MadonnaandDolce&Gabbana strengthen their collaboration with the new venture – eyewear collection. The line will include six styles and each will have a MDG logo, with M standing for Madonna and DG for the brand.
The collaboration is interesting for both Dolce & Gabbana and the singer.
Stefano Gabbana says in the interview for WWD:
We’re so excited. This further strengthens our relationship with Madonna, and it was a very constructive experience for us. Madonna is very exacting and a professional who seeks perfection in everything she does, and this was no exception.”
Over 50 sketches of sunglasseswere sent to the queen of pop but she chose only six and even altereted those to her liking.
Madonna will also star in the ad campaign for the upcoming range. The adverts will feature close-ups of Madonna playing a film noir version of herself along with model Tyson Ballou shot by Steven Klein.
Tom Ford is a genius in his own way. I can’t say I love his creations but the fact the world loves those is undeniable. And this means his talent is appreciated. What I personally like is the way he promotes his works, those fantastic and outrageous campaigns that are discussed and criticized again and again.
The eyewear for Spring-Summer 2010 looks pretty and unusual, just like everything from this designer.
The ad campaign looks interesting but the fact the models are more or less dressed-up is surprising.
Nicholas Hoult is all about tuxedos, bowties and white shirts. But Carolyn Murphy is nothing about that. All she’s wearing is makeup and sunglasses. Her body is perfectly smooth and underwear lines are the only things that attract attention!
Louis Vuitton creations are often bold and eccentric, but we love them, don’t we?
Sunglasses for Spring-Summer 2010 are super bright and playful. Hot pink and red, green and white frames with dark, almost black lenses do look great! And if you know how to wear such styles to stand out these are definitely for you to try! You’ll never merge with the groud wearing something like that!
However, for classic lovers there are designs too. They are more reserved both in hues and designs and can easily be incorporated into an office outfit.
Sunglasses by Louis Vuitton are made for both men and women and if you are confident enough you can try ones for the opposite sex!
The photo shoot features models: Josephine De La Baume, Annabelle Dexter Jones, Birdy Bell, Chrissie Miller, Daphne Hezard, Gildas Loaec, Hailey Gates, Isabelle McNally, Lucien Smith, Olivier Zham, Olympia Le Tan, Theodora Richards, Vahina Giocante and Wade Oates.
Chloe collection of accessories for Fall-Winter 2009/2010 includes beautiful and versatile pieces which will long be fashionable.
Handbags are the most attractive in the range. They are made of leather, including trendy reptile one, and suede. Colors are all shades of brown, beige, grey and black. Bags come in a variety of sizes: from small pretty clutches to classic average-sized office-style items. There is a number of purses too, but they aren’t as nice as hanbags.
The shoe line isn’t very diverse. Wedged booties look good. As for suede sandals – I don’t like them at all.
The range also includes sunglasses and jewelry. Jewelry is exquisite and comes with a compamy logo. Sunglasses seem to me very similar to the ones in the previous line.
They are worn in cities to protect eyes from sun, dust and exhaust. And celebrities seem to wear those everywhere and in all seasons to keep incognito and hide from paparazzi and annoying fans.
They create a look of an intelligent and very confident person who knows what humour is.
The ad pictures you see here reflect the eccentric feel Ksubi eyewear give to the wearer.
But they do show that no matter what you carry on your head or wear as clothing sunglasses will be the first what other people notice looking at you.
Ksubi company was established in 2000 by a group of professional surfers . It first specialized on making denim clothes. However, shoe and sunglasses lines soon followed.
We need sunglasses in all seasons and one more pair will never be the one we don’t want in our wardrobe, especially if it so chic and beautiful as eyewear from Bottega Veneta Fall-Winter 2010 collection.
The sunglasses come with titanium and natural horn accents, plastic lenses and acetate frames. Some are posh, while others are of a simplier design.
I like the pince-nez! It looks like a vintage piece.
Lady Gaga is a trendy fashion moster. She proved this again in her new ‘Bad romance’ video wearing huge McQueen shoes and razor-sunglasses. Girls, I know many of you adore her but, please, don’t even try to imitate THIS. Gigantic shoes can break your legs while razors can damage your eyes!
I wanted to design a pair for some of the toughest chicks and some of my girlfriends — don’t do this at home! — they used to keep razor blades in the side of their mouths,” she explained. “That tough female spirit is something that I want to project. It’s meant to be, ‘This is my shield, this is my weapon, this is my inner sense of fame, this is my monster.’”
Sunglasses are a definite must-have in any womne’s wardrobe. And another pair of eyewear will never be a thing you don’t want or need.
Tory Burch has launched the first ever for the brand eyewear collection that includes a line of vintage-inspired but modern-looking eyelasses. The inspiration was brought from distinctive style icons such as James Dean, Peter Fonda, Steve McQueen, and Faye Dunaway.
While cretaing the line Tory was influenced by photos of her parents on trips during the 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s. This means we can expect the overall classic feel in this eyewear range.
The new collection is available both at Tory Burch boutiques and online, at www.toryburch.com
There are only four styles in it but all of those are vintage inspired.
The movie-star twins are to launch the collection in collaboration with top eyewear maker Linda Farrow. The sunglasses will range from $325 to $390 each and be available through the Olsens’ luxury label The Row.
Mary-Kate and Ashley described their new creations as “sleek and sassy”. The collection includes a classic aviator, 60s inspired round glasses, an oversized square frame and vintage inspired brow-line shades.
The new range will hit the shelves in spring 2010 and will be a test line. The sisters want to see how the designs sell before expanding the range next year.
We’re testing the market first and obviously these are four very different silhouettes, so we’re seeing what people are responding to and we’ll open up a couple more silhouettes for autumn,” Ashley said.
For nearly 70 years aviator sunglasses have been the most popular with fashionistas. And the company Ray-Ban that invented the shape has become one of the leading producers of glasses.
Aviator sunglasses were invented for the military. The design was elaborated by Bausch & Lomb company for American pilots in 1929-1930.
The firm signed a contract with USAF and took their time to develop the right shape and find the most appropriate and durable material for the frame. Besides, special technologies were used to make the sunglasses almost versatile: they could protect eyes from the sun and at the same time cleared the view.
Douglas MacArthur – an American commander – made the aviators top fashionable. Aviator sunglasses were the integral part of his image as well as a pipe.
Charismatic man was the first to represent a newly-founded brand.
When we say “stylish” we actually mean “well-dressed”. How many modern stars can we call stylish?
Lots. But who of them are style icons? The question is difficult to answer as almost none of them can be compared to Marilyn Monroe, Marlene Dietrich, Greta Garbo, Sophia Loren or Audrey Hepburn in their ability to combine garments keeping the same style all the time.
Though skinny jeans look great doctors say they can be dangerous for our health. According to some experts tight jeans might cause a nerve problem called meralgia paresthetica.
Together with high stilettos skinny jeans put great pressure on the femoral cutaneous nerve that runs through the thigh. As a result ladies often feel tingling and burning through the leg.
All that big-breast mania we have now is a complete nonsense! No matter what your bra size is, your bust can look nice if you know how to “wear” it.
And many men like girls with chest much smaller than Pamela Anderson’s! Besides, the majority of designers create their garments for ladies with smaller busts.
