The hottest art
I have already mentioned trend to wear sweatshirts, which are conquer a catwalks not for a first time. Celebrities, bloggers, and fashion addicts consider them as glam as they are comfortable. However i suppose that the new black is painterly clothes. Fragments of the triptych «The Garden of Earthly Delights» by Hieronymus Bosch were used on dresses in 2012 (Carven) and now we can see echoes of the past on sweatshirts. Classics is actual again — paintings of Raphael, Caravaggio and Perugino prove it, they had left museums and gradually moved to our bodies. (Aloha from deer) (Sugarpills Clth) Apart from the traditional vision designers offer to wear a variety…

Stockholm Syndrome
Sweden is a very multi-faceted country: numerous islands, private Lapland, snow-haired peoples, concept design. Unfortunately, I saw only Stockholm, but for me it was enough to feel the local flavor and lifestyle. Stockholm is fairly despondent city and it is not surprising. The daylight hours are very short, all shops and restaurants close early, the only joy — museums. As for art it is a Swedish passion. Sweden is a very conceptual country, just a kingdom of contemporary art. Why is this post called «Stockholm Syndrome»? The phenomenon when negative and aggressive behavior attracts people is the essence of the Swedish fashion. Stockholm is the city of contradictions: atrocious weather…

Reconstruction of the Finnish costume: Beauty transformation (part 2)
The Finnish history of the 20th century is not so simple. Transformation of the standards at that time has played a huge role in the culture and style of the Finnish people. In towns, make-up was no longer considered as frivolous as it had been before. Painting your lips and powdering your nose — even in public places — was positively fashionable. Women found their role models in the great stars of the silver screen. The sales and promotion of cosmetic grew. Shops offered both Max Factor and Elizabeth Arden cosmetics and Eau de Cologne 4711. Coco Chanel`s perfume Chanel No. 5 had been on the market since the begining…

Crazy for art
Recently I’ve been thinking how to make print in the form of Michelangelo’s frescoes on my sweatshirts, and world designers almost in unison decorated their collections by the famous paintings. Skirts look like naturalistic paintings, dresses with accurate brushstrokes and tops with surrealism — it’s definitely cool! The first thing what attracted my attention was a winter 2014 collection of Dolce and Gabbana. There are no words to describe my feelings for it. It is indescribably beautiful, elegant and has a national flavor. Montreal cathedral frescoes, crowns, luxury and gold. Certainly it is divine. Givenchy Men’s collection caused a serious religious scandal. Tisci borrowed the images of saints from William Bouguereau. Fragments of the «Pieta»…

Even when she married the poet Paul Eluard, she continued her search. At one moment Elena has created her own unique style, calling herself by the name Gala. It was a coincidence, and ‘gala’ is a celebration in Spanish. However, the name was fixed forever. She loved the soiree, luxury and wealth, but her main feature is the unrivaled intuition.

Flashy and bright
Desigual is a spanish fashion brand based in Barcelona. Casual style of the cloths is so unexpectedly bright: floral prints, surreal graffiti, intensive patterns. It is very similar to Barcelona. This city is full of colors and unexpected combonations. Desigual is so beautiful like a flowers on la Rambla. The cloths is perfect as a sculptor Gaudi architecture, but it`s an acquired taste. Not everyone dared so much that would suit a bright clothes. If would like to wear this brand, you must have a refined sense of style. To be honest i was very afraid to buy such cloths, worrying about the wrong collaboration. Once i had found…
