Sexy Christmas Fashions

December 7th 2007 00:10
Ho, Ho, Ho it's time for a Christmas Show

Christmas Fashion Show
Victoria shares her Christmas Secret


I feel that before I begin a disclaimer is in order. I did make every attempt to find male models and some examples of what the men can wear to sex themselves up this festive season, but I couldn’t find any online images. No harm though because the women more than compensate with ample options to conjure up yuletide spirit.

Good ole St Nick will be smiling


Though not all these outfits are about flashing the flesh they are cute and undeniably sensual. Predominantly sticking to Santa’s Coke red and white colour scheme, I have never been more curious what could be inside the stockings hung with care.

Santa's Little helpers


Sure the egg nog warms the tummy but these outfits sizzle the cockles. Bringing sugar and spice and all things nice to a private carols by candlelight. Maybe a party at Heff’s Playboy mansion would also be appropriate. (Wow I think I have just come up with my Christmas themed sware for this year.)

Christmas Lingerie
A lingering mood


Christmas was once a conservative holiday, a time for family and friend to celebrate an innocent get together. Now however the silly season just keeps getting more exuberant and of course the world of fashion has embraced it.

Christmas Lingerie
The gift of love, or is that lust?


There is a playfulness that adds to the sultry appeal of these skimpy ensembles that almost removes their exploitive nature, almost. These mischievous outfits may only be appropriate once a year, but will be remembered for the next 364 days.

Here is a clip from last years Victoria's Secret fashion Show that has more of the same

Ode to an Italian Dress

October 1st 2007 01:52
DOlce and Gabbana Summer 08 PAINTED BLACK DRESS
All images from http://eng.dolcegabbana.it


Flamboyant and theatrical, Dolce and Gabbana’s Summer 2008 collection is indeed replete with works of art. From the hand-painted fabrics, the obsession with intricate embellishments and details to the matte velvet lips, D & G invoke a Keats-ian realm - instead of a Grecian urn, this is my ode to an Italian dress

Tristan Blair - What Else!

September 11th 2007 17:56
It's fair to say after trawling boutique after fabulous boutique in this beautiful city, there is noone aside from Massarro of course, who quite puts the same shine on a pair of shoes than Australian Designer Tristan Blair.

He is elusive, demure and completely humble about his creativity. I once attempted to help him source a shoe manufacturer in Brazil. He had become great friends with a man and his chicken in Bali and was loathe to change. Given my experiences in working with Brazilian timeframes I can understand why. Nothing quite happens fast enough in that country. Needless to say in a Summer that sports cotton candy and casual style you cant go past his new collection "Wonderful Armour

Who's Hot for Summer 2008

Who's Hot for Summer 08

Forget the unwearable items you see strutting down some fashion runways, european fashion speaks to the sillhouette and moves us back to the real aim of fashion - expressing ourselves AND flattering our body shape

J'adore Dior

July 20th 2007 08:20
I realise I’m running a little behind the couture shows but I am grasping the moment because, as the title indicates, my infatuation with Dior continues, exacerbated by Galliano’s recent designs for their couture show.

Couture is the aesthetic height of the fashion industry epitomising Oscar Wilde’s motto: “art for art’s sake”. Certainly some of the dresses are sold but couture is a millstone round the ankle of fashion houses as far as profit is concerned. The hours and effort spend to make each dress are Herculean, the expense of fabric and beading utterly Olympian (as in the Mount not the games

Junya Watanabe or College Days Revisited

June 26th 2007 00:01
In this rainy wintry weather looking at Junya Watanabe’s men’s collection in Milan I was reminiscing about college. For those of you unfamiliar with the Canberra education system, years 11 and 12 at public schools are called colleges, are located on their own grounds, have no uniforms and the teachers are called by their first names. There’s no HSC, assessment is close to the university system and generally they’re far nicer places to be. Anyway when I was at college the boys used to dress like this, themselves nostalgic for some sort of 80s punky/motorcycle rider style.

Prada: progenitor of postmodern pastiche

June 14th 2007 00:44
In my habitual internet trawlings I came across quite a feat on the Prada website. Admittedly I didn’t much like this season’s collection but the means by which it is represented is a true cultural document. Prada demonstrates wit, self-reflexivity and pastiche in a way that many other ‘postmodernists’ should envy. As a European luxury brand, descended from a grand tradition to a commercial reality, Prada is a modern day icon but the self-representation offers an entirely new perspective on the brand.

It's all in the gams: Jessica Stam

June 7th 2007 00:42
One of the most striking models of the contemporary brat pack is Jessica Stam, a statuesque Canadian who has the kind of natural physique required for catwalk shows. She is indeed long and slender but there is nothing painful about the proportions of her legs or the position of her clavicle. My general rule is that if the knee is wider than the thigh there’s a problem but Stam is in proportion as you can see from the Stella McCartney show.

I love Marc Jacobs

May 21st 2007 00:22
What I really wish I had right now is the entire Marc Jacobs Fall 2007 Ready to Wear Collection. So rarely do I view a collection and consider that not only would I wear just about every piece therein but would look exquisite, savvy and elegant in the process. This collection is a sort of blend of Gatsby-esque 20s chic and slender 70s day-wear. Jacobs manages to create a collection so rich in detail and pleasurable in palate that I just want to eat it all up.
