Apart from wretched Crocs featured as the main shoe for this Spring collection, Christopher Kane provided cool looks synonymous with those of an urban nomad, from different stages. The urban nomad here was likened to a homeless person, with some pieces bearing a print of what looks like found objects. I’d like to think, these […]
Thom Browne’s Pastel Spring Pool Party
Nothing excites me more than trompe l’oeil which Thom Browne took to a whole new level for his RTW Spring collection. Mixing various prints with texture, Browne’s models’ seemed to exude confidence with contempt, wearing nothing but sweet concoctions of pastels with the occasional doses of black + white thrown in like nonpareils inside a […]
Alexander Wang Takes Us To A Sexy Cali For Spring
For his new RTW Spring collection, designer Alexander Wang peppered his signature style with a lot of his Cali roots. But what was most exciting for this opus was his collabo with Adidas Originals, a wickedly iconic brand in its own right. As VOGUE RUNWAY mentioned how it has been a project that took a year […]
Off-White’s Spring Swagger For Men
As cause and yvette continues to explore more of men’s fashion, there’s no denying how Virgil Abloh’s Off-White label is a true favorite.

Kenzo Brings Out The Animal In Sailor Moon
According to VOGUE RUNWAY, the Kenzo RTW Fall show notes referenced Sailor Moon, the iconic anime character, while pledging allegiance to American pop culture, in their own colorful way. Sailor Moon’s nautical look seemed to have been deconstructed + put back together as separates if not, as one whole piece. A lot of the different dresses […]
Valentino’s Fall Ballerinas
There’s nothing like nude tulle to get me in the right mood, especially when handled so beautifully by Valentino. For its RTW Fall collection, creative directors Maria Grazia Chiuri + Pierpaolo Piccioli, dispelled the notion of how fashion is just about the clothes, but rather, emphasizing the ‘something’ much greater, where the clothes happen to play a role in. […]
Sonia Rykiel Triumphs With Fur + Prints
If I haven’t mentioned it before, Sonia Rykiel is one of my all time favorite designers. Her designs always have sex appeal with ease, which is one way to describe her RTW Fall collection. The collection, one might say, was a play of textures + prints, as well as silhouettes. One of the textures that […]
