Oooh gloriousness – something good has happened to our wardrobe with the latest collection from our fave designers.
You know you’re going to love a label when the inspiration comes from music such as Joy Division, The Clash, Phoenix, Pavement and Nirvana who rock the look for Modern Amusement. Signature prints and fun wrap up the goods in glorious style. We lick.
Drop-dead gorgeous looks to fall in love with include, the Sabine Blouse in sheer (so now) and silk chiffon; Picasso & St Germain Boyfriend Shirts; Modern Idol Tees (Nirvana = rock chic); and the Lou Lou Dress (prettiness is this!).

Modern Amusement

It was gloriously over the top with oversized collar and swoops of fabric flowing over the red carpet, but Heidi Klum pulled it off in a drop-dead red Galliano gown.
Sharp and simple jewellery took the backseat instead of hogging the limelight and was a refreshing change from the hundreds and thousands of diamonds on show at the Oscars (see Nicole Kidman post). Less is best.

It has to be Dior! The competition was high but something so striking about the Dior campaign had us coming back for more.
While we love a fashion story and the beautiful crowd, we need clothes more. Dior strips back and gives us the look and nothing but the look. We are freefalling into our overdraft just to get the goods now.
The winner is… agree or disagree? Let us know…
