Fashion Is Better Under the Sea

FabSugar — Thu, 22 May 2008 04:00:22 -0700

Looking at these editorial photos from Numero Tokyo 15, it makes me wonder why Kai Milla, the designer of the white dress Janice Dickinson wore in an episode of her modeling reality show got so mad when she jumped in a water fountain with the dress. After all, these Missonis and Lanvins look so much prettier under water. They really come to life and take shape. Model Marcelina Sowa's facial expressions may be stronger on land, but with such grandiose dresses in your sight, one forgets the face.

This shoot also reminds me of one of the episodes of Make Me a Supermodel where the models had to do an underwater challenge. Isn't fashion better under the sea?!

Trend Alert: Under the Sea Sequins

FabSugar — Thu, 18 Dec 2008 07:00:22 -0800

If you can't escape to la mar this Winter, escape via your wardrobe. Under the sea sequins are unexpected and mystical. There's something about a shimmer in a deep indigo, bright turquoise, or cool cerulean. Black sequins - been there, done that. These mermaids permeated the red carpets in the most beautiful of blues, Jennifer and Cate both in Balenciaga and Rachel in Derek Lam. Notice the varied shoe choices. Just because you're wearing an aquatic frock doesn't mean you can't wear some party shoes, too.

When weekends are spent seaside, or poolside, why not wear your happiness on your sleeve, or around your neck.

I think seahorses are the cutest little things with their full lips and curly tails. Enjoy!

2010 Spring Milan Fashion Week: Prada

FabSugar — Fri, 25 Sep 2009 06:50:22 -0700

For Spring '10, Miuccia Prada concocted a collection inspired by sea and surf. However, it wasn't your typical beach-inspired line. “Beach and antiquity - high and low - it is all the same,” said Miuccia Prada. “It is supposed to be an ironic take - sometimes nostalgic, for a contemporary take on antiquity for those who don’t understand the beauty of the past.” Well said, Miuccia.

Red-lipped models, complete with tousled ponytails, exuded a youthful innocence as they walked down the runway in a variety of crisp shorts - ranging from knicker-inspired, to long and lean, and even a couple of biker shorts - structured jackets, and embellished tops adorned with palm trees, in some darker hues for the print-challenged. But it was really the crystal-laden pieces that stole the show. These shimmering objects, via dresses and shoes, dazzled with every step. Definitely unique, and with a little modifying, like adding a slip underneath the dress, icons such as Ashley Olsen or Diane Kruger would surely take the bait.

Stella McCartney Sea Grass Thong Sandal: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Thu, 08 Mar 2007 09:13:33 -0800

OMG! These Stella McCartney Sea Grass Thong Sandals, $575, make my feet itch just looking at them. We know superstar Stella is an anti-fur advocate and vegan all about organic skin care, but I think taking nature to the wedge is a no go here. These also come in a natural color, which seem a bit less abrasive but in the dark color these look like dead seaweed wrapped around the foot; what a difference a color makes! What do you all think? Love or hate?

Trend Alert: Black Tie Not Optional

FabSugar — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 15:00:22 -0700

Whether with chain necklaces piled on top, as our example Lindsay Price flaunts, or simply untied, this invitation reads black tie not optional. The black tie detail is the pivotal player here, delivering a masculine/feminine message. Not so into bows? Here is a laid-back alternative. If you exercise your option, do like Lindsay and pile on some glitzy bling, and keep the rest sexy and sleek.

If the ocean's most sassy mermaid came to land, Findemaxa's 'fit is what she would rock.
