty for years his name was undeservedly forgotten. Therefore, when in 2001 the owner of Roger Vivier turned to me and offered to become part of the team that will revive the brand, I immediately answered yes. "
Icons Connected Traveling Exhibition pays tribute to the memory of legendary shoe designer Roger Vivier (1907-1998) - from the 30s to the present day. The exhibition presented models of shoes that embody the brand’s history, as well as drawings and old photographs depicting the master’s famous creations. The exhibition glorifies the achievements of the fashion house and allows you to follow its development: from the manufacture of footwear for pop stars to the elite Parisian brand, whose elegant and modern models are loved all over the world.
God is in the details
The autumn collection of Alexander McQueen is imbued with sensual charm of the 30-40s. Creative director of the brand, Sarah Burton, spoke about her theme: “Women always keep their treasures very carefully - jewelry, cosmetics, sweet trinkets. The main character of the new collection is impeccably elegant: she paints her lips with red lipstick, wears velvet platforms with high lacing and adores feathers, and her wardrobe is bursting with fragile dramatic evening dresses. "
Arrived at the regiment
The second Polo Ralph Lauren store has opened in Dubai in the new trendy City Walk shopping mall. The American heritage of the brand is represented by the refined, energetic, but comfortable models that Ralph Lauren is so famous for. On an area of 200 square meters, everything reminds of America: the wooden boat station at the foot of the Adirondack mountain range, the whitewashed brick walls of the New York loft ... In this unusual combination of rural straightforwardness and busy city life, all Polo models look even more spectacular.
