Red Carpet Minute: CFDA Awards 2012--The Red Carpet Trends

Plunging Necklines, High-Low Hems, Color, Metallics, Caftan, The Peplum...The Trends at the CFDA's:

The 2012 CFDA/Council of Fashion Designers Awards were this past Monday June 4th. and well as you might expect it was a Red Carpet Frenzy when it came to the Fashion, Styles, Looks and Trends that celebs, models, designers and fashion glitterati were giving. Usually at such a major Fashionista event like this, one can detect some trends on the red carpet; trends that will end up "in real life"--on the street, as they say. At this 2012 CFDA Awards, a lot of the ensembles we saw came fresh off the Resort 2013--yes 2013, Collections which are just being released to the Fashion Editors. So, basically what we saw Monday night is what we'll end up seeing in the stores next year...so without further ado, here are the 2012 CFDA Awards Red Carpet Trends that you will see NEXT Spring/Summer 2013:

Plunging:

Zoe Saldana in Prabal Gurung Fall 2012: Actress Zoe Saldana--in all her teeny tiny size zero glory-- wore a black gown by Singapore-born Nepal-raised NY-based designer Prabal Gurung. She showed several trends in one dress: the plunging neckline, of course, but then there was the "midriff cut-outs" plus the solid vs. sheer. All in all, she looked Edgy-Vampira Chic.

Julianne Hough in KaufmanFranco: NYC-based design duo Ken Kaufman and Isaac Franco KaufmanFranco designs are favorites of the red carpet girls. Actress Julianne Hough wore a plunging neckline side draped gown in "Chinese red" from their Fall 2012 Collection.

Bold Contrast Color Prints:

Kate Bosworth in Joseph Altuzarra Fall 2012: Actress Kate Bosworth looked fabulous in this printed and metallic dress featuring a high cowl neckline, "cut-out" midriff, and knee-length fluttery skirt--from design darling Joseph Altuzarra. LOVE the black ankle-strapped heels and matching clutch. Joseph is originally from Paris France (his father is French-Basque and his mother is Chinese-American) but now he is based out of NY and well his muse, as of late is Miss Bosworth:

Actress and Designer: Kate Bosworth and Joseph Altuzarra

U.S. Vogue Editor Anna Wintour in Marc Jacobs Resort 2013: Here's another example of the "Contrast Trim" trend--U.S. Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour wore a modified version of a dress designer Marc Jacobs showed recently for his Marc Jacobs Resort 2013 Collection. In the Look Book (on the right photo), the dress was ankle length and more A-line shaped,. On Ms. Wintour, it was modified to be a more sheath dress shape with waist-defining belt; very Oscar de la Renta-meets-Marc Jacobs...

Caftan and Cascade:

Marchesa Co-Designer Keren Craig in Marchesa: "The Other Marchesa Designer" Keren Craig, attended the 2012 CFDA Awards looking quite "Mykonos Chic" in a coral silk caftan gown with gold shoulder and waist embellishment...and a FABULOUS tan. THIS. Will. Be. The Dress. Of Summer 2013. Trust.

Ashley Olsen in The Row Resort 2013: Deep lilac silk caftan drop shoulder, oversized cascade front ruffle--shapeless caftan dress--this is what Miss Ashley Olsen gave for Monday night's 2012 CFDA Awards Red Carpet. She was so on-trend in terms of what we'll see come NEXT YEAR! Love this dress.

Peplum:

Devon Aoki: NY-born 5' 5" tall model/actress Devon Aoki wore this strapless gown from NYC-based brand Alice + Olivia--from designer Stacey Bendet. The gown is from the Fall 2012 Alice + Olivia Collection, however, in their collection Look Book (right photo above), it was shown in green. Aoki wore a brick-red version. As you may know, it's ALL ABOUT The Peplum for Fall 2012 but this style detail will continue onto next year. And we can see just how pretty this silhouette detail can be. I showed it in my NIKOLAKI Collection last Spring 2011 so you know I love me a PEPLUM!

Halter Drape:

Erin Heatherton Michael Kors Resort 2013: Illinois-born Victoria's Secret Supermodel (and Leonardo DiCaprio's girlfriend) Erin Heatherton, wore this turquoise-blue halter liquid silk jersey dress featuring a gold/metallic neckline and plunging back. It's very easy-breezy but at the same time very elegant and chic, and leave it to 5' 11" Heatherton to make it look FABULOUS!

It's from Michael Kors Resort 2013 Collection, as seen from the designer's Look Book photo above.

