Halston the third and Marios Schwab join forces

Halston the third and Marios Schwab join forces

This season’s much anticipated Marios Schwab show was situated in a warehouse deep in Manhattan’s Chelsea area.  Inside was quite a different scene and the lights appeared at a minimum and the music was turned to a maximum, the model in turn sashayed down the runway to the soundtrack of a pounding disco beat.  This was the backdrop to London-based designer Marios third collection for Halston.

However this event wasn’t a show but instead an intimate presentation, where only a small number of just 27 outfits were revealed, each creation was worn by a different model.

The label as always revealed a certain iconic 70’s edge and one that is famed by the fashion house.  This season the autumn and winter collection for Halston certainly ticked all the right boxes.  Pieces showcased included lean white wool column dresses with lined up cut-outs, pleated silk Grecian goddess dresses with simple scattered sequin embellishments or a over the top scatter of sequins, full-sequinned dresses that glowed in the venues darkness, cropped Mongolian lamb jackets and lean, power trousers, which were worn with a slim tunics.

The talented Marios Schwab has certainly managed to revive this brand for 2011 and many of the pieces will most likely be working their way into next season’s fashionista’s wardrobes!

Fashionably in tune.

Fashionably in tune.

There are several new faces that have hit the music scene this season, including the likes of Florrie, Cibelle and the hip new girl band, ‘The Like’.  All of them offer an eccentric yet very different style and one which many of us want to portray this summer.

First up is the new eccentric Cibelle, the loud and in your face fashionista offers a mixed up style, which is extremely true to her Brazilian roots.  Her sound offers soothing and floaty vocals, kooky percussion, and electronica.  This is all teamed with an acoustic guitar in order to create a sound that is most certainly unique.

Her look is similar to that of CSS’s style but has a few more paint splatters thrown into the mix and then of course there is the endless array of multi-coloured spandex and glittering high-shine sequins!

Even though this mash up may sound a little eccentric and daring to try, the insanely statement pieces seem to just work, however none of this young musicians looks are contrived.  If you wish to steal this young starlets style then be sure to get yourself down to an American Apparel store and invest in an all in one bodysuit!

Next up is Florrie; her look is almost the utmost opposite to that of Cibelles and offers a laid back casual yet sophisticated style.  The new singer on the scene works striped tees, denim hotpants and boyish beanie hatwear during the day, then swaps this casual cool look for a groomed and lady like glamour when it hits evening, both looks are equally as flattering on the singers svelte figure.

The singer has currently been mixing with the hippest of hip remixer’s in order to create a robotic yet charming pop sound that is right on for summer 2010.

Finally we have “The Like’, the of the moment band mix retro organs with Brit-pop guitars and in turn create endless melancholy lyrics, often about boys!

Their style works ultra on trend pieces with an added 60’s edge, if you wish to steal their style make sure you obtain a few on trend A-line dresses, team these with cutesy ballet flats and socks.
