Chi Diem Chau — Wed, 27 Jul 2011 03:15:37 PDT

For pre-Fall, Mango showed some enviable outfits in its lookbook featuring Kasia Struss and Emma Xie. Think layers comprised of floral skirts, striped tees, denim, and flirty dresses - perfect for those strange and wonderful transitioning months in September and October. But not all is casual; we spotted some cropped trousers for the posh working woman and even a pretty lace frock ideal for first-date encounters. Peek into the slideshow for the rest of the lookbook and more midweather dressing inspiration.

Versace Unveils Its Amazing Atelier Spring '10 Collection

FabSugar — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 11:00:22 PDT

Until now, Versace has kept its Spring '10 Atelier collection under wraps, showing the collection to an elite invite-only audience during Couture Week. Get ready to swoon because the Italian fashion house has finally revealed its look book for all to lust over. With the help of model Kasia Struss, Versace shows off a decadent line of Swarovski crystal, feather, and chain-embellished gowns fit for any red carpet queen. While it was hard to choose, my personal favorite was this modern silver chain-embellished frock. It's sexy, slinky, and quintessential Versace. Start seeing more jaw-dropping, eye-popping gowns . . .

Fab Ad: Alberta Ferretti, Spring '10

FabSugar — Wed, 20 Jan 2010 15:00:22 PST

Alberta Ferretti's latest ad campaign takes me back to my childhood, when I would frolic in my fairy outfit and colorful braided headband. Only now it's Hanne Gaby Odiele, Kasia Struss, Constance Jablonski, and Dorothea Barth Jörgensen having the fun, and the clothes are way chicer. I love everything about these Steven Meisel shots - the fluid movements, the romantically beautiful dresses, the serene colors. If only I could transport myself to Alberta's fairyland! What do you think?

The Fab Faces of Spring '10

FabSugar — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 04:00:22 PST

With Spring ready-to-wear in the bag, designers are conjuring up their Spring ad campaigns, placing the hottest of the hot with the most stylish shutterbugs. Thus far, we know Lara Stone will star in Louis Vuitton's ads, while Daisy Lowe will shine for its swimwear line. In Versace land, Donatella has chosen Fabcon Georgia May Jagger to be photographed by Mario Testino. On the celebrity front, Madonna was snatched up by Dolce & Gabbana - we're hoping she won't look as photoshopped as her previous Louis Vuitton ads.

To learn who else is starring in Spring '10 ads,

Fab Ad: Mulberry, Fall '09

Mulberry's latest ad campaign helps me gear up for Fall, both physically and mentally. The moody hues are so Autumn, and those leather hobo bags are just lovely. Irina Kulikova and Kasia Struss's jumpy posing keeps the photo from being too stagnant, and the mellow background allows the bags to shine. I'll let Bella fans determine whether or not the big hair is cool, but the outfits and location are spot on. Agreed?

Fab Ad: Chloé Fall '09

FabSugar — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 02:50:22 PDT

I once spoke of the fashion metamorphosis of the house of Chloé and its ad campaign transformation. I feel like when it comes to ads, Chloé has done it all: streets, deserts, beach, and now Spanish wheat fields. This is the second major ad campaign for designer Hannah MacGibbon, and she has stuck with photographer Mikael Jansson. What she hasn't stuck with are the same models as Spring. Instead of Anna Maria Jagodzinska and Toni Garrn, she chose Kasia Struss, Sigrid Agren, and Karlie Kloss. Do you dig this or is it way too au naturel?

Sneak Peek! Mango, Summer '09

FabSugar — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 14:00:22 PDT

Here is Polish model Kasia Struss cliff climbing in the latest collection from Mango. The Summer stock includes countless fashiony pieces: drop-crotch shorts, sequin tops, flutter-sleeve blouses, plaid pants, neon tees, print maxis, and colorful scarves. I see a collection that's conducive to warm weather but doesn't compromise style for temperature. I quite like how they've jazzed up this long, white prairie maxi with a fun scarf and low-slung brown belt. There's more where that came from . . .

2009 Pre-Fall: Michael Kors

FabSugar — Fri, 09 Jan 2009 15:00:08 PST

After viewing Michael Kors's 2009 Pre-Fall collection, here's what we need to do to be in the know: wrap a thick, black headband around head; wear a long-sleeve turtleneck underneath a crop-sleeve coat, combine loud patterns, seek unique necklaces, don't be afraid of boxy cuts, overdo leopard. Phew! It's a lot to take in, but it all comes together beautifully, as exemplified by models Kasia Struss, Lindsay Ellingson, and Chanel Iman. If your goal is to look polished, mature, but with off-kilter undertones, this Kors collection will be of inspiration to you. I know I'll be taking away a few things myself.