Embelished Shoulders:

Mandy Moore in Lela Rose Spring 2012: Singer/Actress Mandy Moore spotted this dress at Lela Rose's Spring 2012 Runway show, and the Texas-born designer customized it for her. On the runway (right photo above), the cream-colored dress was shown knee-length. Moore showed up to Monday night's 2012 CFDA Awards with the floor-length gown version. It's a simple gown with classic lines but what really "sells it", are those embellished cap sleeves.

Color Blocked Sportif:

Hillary Rhoda in Rebecca Minkoff: American model Hillary Rhoda arrived at the CFDA's in this navy/turquoise/ocean blue color-blocked athletic-inspired dress from San Diego-born NYC-based designer Rebecca Minkoff. Color blocking is HUGE for this Spring/Summer but will also continue on being a major trend through to next year.

High Low:

Model Joan Smalls in Michael Kors: Another big trend this Spring/Summer that we will also see next Spring/Summer is this high-low style. Girls are finally embracing this silhouette. It's flattering for tall girls and shorter girls who want to showoff your glorious legs...Speaking of legs, Model Joan Smalls looks "Demure Sexy" in this ivory high-low dress from Michael Kors. The accessories are PERFECT: love the simple gold ankle-strap heels and big gold bracelet, all finished off with a slicked-back I-just-got-off-the-Riviera hairstyle. St. Tropez Sublime.

Metallics:

Actress Lily Collins in Marchesa Fall 2012: Finally, we'll end with actress Lily Collins (yes, daughter of Phil), looking SOOOO cute in this gold high-neck, cap-sleeved fit-and-flare shaped dress from Marchesa Fall 2012. Lily is model-teeny-tiny so I wouldn't be surprised if this was the runway sample. She looked great in this dress. For those girls looking for a "new"-looking Prom Dress, this is the perfect style. Gold, silver or anything embellished will be a big trend come this Fall but it will spill over next year into Spring/Summer 2013, so ladies, keep an eye out for this Trend as well.

Paris Fashion Week Minute: Christian Dior and Balenciaga Spring/Summer 2013--Photos + FULL Runway Videos!!

DIVINE Dior PERFECTION and CHA-CHA Balenciaga Girl...

First Up--Christian Dior Spring/Summer 2013 by Raf Simons:

Strapless Chic: Christian Dior Spring//Summer 2013

For Belgian designer Raf Simons' first Dior Ready-to-Wear outing, he hit
a HOME RUN (his Haute Couture one was also a big HIT!). His Christian
Dior Spring/Summer 2013 Collection was PERFECTION. from beginning to
end. It was like "Galliano Who?" Any question that the Dior execs had
found their man, were squashed. This was Fashion for the 21st Century:
clean, minimalist, exquisite, interesting, UBER feminine, yet
very sexy. It referenced Dior's Bar Suit and jacket but took it to
another (rounded) level. The shapes were so directional and retail
friendly. My advice: I know Raf was just hired but...he already deserves
a BIG RAISE! Click HERE to read what Fashion Critic Doyenne Suzy Menkes had to say (worth reading because she pretty much sums it up!).

Balenciaga Spring/Summer 2013:

Cascade Girl: Balenciaga Spring/Summer 2013

Cha Cha Ruffles for Nicolas Ghesquière? Well, oui!! For his Spring/Summer 2013 outing for the House of Balenciaga, he put --as Nichole Phelps of Style.com said-- "an utterly modern gloss on
intense study of the house's archives". His girl is VERY TOUGH CHIC but this time, he softened her just a bit by referencing the great master--Cristobal Balenciaga--and his love of ruffle and flounce:

Cristobal Balenciaga Couture :The "Chou" wrap and gown from 1967

Balenciaga silk gazar baby doll dress 1958

The collection was FANTASTIC--great cuts, lots of asymmetrical high-low skirts, geometric tops and jackets and yes, lots for that TOUGH GIRL Diva the 21st Balenciaga "girl" is all about--Here are some more of my favorite looks:

Hairstyles 2014: Long and Medium Length hair

Crop Tops: NO. CROP. TOPS. Peplums: The peplum was everywhere last year; they were on dresses, shirts and jackets. Worn/Washed Out Jeans: Raw denim in mid-toned blue and the occasional unfinished hem is looming on the fashion horizon for jeans. The high-wasted, butt cheek bearing jean shorts that were so "in" in 2013 will longer be fashion acceptable so throw those OUT.

Cutouts: The revealing cutout details of 2013 dresses have been replaced by sheer fabric. You can switch to dresses or shirts with sheer paneling.

This trend is great for dresses and going out tops. Collared Shirts: The crisp, menswear-inspired dress shirt enjoys a makeover with inventively cool, contrasting color and/or textured collars and cuffs. The fashion-edgy sporty look is coming in a big way in 2014.

