Tempting Tuesday-Isabel Marant

Isabel Marant has always been one of my all time fav designers. She started designing accessories in 1989 and launched her full ready-to-wear collection five years later. The label is an indie favorite among fashion mavens and magazines, and is known for minimalist, bohemian clothing: short, casual dresses, loose-fitting knits, slouchy trousers, tailored jackets, and lush scarves. Marant created a lower-priced diffusion line, Etoile, in 1999 which soon developed a cult following of it's own.


Known for her signature studded cuffed ankle booties (which I might add have a waiting list that spans the world a few times around) her Fall 2010 collection shows us a different side of her.
Although the chief theme this year in fashion is the 80's, Marant takes us back to the 50's with fitted jeans rolled up mid-calf, faded denim jackets, sparkly tees, cat-eye eye liner, high ponytails, and long dangly earrings.


The show was essentially a teasing out of the many different ways to riff on that core look. There was a stripey rugby sweater worn with short silver paillette leggings, a leather-sleeved baseball jacket with cropped red motorcycle leather pants, a white rabbit jacket and black capris, and so on.

Though there is an inherent theme running rapid through all the designers this year as though following a temp plate...Marant has enough going down the runway to ensure her fans will be flocking to her boutiques.

A Sneek Peek of Alexander McQueens Pre Fall 2010 Show

Even though Alexander McQueen sadly left us, his fashion geniousness lives on in his final collection that will be shown in Paris. Graphic suits, techno-printed gowns, and steampuck skirts and dresses are wholly McQueen yet feel fresh and new. So take a look below to soak in all the gorgeousness before his designs present at his last fall show.
