For Summer, Hungarian designer Anna Daubner gets inspired + reimagines the fencing uniform into perfect light + airy looks.. For her Summer capsule collection, the concept of materials + cuts was built on that of fencing uniforms: the surface of luxe sport fabrics, the simplicity of the cuts + the purity of white.

WAKE UP! to Lady Gaga singing her R. Kelly hit, ‘Do What You Want’ with Christina Aquilera, last night on ‘The Voice’, in case you missed it.