An appropriate expression that summarizes the evening fashion trends of 2014 is "elegant luxury." This time designers have been forgetting the color palettes, textures, shapes, pathos in the cuts and all other innovations that remind us of the past seasons. This time they're bringing back the traditional old-fashioned styles.

Deep cuts and open shoulders were chosen as the neck designs for designing the most seductive chest area. Given below are some popular trends that you can expect to see in the designs of evening dresses in 2014:

Vivid and spectacular color choices

Noble and elegant color schemes are the future of fashion in 2014, so they've been used in evening dresses too. Enlightening folds on the dresses

Folds, pleats and drapes are some common designing tactics used in the evening dresses of 2014.

Whether clothing or hairstyles, each new year ushers in new fashion trends.

Hairstyles 2014: Long and Medium Length hair

1. Braids:

You can wear them in umpteen styles - crown braids, cornrows, herringbone or fishtail braids, the school girl braid, the loose messy side braid, the waterfall braid, the braided top knot, the side swept braid etc.

2. The Ponytail:

Ponytails suit almost all face shapes and hold well on all types of hair. Gather your hair in a sleek, high ponytail for a sporty or professional look. 3. Loose Waves:

This 90's inspired hairstyle never seems to go out of fashion. If you have naturally curly hair, play up the curls on your hair. Hairstyles 2014: Short hairstyle

Shorter cuts have several advantages. Short hair is easy to maintain. Short styles make one look younger. Bangs and bobs gel well. Try different types of bangs - fringe, Cleopatra bangs, side swept bangs or asymmetrical bangs.

If we take a look at what designers have prepared for the prom dresses of 2014 then we find that the prom trends of next year seem to be the formalwear interpretations of street style and high-end fashion. Many celebrities like Selena Gomez, Vanessa Gomez, Chloe Moretz and Carly Rae Jepsen sparked these fashion trends this year by wearing such dresses at premiers and award ceremonies. Some most notable trends are being mentioned below:

Peplum: Over the course of last few months Peplum has exploded in the market of prom dresses. Peplum skirts, tops and other dresses are available at almost all locations and for all budgets. A highly notable trend in the lace designs is that they're being used as striking designs this time. Brighter hues: Brighter is better for prom dresses in 2014. Generally colored dresses used to dominate the space of prom dresses but this time designers have been shifting to the neon hued designs. The most awesome thing about this trend is that it can be easily combined with other trends (i.e. peplum or lace) for making an outstanding prom dress.

The rise of High-Low: This trend gives designers an opportunity to innovate with multiple colors, prints and design trends. You can find ombre everywhere - from nail polishes to hairstyles to prom dresses. Short dresses with sheer overlay: If you want to loo

k sexy on that prom night then this trend is coming out just for you. Dresses like these look like a combination of gown and party dress.

While each colour body and/or manufacturer has at least one dominant neutral colour scheme within their 2014 trend palettes, colour definitely comes into play.

Colours remain bright, bold and playful, which is a continuation - and furtherance - of current trends. a melding of both vibrant and deep hues... intertwined in intriguingly inventive colour combinations

Watery palettes, combining multiples shades of greens and blues, will no doubt be a favorite. With all the agates and high-sheen finishes seen at High Point, expect blue to sparkle.

It is refreshing to see in a New Year and witness the changing fashion seasons. Floral Patterns- A daunting concept for some of the more macho men but floral patterns seem to be making a huge impact on men's fashion. Colours- For the quiet and reserved gentleman, bright colours may seem a little much but this season they are set to be vital in the world of fashion.

Marc Jacobs, The brain behind the banned ad campaigns

Marc Jacobs the ORIGINATOR behind the banned suicide-themed fashion campaigns...

My name is Angel Barta. I am fashion designer.

I already wrote that Marc Jacobs has a big power at many brands such as Miu Miu, Prada, Nina Ricci, Ungaro, Balenciaga, thank to his supporter and colleague Katie Grand. He designs not just for Louis Vuitton. He wants to manipulate the whole fashion world. He's been stealing my designs and copying my photos for 5 years meanwhile keeps me in psychological torture. Read my story with him here.

Marc Jacobs makes his perverse desire for young women stand out in his ad campaigns. Here is one example the Daisy perfume ad with Daisy Lowe back in 2008.
She was only 18 years old on the photo.

In the Winter 2011 Miu Miu Campaign you can see what Marc Jacobs' real goal is with the soul terror that he does with me.

In the campaign photos you see a sad, almost crying, young lonely girl sitting on a railway track.

The campaign has been banned in the UK. The ASA said in its ruling: "Because the ad showed Hailee Steinfeld in a potentially hazardous situation sitting on a railway track, we concluded the ad was irresponsible and in breach of the Code in showing a child in a hazardous or dangerous situation."

