Oh how I wish I could travel to Milan to See the beautiful works of Fendi by Karl Lagerfeld. This collection for fall is avant-garde!! I love the mix of the beautiful craftsmanship of the fur and natural fibers. The color palette was your typical black, neutral camels and browns. I love the drama and movement of the fur on each outfit as the then models strut their stuff down the runway. Check out this clip I found from Youtube:
Did you love this collection? I actually love the entire collection this time around. Karl Lagerfeld is so genius in his designs and it shows through his work. These are my favorite pieces from the collection:
I love the mix of fur, leather,silk and wool together for fall. If I had the money to buy off the runway I would buy these pieces. I have always wanted a real fur jacket for going out to events or a night on the town. I know owning a real fur is shunned upon animal rights activists, but it is so darn luxurious!! Some of the celebrities that were at the show includes Amy Winehouse, Jessica Alba, and Rihanna:
I loved what Rihanna was wearing! I beat it was a Fendi piece. I found this photo showing the entire outfit:
If you like this dress and much as I do I found some pieces that are similar along with a shoe and clutch to wear. The first piece is from Bluefly.com, it is a Jill Stuart black sateen ruffle “Ava” dress for $225. I felt this dress had similar shaping like Rihanna’s. The shoes are from macys.com, Nine West “Bilson” Ankle-Strap Sandal for $89.00 and the clutch is a Alfani “Genova” Patent for $68.
Well, that’s it for today!!
