RIP Nejoud Boodai

Nejoud Boodai

1972-2010

We sadly mourn the loss of one of the most influential fashion personalities not just to me but also for the Arab world and especially  gulf countries ..

Nejoud Boodai passed away two days ago after a battle with cancer ..

I have been looking up to her since a very young age and fascinated not just by her designs .. she was a strong successful woman who made us all proud ..

may Allah be with her family and loved ones and help them through this hard time ..

LEGENDS OF THE FALL

Since fall is coming soon .. I think its the right time to make a quick recap for the shoes trends of fall 2010 – 2011..

good thing about them is that they are very diverse ..fresh ..and definitely every fashion forward girl will find one or more style that works for her ..

I’ve previously wrote about the thigh high boots one of the MAJOR trends of the season and on how can a girl wear them properly ..

here is how I will break it down for you ..

as I was going through the fall 2010 – 2011 shows I was trying to put each trend in a separate group but the more I search and see the more I find out that most of the designers and fashion houses had combined more than one shoe trend in their designs ..

so I thought of a simple way to talk about them and show them to you in the easiest way possible ..

each trend will have a number ..and that number will be tagged on the shoe belonging to that trend weather its a single , double or even triple trend in some cases ..

hope this way is as easy as it seems to me ..

enjoy exploring ..

Magnificent Obsession

SHOT BY: Peter Lindbergh

STARRING: Natalia Vodianova, Ewan McGregor

الفوتوشوت ماخذ شكل احداث فلم درامي تدور احداثه في الخمسينات واستعرضت فيه المجله اخر مجموعه لشتاء 2010/2011

الملابس طبعا اخذت السلويت الكلاسيكي البسيط مع تنوع الالوان والاقمشه..

السينيماتوقرفي كانت رائعه جدا ونقلت عدسه المصور لنا احداث دراما من خلال نضرات تعني عن الحديث ..

الصور الحقيقه ذكرتني في فيلم a Single Man من اخراج توم فورد .. وما اقصد بذلك ان فيه نوع من التقليد لان الخمسينيات راجعه من كل النواحي وبرزت خلال الموضه والافلام والموسيقا

اترككم الان مع الصور مع نبذه عن الاحداث والقطع ..

SPOTLIGHT:MIA JAFARI’S DEBUT COLLECTION

اطلقت المصممه البريطانيه من اصل ايراني ميا جعفري مجموعتها الاولى من السكارفات الحريريه التي حملت اسم

‘Ladybirds <3 Strawberry Cosmos’ ..
واستخدمت فيها طريقه مبتكره معروفه ب‘digi-broidery’ ويعني التطريز الرقمي..
المجموعه تمتلك حس مميز لها وتحملنا الى عالم سحري من الالوان الزاهيه مزيج من خيال طفله ونقوشات تبين اتقان الحرفيه الشرقيه..
تبعثرت رسومات جمعت بين احذيه لوبوتان احمر شفاه حلويات وكعكات صغيره التفت حول طيور خياليه مرصعه بالمجوهرات وفراشات ملونه..
تصاميم رائعه لابد من ان تمتلكها الفتاه العصريه في خزانتها ..
القطع تتواجد في محلات قليله جدا وبأعداد محدوده تبتدء اسعارها من 225 جنيه استرليني مايعادل ال1350 ريال سعودي ..
لا استبعد ان يكون لها مستقبل باهر ..فهي تتمتع بذوق راقي ومواكب للحاضر ..

ستكون قريبا السكارفات متوفره لدى هذه المحلات:
Debut – Newyork
Sauce – Dubai
Also – India
والمزيد قريبا ..

اترككم مع صور للتصاميم الجميله وللمزيد من الصور تفضلو بزياره الموقع   http://www.miajafari.co.uk

NEW PLANS FOR NEW YORK !!

New York fashion week is coming in a new look and events !..

the new plans  were reviled a couple of days ago in a presentation at the Lincoln Center the new location of the fashion week instead of Bryant park after holding it for years..

the space will be much bigger than the tents of Bryant park in every way..

the new chief planner ex-vogue staffer stephanie wolkoff explained what was going to be held then ..
-the guests will be walking on a huge red carpet..
-a spacious lobby which has a schedule of the events held those days..
-a larger runway ..
-the shows will be held at the Theater at Lincoln Center, a 969 seat venue with a larger backstage area..
-a very big video wall for the designers to play videos at their shows..
-the stage is the new name for the promenade , it has a 740 seating space..
-the Lincoln Center also has one presentation room (the box) which can hold up to 125 seats..
-another interesting thing is bar-coding the invitations by the designers so the guests would check-in themselves at the shows..
-thirteen poster-size television screens along 65th Street. Designers can live-stream their shows onto these..
-possibility of pop-up shops..
-fashion related lectures..

great news right??