In the campaign you see the young actress called, Hailee Steinfeld. Marc Jacobs really supports her, she is invited to his fashion shows, they are even together at the party, she mostly wears the designs of MJ, Miu Miu, Prada. Of Course Katie Grand worked at the photoshooting, like usual.

The girls of Marc Jacobs all gathered at his last fashion show for Louis Vuitton in 2013 October.

Sofia Coppola, Marc's main supporter.

Elle Fanning, Dakota Fanning, Hailee.. Marc Jacobs controls and supports all of them. No wonder, they came from all the way America to Paris only to see his show.

Another photo shoot around suicide

In 2013 June Vice magazine photo shoot which depicts models wearing PRADA outfits and posing as famous female writers who have committed suicide at the time of their deaths is causing a firestorm of controversy.

Authors who ended their own live featured in the editorial such as Virginia Woolf, clutching a boulder to drown herself in the river. By the way Marc Jacobs has a " George and Martha" tattoo from the movie " WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOLF". It's his favorite movie. Jacobs even featured in the "Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf' Editorial in 2011 March.

“I’ve seen the movie about 100 times. I have George and Martha tattooed on my arm.” —said Marc Jacobs for Harper's Bazaar. via limitmagazine

You also see on the photos: Sanmao, eyes wide open, PRADA stockings round her neck. They are all women, though there have been famous male writers who have committed suicide.

Marc Jacobs and Winona Ryder featured at Harper's Bazaar " Who's afraid of Virginia Wolf" editorial in 2011 March.

The photographer of the Vice editorial was Annabel Mehran, who is the editor-at-large of Olivier Zahm's Purple Magazine. This editorial was the idea of Marc Jacobs. Another perverse fantasy of his.

Here is a personal photo taken by Olivier Zahm at Marc Jacobs' house: " An improvised cabaret with Marc Jacobs, Ali Madhavi and Kate Moss, Paris" Marc Jacobs and Olivier Zahm are close friends. They spend a lot of time together. So it was easy for Jacobs to get the editor-at-large of Zahm's Purple magazine ( Annabel Mehran) to make that photoshoot.

Jacobs made a suicide ad campaign under his own name in 2009 Fall Marc Jacobs ad:

Marc and Katie Grand copied more of my photos and ideas in the Miu Miu ad campaigns....

Hailee is wearing lace gloves, big jewelry, crown, (my style) on the cover of Katie Grand's Love Mag, in the same issue as Elle Fanning, where they copied my photo

Elle Fanning on the cover of Katie's Love magazine... the concept inspired by my photos...

The same year the ad campaign of Marc Jacobs Oh Lola perfume was banned also....

The Banned Miu Miu campaign came out in 2011 April the same time when this American Vogue editorial with Hailey, Elle Fanning and Natalia Vodianova.

"Designer Marc Jacobs recently described his new fragrance Oh, Lola! as: "sensual", saying how the little sister scent to the hugely successful Lola is: "More of a Lolita than a Lola"

But it turns out the ad campaign to promote the fragrance is too sensual for some. The Advertising Standards Authority received several complaints after seeing 17-year-old actress Dakota Fanning posing with an oversize bottle of the scent between her legs..."

"Perfume advert starring the teenage actress has been pulled as the Advertising Standards Authority rules that the imagery is guilty of sexualizing a child.

Complaints stated that the Twilight star was being portrayed in an irresponsible and sexualized manner. The ASA responded by stating: "We noted that the model was holding up the perfume bottle which rested in her lap between her legs and we considered that its position was sexually provocative. We understood the model was 17 years old but we considered she looked under the age of 16. We considered that the length of her dress, her leg and position of the perfume bottle drew attention to her sexuality. Because of that, along with her appearance, we considered the ad could be seen to sexualize a child" text via Fashion Telegraph

Dakota Fanning was only 12 years old when she first starred in the Marc Jacobs campaigns

Marc Jacobs with the Fanning Sisters.

The Fanning sisters, who have both appeared in campaigns for Jacobs’ own eponymous brand, took a quick trip to Paris for Coppola's Tuesday evening fete and Jacobs' Wednesday morning show before heading back to New York.

Sofia Coppola and Marc Jacobs are very good friend. Jacobs got Sofia well-paying contracts many times. She has already featured in Louis Vuitton Voyage campaign with her father. She has already designd collections for Louis Vuitton... and the latest job she got was a collaboration with Louis Vuitton, where she designd handbags. Of course she is grateful to Marc. He casted Elle Fanning in her movie when she was only 13 years old.

Before Marc left Louis Vuitton in 2013 October for the last time he gave a well-paying contract for Sofia Coppola. Sofia launched a bag collection for Louis Vuitton, again. Marc counts on Sofia's silence. (She knows everything Marc did to me since the beginning)...
