WHO NEEDS PANTS: MARC JACOBS FW2013 RUNWAY

(English)

Need I say that the Marc Jacobs FW2013 runway show was THE show of NYFW. When I saw the images I thought: How fantastic! Who needs pants in the winter when you can have a dog wrapped around your neck. Lol! I'm kidiiiiing about the dog thing! I have to admit I have one of those dogs the real ones with teeth and all that my grandmother left to me when she passed away. Truth is I loved it,  less is more. Garance Doré described it as definitely the most chic of "walk of shames." Isn't it amazing to see how everyone always has it's own interpretation of things? She also has a really cool video of the show on her blog for us to indulge in. Check it out here.

Acaso necesito decirles que el show de otoño-invierno 2013 de Marc Jacobs fue EL show de la semana de la moda de Nueva York. Cuando vi las imágenes pensé: Qué fantástico! Quién necesita pantalones en el invierno cuando puedes tener un perro amarrado al cuello. Jajaja Estoy bromeaaaaando! Tengo que admitirles que tengo uno de esos perros de los de verdad con dientes y todo que mi abuela me dejó al morir. Lo cierto es que lo amé, menos es más.  Garance Doré lo describe como definitivamente la más chic "caminata de verguenza." Acaso no es increíble ver como todas las personas tienen su propia interpretación de las cosas? También tiene un video super cool del show en su blog para nuestro deleite. Denle un vistazo aquí.

FASHION EDITORIAL OF THE WEEK: ANTHEMOESSA

I just recently found out about Grey magazine thru Garance Doré. She spoke so highly of it that I thought I needed to see the magazine for myself. Of course since there's absolutely no way I could ever find that magazine in Guatemala I had to look it up online. Sometimes I get overwhelmed thinking about all the great magazines I have absolutely no knowledge of their existence. I wish I had easy access to all of them (easy physical access, I still like to go thru the pages of a magazine and collect them). 

Anyways... I visited their website and completely fell in love with their aesthetics. It's refreshing to find magazines that still maintain a true identity and creative integrity. For this week's fashion editorial of the week post I chose one of Grey Magazine's fashion editorial.  I highly recommend that you visit the magazine online and delight yourself going thru their photographs and other interesting and intelligent content.

Recientemente supe de la existencia de Grey Magazine a través de Garance Doré. Habló tan bien de la reviste que pensé que tenía que verla con mis propios ojos. Por supuesto, como es imposible encontrar una revista como esa en Guatemala tuve que buscarla en línea. Aveces me abruma pensar en todas las revistas increíbles de las cuales no tengo conocimiento de su existencia. Desearía poder tener fácil acceso a todas ellas (fácil acceso físico, todavía soy de las que me gusta pasar las páginas de una revista y coleccionarlas).

En fin... Visité su página web y me enamoré completamente con su estética. Es refrescante encontrar revistas que aún mantienen una verdadera identidad e integridad artística. Para el editorial de moda de esta semana elegí uno editorial de la revista Grey. Les recomiendo que visiten la revista en línea y se deleiten viendo sus fotografías y otros contenidos interesantes e inteligentes.

FALL 2012 CAMPAIGNS: LOUIS VUITTON

Yesterday while having my daily dose of fashion news I found an article on NewYorkMagazine.com about this Fall's 2012 Campaigns, from Versace to Prada to Emporio Armani, some I loved and some I hated but the one that really left me in awe was Louis Vuitton. I had already seen a video on Garance Doré's series Pardon my French and thought it was an absolute display of pure genius, however it was their campaign photography by Steven Meisel that truly captivated me. Without a doubt a work of art.

Even though I'm not a big LV fanatic I do have to admit that Marc Jacobs vision for this seasons show was pure magic, transporting us to the beginning of the 20th Century back to the golden age of railroading (like Nicole Phelps for Style.com describes it), the young Coco Mademoiselle era. 

With all the futuristic collections presented for this Fall 2012, Louis Vuitton's time traveling was a breath of fresh air, simply put something beautiful to look at, even if you're not going to wear their clothes (or oversized hats) you have to be able to recognize when something has been impeccably executed. Two thumbs up for Louis Vuitton's Fall 2012 Campaign (and runway show).
