Fashion trend: The slip dress

HOW TO WEAR A SLIP DRESS

A fashionable feature of the 90’s, is the slip dress and it is making an effortless impression as this season’s must-have item. Alexander Wang, Burberry and Paco Rabanne have all featured this classic dress in their latest collections.

It can be quite daunting trying to wear a dress which quite frankly looks like lingerie. Here are some fantastic tips so that you can wear the slip dress with a new found confidence.

Keep it cool, relaxed and simple. Try wearing a basic black slip dress with thin spaghetti straps and style it with strappy sandals.

There are hundreds of ways to wear a slip dress but one of the simplest and most classic ways to be styled daytime, you can wear turtleneck pullovers long sleeve shirts, blouses or basic shirts underneath your slip dress. If you're not prepared to go braless then a T-shirt worn underneath will give you the coverage you need.

Take your dress to dinner by wearing with an open cardigan. I really like the contrast and the mix of materials. For maximum effect add a pop of colour. Rock this elegant look with a pair of this season's sexy mules.

The slip dress lends itself extremely well to layering, and I could easily wear one underneath a jumper, or over a t-shirt.

Length is key. Too short and it looks too close to sleepwear; midi or floor-length looks more modern. Try wearing one under a skirt or another dress so you can see a bit of lace poking out underneath the hem. Or just opt for a silk camisole worn under a biker jacket with jeans.

Don’t be afraid to hide that waist, grab a belt, wrap it around the slip dress and show off your features.

The cut is key, anything on the bias is usually really flattering as it hugs the small part of your waist and skims over your hips and a good fabric is essential, too, a good quality silk will smooth out lumps and bumps, not accentuate them.

Here are a few chic slip dress pieces that will ensure you are on trend this season.

VAMFF 2017 - The Fashion Advocate Runway @ Luna Park

Saturday 11th March

March is a month of food (Good Food Month) and fashion, two things that I have yet to see go together. I want to see a runway inspired by food, with each collection accompanying a course/bunch of dishes.

Set at Luna Park one of the events we're going to this year is a show advocating local designs and creations - actually making it locally and not in china/Bangladesh. The Fashion Advocate Runway ..."brings together independent labels from around Australia to showcase the cool, the quirky and the quintessential (word of the year) look of Australian fashion, as well as promote local production and ethical manufacturing". Locally designed and made clothing. If it's like Cue, don't look at the price tag!

Smart people order pizza delivered. This area is an expensive party zone. I wonder if she knows we can see her ass, Sarah says yes, she's been working on that ass and is proud to parade it around me. Me? I'd feel all exposed and nasty, though underwear and swimwear in this century is designed to show it all off.

It's like roller coaster tycoon but no one dies (also a lot smaller) - Charlie on Luna Park

Held at Luna Park we were delighted to attend! We forgot to invite the professor though, who tells me yes he can drink $90+ of drinks, as there was an open bar. There's seats and standing tickets. All seats are called VIP, to make almost everyone feel special XD Reminds me of the circus instead of A-C reserve it was platinum, diamond and A res. Seats are around $90, and include a seat (lol) drinks and a showbag. There were a couple handful of standing spots.

Being fashion the attendees were sometimes works of art themselves! Like pompom girl, I believe she's one of the designers. I have no idea how to make pompoms that dense and all packed together...

While it was a cloudy day, it wasn't cold (I do recall it being summer that week) though the lighting was dull and the 'r' word was forbidden. Above is what the unedited lighting actually looked like on the day.
While there's plenty of drinks there was no food, except a bite of a brownie. For the ticket price I had expected canapes. But at the same time food and fashion seem to be mortal enemies. If you're after the open bar you want to arrive when doors open.

Doors opened at 6.30pm for a 8pm show (it actually started at 8.20pm) and we arrived around 7pm with sushi (an entree). With a drink in hand, Remedy Kombucha and camera in the other we were runway ready! We also bought spare batteries which was a great idea.

