Fashion || Another Look at: DOLCE & GABBANA Fall 2009

Inspired by the ever growing shoulder (which according to Style.com is i.e. "Elsa Schiaparelli for Fall. She was an original proponent of the ballooning shoulder")

Dolce and Gabbana's Fall 2009 RTW collection revisited the 30s and 40s

exaggerating components of the tailoring and creating unique placements for key elements of that time period

(Satin gloves utilized at the neck as more of a cravat, and in the hair as an accessory hyper-extended

as something that can be utilized in fashion as something more than a hand-warmer.

The furs are noticeably larger and louder; they're also placed at the shoulder to enhance the appearance of the garment.

Who knew that turquoise would make such a statement in the Fall and Winter.

Even in the Fall/Winter 2010 season, this collection makes plenty of noise.

Fashion || Ode to the 80s: Marc Jacobs Fall 2009

We are in a familiar place economically.
Times likes these draw back direct references to the Reagan Years from an economic and creative stand-point.
For Marc Jacobs, this meant a return to "the good old days" of getting dressed up in the New York.
New Wave glam is far from gone as Jacobs delivered "a neon-hued, big-shouldered,
crimpy-haired eighties antidote to the gloom and doom of 2009"
