Baroque Era

| comments

Opulence is all the rage these days, and it is time to get out the embellished sweaters, decorated headbands, and heavy, rich prints. Dolce & Gabbana was the leader of the trend, with Oscar de la Renta and Balmain following suit. Will you bring on the glitz this season with your most ornate outfits?


 And if you want to get the look:

Minimalism has come and gone (thank goodness) so that extravagant fashions can once again reign supreme. Fall has given us plenty of baroque-inspired glitz and glamour, and even accessories are wildly whimsical. For the woman who likes a statement piece to be on her feet, here are some insanely elaborate shoes seen this fall.

Meadham Kirchhoff might have succeeded in creating the frilliest, most glittery flatforms in the history of the universe. Blush pink ruffles, rainbow glitter, and a furry pink pompom give this shoe its decadent look. 

 Tennis shoe heels are popping up on every street style sight, but these Giuseppe Zanotti sneaks may be the brightest of the set. For the spotlight lover who wants to add a little athleticism to her wardrobe- just don't try running in these babies.

Looking for a literal translation of the Greek flat sandal? Try these winged flats by aptly-named Ancient Greek Sandals if you are looking to impress Hermes (the messenger of the Gods, not the luxury French brand, though I'm sure they would get a kick out of these shoes as well!).


Prada is no stranger to the fabulous shoe, and fall's statement piece is no exception. This season's heel comes with a signature curvy heel and plenty of mix-and-match embellishments that will have any foot feeling extremely fancy.

More Marie Antoinette chandelier or Laduree cake than shoe, this Dolce & Gabbana masterpiece is perhaps my favorite shoe of the season. Truly a work of art, this high, high heel comes in both blue and white, both versions lined in gold paint and adorned with tiny pink glass flowers. Sweet and fabulous all at once, this is a truly Great Shoe.

What is your favorite shoe from Fall 2012 collections?

Can we all stop to admire how fabulous this ensemble is, captured by Tommy Ton outside the London Spring 2013 Menswear shows? I spy: an 80s glam rock jacket a la Miu Miu, a neon floral Christopher Kane top (or dress??), an adorably zany Meadham Kirchhoff monster purse, and of course, a fluorescent yellow hairdo reminiscent of Lady Gaga in her "Telephone" days. A photo-worthy outfit indeed.

In sewing class we've been talking about what really inspires a designer and how the process of creating a cohesive collection begins. Mood boards are really the basis of creating an understandable collection. Like a thesis statement makes or breaks an essay, the mood board is the explanation of inspiration. We humans are visual, and so a collage-style representation if inspirational images, text, and fabrics makes it easy to explain to others what message you are trying to get across with your clothes.

So of course I spent the afternoon searching the internet for cool mood boards by various designers. Here are some of my favorite finds:

Phillip Lim

Louis Vuitton

One of my favorite collections this spring was the Meadham Kirchhoff one. Here's my favorite look and the drawing I did of it on my brand new drawing tablet! (So cool!)