BYO Sushi! Any assorted $15 bento. We were disappointed that there were no canapes.

Bras are overrated on runway. We never see them unless a. it's a lingerie show b. it's a wedding show and we're working the dressing rooms.

A sold out show with 300+ seats and 12 designers. There was a bit of everything from the office to bed, and very unique dry-clean only ideas. The show went for 30 minutes which was normal, it's absolutely amazing how much time and work goes into events, much like fine dining just to present something.

Knitted & Winter Ready! I love that Elmer dress, so colourful and fun! Also all the crazy pompoms! How do you wash these things? Dry clean and spot clean only I'm afraid!

One of my favourite collections featuring nipple tape and sprinkles! More designers should do sprinkles, they're so much fun! Playing with colours, textures and fabrics.
The end was a bit abrupt and we were left waiting for an ending, there wasn't one. Instead there was a delay before the organizer accepted flowers. Normally the show ends with all the models doing a walk through clapping, followed by their designers.

After the show we explored the area, the bathrooms were gross so there was a huge regret for wearing a ballgown! They really need to renovate. There was an arcade of games, as well as an retro air stream converted into a snack stand with all the stuff you'd expect. Somehow I'd expected this place is be bigger and more alive on a Saturday Night...

Luna Park by Night. You can check out all the pictures here.

I love showbags! They're actually my favourite part of any show, I don't care much for fashion (a friend invited me) as they never show things from other centuries and era. And there wasn't any food at this event.

What's in this bag? A lot of spend and save vouchers, a couple notebooks, hair gel, those nail filers (in a matchbook), a bite of a brownie (more packaging than product), hair spray (?) ad my two favourites: a tape measure (that now lives in my bag) and candle - I love candles!

We had a fun time at the runway at Luna Park, and look forwards to many more shows and events to go! Do we support local fashion? Nope, it's not affordable, though we mightn't be the target market there. I do support local art those, especially fun brooches on etsy!

Secrets between Kanye West,Marc Jacobs, The Chanel exhibition

Magyarul ITT

My name is Angel Barta, I'm writer and fashion designer. Marc Jacobs has been stealing my ideas for 5 years. He fooled me with love and kept me in psychological torture. He is a cruel Godfather behind his funny Sponge Bob Mask.

Let me unfold a few secret connections between Marc Jacobs, Kanye West and Hungarians. Marc Jacobs has been using my talent for 5 years. He steals my ideas (and talented artists ideas from my country) not only for himself but for his friends also. For example his long-time friend Sofia Coppola copied my photos and my style for the Miss Dior Cherie Campaign. Read it here with evidences.

Have you heard that Kanye West recently stole a more than 40 years old Hungarian song?

Kóbor János the singer of Omega claimed he will sue Kanye for sampling Gyönyhajú Lány(The organs from New Slaves) and not crediting them.He already hired an international lawyer to start the confrontation. They can't sue Kanye yet because it was only played on walls and on SNL and it's not official. But if it mades the Album he promised he will step in the ring.
It's funny because the 66 buildings experience was filmed on the singer's 70th birthday.

Many people have identified the sample at use towards the end of the new track that Kanye West premiered on (almost) 66 buildings and Saturday Night Live this past weekend.
The music? A Hungarian band called Omega, who released ”Gyöngyhajú Lány” (translated as The Girl with Pearly Hair) in 1969.
Check Omega above, and listen to that section of "New Slaves" at the three minute mark below.

Kanye is a very good buddy of Marc Jacobs. They have worked together, Kanye designed trainers for Louis Vuitton. He flies all the way to Paris to watch front row every single show of his friend Marc. He even sings the songs Marc asks him to. You remember the Runaway song by Kanye, it was the idea of Jacobs, even the clip was his fantasy.

Jacobs told Kanye to steal that Hungarian song.

Marc introduced me to Kanye when I was at the dinner after his fashion show.

