Look Book Love: Zimmermann, Resort '09

FabSugar — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 09:00:22 -0700

After checking out its yummy resort presentation in NYC, I've been smitten with all things Zimmermann. Yes, the live show was amazing, but there's something about this look book that pulls me in even deeper. The dank, gritty lighting and hotel backdrop reminds me of humid Summer nights in Costa Rica and the swimwear is beyond amazing. I don't know any girl who could deny the brand's sexy cuts and tropical prints. I'm particularly taken with this batik-print bikini top - the charms are irresistibly fresh. Keep clicking for more scintillating swimwear from Zimmermann!

2009 Cruise: Chanel

FabSugar — Fri, 16 May 2008 13:00:22 -0700

There's no place like sizzling Miami, and Karl Lagerfeld thought the Raleigh Hotel would be the perfect setting for his latest Cruise collection. He was right. A lifeguard oversaw the posh audience, including Chanel muse Diane Kruger and sporty fashionista Anna Kournikova, as well as the fashion elite. And just in case there was any funny business, Chanel logo life preservers were bobbing about. For Karl, this show was “all about proportions, cuts, volumes. There is not one line that is taken all through the collection. For cruise, you don’t do that. There are many looks and an attitude.”

Oh, and the attitude; it was chipper amongst the synchronized swimmers and fierce amongst the models. The clothes were feathered, plasticized, and also synchronized. Black and white made a cameo as well as creamy neutrals and pretty pink - the pink knits were superb. The quirky accessories added humor and sporty touches added a slick element. To wit, the inspiration was Brian Jones, the troubled Rolling Stone who's dead body was found at the bottom of his pool in 1969. Fashion and irony, brilliant.

2009 Cruise: Chanel

There were plenty of rumours surrounding the plans for the Chanel show including a possible appearance of Naomi Cambell and although Lagerfeld did not disappoint, Naomi was no where to be seen. Chanel do not do things by halves, and this resort show in Miami featured 60 looks and 18 synchronized swimmers!

People were expecting a Miami vice feel to the collection but Karl kept us on our toes as always beginning with a dark palette and twists on the classic tuxedo. Waists were high but hemlines were higher with bum-skimming skirts and shorts leaving little to the imagination. There was a classic glamour feel with plenty of applique and over-the-top feathers.

The palette extended as the collection went on eventually ending with pastel shades of blue and pink. The line contained knitwear which had intriguing detail and sheer fabrics featured throughout.

Lagerfeld spoke to WWD before the show, "It’s all about proportions, cuts, volumes...There is not one line that is taken all through the collection. For cruise, you don’t do that. There are many looks and an attitude.”

Blonde hair was bobbed with a heavy fringe which dark hair was slicked down with a low bun.
