Burberry Fall/Winter 2010

With Fall/Winter 2010 Milan Fashion week last week. I thought i would wade through the depresing grey jungle of winterware to see if any designer works against winter depression. Few impressed me, stylish monochrome looks were few and far between. Prada offered knitted cardigans deliberately undersized, this style choice however made the models look to have anorexic waists.

Burberry however did not fail to impress. Whilst Christopher Bailey remains at the helm burberry can do no wrong!  Navy, Olive Green and strong browns provide character and warmth to their winter looks. 

Prada disaster first:

Gaultier Madame Perfume Agyness Deyn.

Agyness Deyn who shot to ''supermodel'' status last year and seemed to be walking down just about every major labels runway stars in the new advert for the new fragance by JPG.
Agyness no doubt fills many other models with envy, thanks to her role as the face of Burberry 2007 and her uncomparable number of magazine pages, even having an issue of i-D magazine in her honour. Agyness also won Model of the year at the British Fashion Awards in 2007 and was also the face of Burberry thanks to Christopher Bailey.

In 2008 she has continued her success moving into music singing in the track 'who' with the Five O'Clock Heroes and continuing her modelling career. Known for her querky personal style and Lancastrian Roots she is completely down to earth with a real talent for modelling from major labels to that of emerging designers such as Gareth Pugh. The Above Advert for JPG is just an example of her brilliance, she is so full of life and at 24 defies the usual lifespan of most models.

Burberry Adverts - Mario Testino

I have developed such an intense affection for Mario Testino's work, his skills as a photographer are above par and create moods for the photographs. This has shone through again in these photographs. Christopher Bailey's genius is shown in these images as he leads Burberry up and up into this constant reinvention styling which shows such drastic changes each season so each collection can stand on its own.

Gucci Spring 2009 Collection

Another wonderful collection this is a rival only to Burberry 2009 which is my favourite for the season. The other designers D&G, Versace, Armani even Vivienne Westwood whom i usually am a major fan of was disappointing. Moschino had some pieces that were noteworthy but overall Sprin 2009 was a drab collection for most male lines and i haven't paid much attention to the female lines as the first few were dull dull dull. Jil Sander actually scared me with the hideous pieces in her collection.
