Abbey, Natasha, Freja, Jacquetta, Myf,Anja and Raquel for Gucci Fall 2009

The first time I saw Gucci's Fall 2009 collection my first thought was like, I like it, but that approval stage passed quickly as I continued seeing the w hole collection, so with the advertisement campaign the déja vù was unavoidable. The first image that we thought was gonna be the campaing was Anja Rubik's one with a purse,very simple, but it worked. The Anja campaing turned out to be a pre-fall campaing and slowly pictures of a new campaign emerged, pictures, that nobody was so pleased about. The first set of pictures was ok, but then a so called behind the scenes video appared on you tube, making a lot of people wondering if this campaign had a reason. I'll let you be the judge but I asure you my dear reader, that Gucci's trendsetting stage is past and whe are on a new era, an era that I am not so thrilled about, an era that follows what other designers make instead of making the trends by themselves.

MariaCarla, Edita and Heidi for Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2009

Its time for another campaign to show up and this time its Dolce & Gabbana's Vegas wives themed advertisement. Dolce & Gabbana has been one of my favourite brands, but, since the dissapointments of last season's campaign and the fall 2009 runway show, I wasnt expecting that much from this campaign. The surprise came to me when I saw MariaCarla Boscono rocking the outfits and the eyewear with her fierce attitude. The cast is completed by Edita Vilkeviciute and Heidi Mount.

Burberry Goes Loco for Emma.

For the first time in about 4 season Burberry drops the usual model line-up(Lily,Agyness, Alex) for a different model, 19-year-old Harry Potter actress Emma Watson. The actress is a fashion fanatic and she attends the shows in Paris for the Fashion Week and her new campaing was a bit of a shocker considering that she is only 19 and her fame is mostly because of a teen movie. The campaing, shooted by Mario Testino at Westmister, shows a very mature(and photoshopped) Emma with 3 male models. The ads do a bit of justice to Burberry's Fall 2009 and its way better than the previews ads( Spring 2009).

Imogen does BCBG!

The time has come and magazines are finally realizing the new season's ad campaigns. A good start is the BCBG Max Azria campaign, not because its so high fashion or so beautiful but becuase the casting. It features on of my favourite newcomers, british cutie Imogen Morris-Clarke.
She is one of the new starts of the fashion world and she'll be everywhere in a few seasons, I can asure that.

Fall 2009 Favourites(13/13): Jean Paul Gaultier

I saved my favourite show for last, Jean Paul Gaultier show in Paris. Gaultier and McQueen were the Shows of the season and when I saw shows is because they were so entertaining. The Gaultier's collection based on a Paris cabaret featured models wearing milataries suits and others dresses like vedettes. The initial and final part of the show were as Gaultier's usual a show, the initial was the natural scene of a parisian cabaret and the ending a fight beetween model Coco Rocha and Patricia Schmid. The High waist ruled in this show again, masculine outfit, combat boots and classy dresses made Gaultier's collection this season's best show.

Fall 2009 Favourites(12/13): Rodarte.

No one can't deny the amazing progress that the Muleavy sisters had they started as one of New York's little new shows and now its one of the most waited shows. After they apeared on Style.com's best collection all the eyes are in their designs, the Mulleavys havent let down any one. For this season they were inspired on mother earth and stones with high waists and boots, ones of the most popular trends for the season. Weird Jackets and a colour palette full of nature's colours. The Rodarte show was one of the most expected and it did not desapointed.

Fall 2009 Favourites(11/13): Ruffian.

Ruffian is one of New York's most promising designes and the new favourites of many and for Fall 2009 they did a very easy to look collection with an obvious preppy insipiration. The US's Catholics schools use uniforms and we can see that the Ruffian duo was inspired by that. A collection that I'll love to see on Gossip Girl with Blair Waldorf wearing it. The Polka Dots things were really lovely and The high waist that is one of this season's basic trends. Ruffian is a brand with a lot of future but we can't deny that the future of fashion is happening now with this new wave of talented young designers.

Fall 2009 Favourites(10/13): Emilio Pucci.

Italian fur house Emilio Pucci has a new designer:Peter Dundas, the norwegian that used to work at a french brand. He take the legacy of Matthew Williamson and turn it for his own good. Its been a while since I like a Emilio Pucci collection because honestly colour is not my forte but the incredibly mix of bolt and opaque colour of this collection left me drooling. The hight boots are now one of the people's must have for the next season, the shoes very beautiful too. The fur use was obviously present at the show, in a mixed way. The dresses were red carpet worthy and the venue of the show was very simple it even seemed like a photoshoot but no It was a runway and the models walked in a very energic way almost like the ones that you see at Versace.

Fall 2009 Favourites(9/13):Balmain.

Since Christophe Decarnin took over the French house of Balmain it became one of my new favourites, his amazing way of putting pieces together and his great talent make Balmain one of the most anticipated collection every season. The exclusive walk of Erin Wasson was unexpected but pleasent; Angela Lindvall and Carmen Kass also walked the show. The continous use of the long tails is simple amazing and for this season and for the previous ones its cool to say that we love Decarnin for Balmain.

Fall 2009 Favourites(8/13): John Galliano.

John Galliano's Fall 2009 show featured all the place Imagination can go: Ukranian Virgins and Ancient Greek. With an overwhelming light changing stage at the beggining and the dramatic music, the models displayed a show full of transparencies, Metallic Head pieces,sky high heels and a dramatic Makeup made Galliano's show a must see at Paris Fashion Week and with a large amount of people saying that Dior couture should be like this after John's lack of craziness for the other brand. He takes us to his world, a world when anything can and will be posible.

Fall 2009 Favourites(6/13): Givenchy.

A Gothic- themed show, that was one of the highlight of Paris Fashion Week. Since Ricardo Tisci entered the Givenchy house back in 2005 we've seen his goth extravaganza for couture and for Ready To Wear and this season is no exception: Black,beige and white was the official colour pallette of the show. Fur and feathers were also present. A collection that might not be as comercial as some people wanted to but we fashionistas are thrilled to see Tisci's talent season by season.
