Christopher Kane Spring RTW '11 a burst of freshness.

       Spring is around the corner and we are definitely feeling it in the air. The weather the last few days has been so warm and spring like, it's been encouraging to us. Looking at Christopher Kane's Spring Ready to wear collection for 2011 we can really feel the freshness especially with his choice of colours. Using perforated leather with a vinyl coating  gives  a more shine, more of a clean allure and mixing that with lace and patterns that look peacock like, he takes the tea time look to a futuristic time. This collection goes perfect with springs new love for orange cosmetics.

DENIS GAGNON, lovely, fun and technically interesting.















 We loved the choice of colours and textures from fake furs to folded chiffon, to intricate weavings of cotton. It had a sort of futuristic cotton candy feel to it. Denis recently started doing business in the Asian markets. Hopefully this means we will be seeing more creations like these! Uninhibited, free and so much fun!

There was also alot of black pieces which we really liked too! But our coup de coeur was the more playful choices of colour combinations! Way to go Denis, oh and you inspire us too!!!!

The Bag Dress

    This type of dress can look fabulous on most shapes if accessorized well. We've seen it around for a long time now and it keeps coming back. It's classic and versatile, kind of like the little black dress. Cacharel just put out their Pre-Fall Collection for 2011 which included the famous bag dress. We like it.


Donna Karan had a beautiful bag dress in her Spring 2007 collection.




There's an understated feel to each of these dresses, yet each one is elegant and playful. This style can transcend threw each season and last threw the years.  We chose to show beige/brown dresses because of their versatility and class. Paired with black or cream, all of these would be killer.