Kanye has tried doing his own line, he designed clothes for women and had his fashion show in Paris. Kanye loves Hungarian women, just like his buddy Marc. So there were some Hungarian models at his fashion show also.

and let's see the Chanel!
Watch the video I recorded at the Little Black Jacket Exhibition in Paris.

Did you know that Marc Jacobs is an ego-maniac,
a real puppet master who wants to manipulate
the whole fashion world?

I was surprised to see that most of the celebrities, whose photos were displayed at the Chanel exhibition, are in tight connection with Marc Jacobs.

You would think that Marc Jacobs has nothing to do with Chanel, but actually he controls the design team there too, not just at Louis Vuitton. He has friends and and ex colleagues at almost every big brand. He wants to control the whole fashion world! Karl Lagerfeld takes the photos in the Chanel campaigns of Marc's favorite models. Marc decides who is the campaigns, who opens and closes the Chanel show. ( for example Cara Delevingne, Marc Jacobs discovered her and supports her from the background.) Jacobs wants to control the entire fashion world. He gives ideas for many brands, not just for Louis Vuitton.He secretely controls Chanel also.

Marc Jacobs has been stealing my ideas for 5 years. He copies my style and photos for many brands.
He fooled me with love promises. I believed him for 2 years, then I started to see clearly that he just used my fresh and unique ideas for his own success. I stopped talking to him and did not give him more ideas and photos. As a revenge to hurt me, he gave all my dreams for other girls from my country. I wrote a book, about the first 2 years of my relationship with him, " The Secret Love Affair in Paris". After he read my book, he knew everything about me. All my dreams and wishes. For example, my book starts with my most ardent wish, to open and close the Chanel fashion show with Lagerfeld. He made that come true for another Hungarian girl, who was 7 cm shorter than the minimum height.

Dakota, the favourite actress of Marc Jacobs. He took her under his wings, when she was only twelwe years old. He even made his collection in children size, so she could fit in the clothes and poise in his MJ ad campaign in the grown up outfits. Dakota is older now, Marc still takes care of her carrier. She is sitting front row at every single Marc Jacobs fashion show.

She is the face of the Marc Jacobs Oh Lola perfume, the ad campaign was banned in the UK,. You can read it here, why.

Her little sister Elle Fanning is participating in the exhibition. She has to poise on the photo the way I do. The picture is a copy of my original idea. (At the Little Black Jacket exhibition you can see the photo of Kanye West right next to picture that was copied after my original photo.)

Elle Fanning is a young actress, she played the main role in the Movie of Sofia Coppola, who is by the way a long time friend and supporter of Marc Jacobs.

In the last 5 years Marc Jacobs has copied hundreds of my photos and ideas. Here are a few of them.

The Marc by Marc Jacobs campaign starring Elle Fanning.

The sisters are wearing most of the time the designs of Marc Jacobs and Katie Grand.

Dakota and Elle Fanning came to Paris just to watch the last show
of their supporter, Marc Jacobs

Marc's girls. Elle and Dakota Fanning, Sofia Coppola and Hailee Steinfeld.

Before Marc left Louis Vuitton he gave a well-paying contract for Sofia Coppola again. Marc counts on Sofia's support. Sofia launched a bag collection for Louis Vuitton.

I'd like to mention an other person, whose photo I saw at the exhibition, and who is a very good friend of Marc. Kristen McMenamy, the grey haired famous model.

She works with Katie Grand most of the time...

Marc loves kissing Kirsten as you see in the photo...

Kirsten was poising in the Louis Vuitton campaign

She was also on the cover of Katie Grand's Love magazine.

Kirsten and Katie Grand, very good friends.

At the latest Marc Jacobs Fall 2013 fashion show, Kirsten's 18 years old daughter, Lily was walking topless wearing nothing but high-waisted shorts. Her first big campaign will be the next Marc Jacobs fall campaign. Read the details on:
