A wow at Elie Saab











LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE














Simple, Clean, Structured were I think the words running through Elie Saab's mind this season. For a few shows now, Saab has been trying to show the world that he is more than a one-trick pony and that is day-wear holds its own next to his couture (red carpet -wear). I do now need more convincing as of right this second. This minimalist, color palette-strict collection was just amazing. I could picture wearing every single one of these looks. Now Saab did not strip down totally, he did leave elements of himself to remind us of his unique twist (think sequins, peplum).

This collection now holds one of my favorite looks this pre-fall season, a color-blocked floor length number above. I CANNOT wait to see what comes down his runway at fashion week!

McQueen Pre-Fall













Worthy of standing in a museum, Sarah Burton gives us art in her pre-fall collection. The peplum makes a huge splash here and my hips are currently so happy about it. With this collection Burton is moving away from the that all white, delicate innocent color palette and embracing black. She definitely softened the label's look and the beautifully embroidered gowns in this collection were no exception.This season at McQueen its all about celebrating your womanly shape, embrace the hourglass and define that waist!

I also loved the plain pieces. Burton created some gorgeous shapes in the shirts and blazers. Imagine walking through the office in one of those ensembles!

Wang Pre-Fall
















Absolutely in love with this absolute genius collection. Wang found a way to bring urban, "street" style into the realm of ever-so-chic. The designer expolred many different materials and textures with this collection, combining mesh, and wool. A menswear inspiration was the clear motif of the collection. Wang stayed ever so true to his urban aesthetic however gave us a new chic twist. A definite stand out look? the red mesh with the tailored skirt over top!

A king of layering and urban-chic, Wang knocked this one out of the park.
