Styling Project #1

Hi,

so this is a project I had to do this semester for my styling class. Basically the clothes we were wearing the 1st day of school would be the pieces we had to play in this project. We had to using the garments and only those that we were wearing create 30 looks featuring every single one of them, the only thing we could change was accessories, shoes and bag. 

BEFORE: A picture of how I went to class that very 1st day.

And AFTER: here's the outcome of all the madness that went through my mind!

Finally we had to adjust our looks to a selected style icon, I was chosen Chloe Sevigny and make it "Magazine" like.

After a couple of headaches and a little bit of freaking out, I kind of liked the outcome and I had fun! What do you think?

Love,

G.

Classic as always but with some sheer unexpected details and openings.

Brood

Wonderful prints and an amazing invent way of construction.

Elizabeth and James

Beautiful tailored clothes, simple lines yet super stylish and sophisticated.

Ralph Lauren

If having the Downtown Abbey theme song playing the collection had the reference of the WWI. The first part of the show was dedicated to suits and tailored pieces usually worn by men this time for women, followed by a black&gold section, quite different from the first section, it had as reference the 20s adapt to the 21st century women.

Fall 2012 New York - February 15th

J. Mendel

A lovely collection, extremely feminine making the perfect balance of girly and sophistication.

Lyn Devon

Gorgeous simple, basic designs with a great choice of fabrics. I especially loved the take on the pencil skirt, giving it a fold on the front, very clever! 

Michael Kors

Someone loves FUR! There's no doubt that Michael Kors designs for all the women around the world, he's able to make it commercial to every person either from the high society or just a regular common person. This collection was no different, a lot of great pieces, easy to wear and super sleek.

Reed Krakoff

I first started loving the accessories, especially handbags and I appreciate how they translate into the clothing, amazing construction beautifully cuts.

Victoria, Victoria Beckham

I've seen better from her, but I loved the baby dolls, especially the last one.

Vivienne Tam

Vivienne Tam was a surprise to me, the show was not of my taste until we hit the middle and these great layering looks started coming out, I love the mix of materials, patterns.. excellent man repelling in my option.

Fall 2012 New York - February 14th

Alexandre Herchcovitch

A new designer to my list, I loved the proportions and silhouettes of the clothes and they were done in a beautiful color palette.

J. Crew

I love J. Crew and their transition into RTW. The clothes are extremely wearable and the styling was amazing, mixing a lot of prints, patterns and textures.

Naeem Khan

It's no news when I say Naeem Khan is my favorite gown designer, if I was going to the Oscars next sunday I would totally be wearing one of his designs.... unfortunately I'm not, yet!

RAD by Rad Hourani

It's kind of ironic that RAD offered a rad collection, but it's the truth! Minimalistic, just how I like it and super modern.

Rodarte

Whereas Rodarte showed an extremely romantic collection with a vintage quality to it.

Sachin+Babi

This collection was extremely sexy and I do not mean it in a trashy way, it was very subtle. Designs to a strong, confident woman.
