FASHION REPORT: S/S 09 - THE

Welcome to the new season!There is always a lot of excitement when discovering the new pieces we’ll be wearing during next months and this time makes no exception.I believe it is going to be one of my favourite season for a while. Every fashion magazine is defining it as the “no-trends” or the “perma-trends” season and this is why I’m going to love it sooo much.When it comes to clothes and accessories, I have changed my habits during the last few years. More than focusing on how much an item costs I now consider how useful it really could be in my wardrobe and if it will still work for years to come. I want to buy pieces that are of the moment but I also want them to be forever pieces. And fortunately, there are a lot of fabulous pieces this season, but there are no big trends to follow and this will allow us to buy the ones we like the most now and wear them for years and years. Besides, there will almost certainly be pieces that you already have.

Following are my investment picks for S/S 2009, 10 key buys that update my wardrobe but will also stand the test of time. No must-haves this time, but must-keeps. Leather jacket

If you don’t have one yet then now it’s time to invest. Make sure it is made of butter soft leather so it will last many many years.

Find out how it could ease also the most severe or smart outfit or rock out a simple look made by jeans and a plain t-shirt.

Every cut can work in my opinion, biker-style, cropped, boxy.

If you want one that goes with everything buy it black but also don’t be afraid to invest in a more colourful, flashier (electric blue, yellow) one as it will transform you outfit in a stand-out. Also think about a metallic one… wow, that will really make an entrance!

Jeans – preferably destroyed/ripped (acid or not) skinny ones, (see Balmain’s for high end or Current/Elliott and Siwy)

This time jeans are not just an everyday basic but become a real fashion buy. Whenever it is a pair of jeans or shorts or a miniskirt, ripped ones are the key. They are not new to anyone of us but what really makes the difference from past years is more how they are worn than the piece itself. Choosing a skinny pair will make them more revealing and sexy than any others to me.

P.S. If you decide to follow Balmain’s rock-chic style (which I just L O V E) and rock any trend, rock it hard. Use chains, bondage details and avoid patent PVC or anything chunky. In a few words, keep it luxury.

P.P.S. You won’t see me wearing the boyfriend jeans (not my kind of) but if it was the case I would have bought them straight legged and wore them turned up at the bottom with something really feminine or with a thigh masculine piece to balance.

Classic Chanel chain-handle bag

Created by Madamoiselle Coco in February 1955 (named after that date 2.55) it is still THE bag everyone from celebrities to fashion editors aims to have. I know it will last a lifetime and I will be wearing it for ever teamed with pegs or ripped jeans and killer heels and any lady-like outfit to enhance it. As it is a huge investment we can be tempted in buying a black one, but instead I’ll stick to colour (maybe red).

One-shoulder dress

It emerged in the fashion scene in 2007 as a courtesy of Miss Kate Moss (not because she was wearing one but as one of the pieces designed for her 1^st Topshop collection – it was white or yellow) and never went out of style since then. Come 2008, the look was on everyone and in every catwalk show (see Balmain’s amazing ones) and we will see it again in 2010! So, apart from making us feel so feminine and seductive, I can’t see any reason not to buy one. Choose it in black as you won’t get bored of it.

Harem pant/Peg trousers

I think we are no more scared by shapes and these pants are no longer only for the braves. We got used to them, they are easy, relaxed and, last but not the least, sooo comfortable. We just have to remember to pair them with a tiny cropped jacked or top/blouse with a narrow belt to accentuate our waist. Don’t be afraid to think out of the box!

Gold or metallic accessories

We can’t go wrong with metallic accessories, whether a pair of shoes, a bag or a belt. They can soon update our look and make it seem fresher and so new season. Look at the gold and silver shoe boots at Givenchy! If you then choose gladiator sandals, heeled or flat, you will take 2 birds with one stone! The gladiators were a must-have in the past seasons but like some other pieces, they have become a staple nowadays.

Statement blouse

A statement blouse in white or cream or better, in nude, which has always been one of my favourite colour (it never goes out of style and is so romantic), is timeless. It is the new alternative to the classic white shirt and it can be wear with almost anything.

Leopard

I’m not a big fan this time but as I saw the leopard print dresses in pink and light blue at Lanvin I was hypnotized by the beauty of it. It is a younger alternative to the classic one.

Clutches

Whether oversized and in a bright colour for the day or small and elegant (box, studded, super-shiny, diamantè) for the evening they are still the most feminine bags around. I love them all!

Vintage jewelry

They have a one-of-a-kind allure that makes them unique and priceless. And they are the easiest pieces to buy from vintage as you rarely fail. We never got too much of them!

P.S. I love pearls and I can’t get enough! They do last for ever and will never go out of style whether we choose a simple and classic or a fashion-inspired string (look for vintage Chanel).

I would have written about many more trends but I think it is enough for now, it could have become a bit confusing (to me first thing!).

Diesel S.p.A. is an Italian design company. It is best known for clothing aimed at the young adult market, particularly jeans, but the brand can now be found on everything from underwear to fragrances. The company is owned by its founder Renzo Rosso, and is based in Molvena in northern Italy.

The company was founded by Renzo Rosso and his former boss Adriano Goldschmied of the AG Jeans company, in 1978. Diesel's milestone years include 1985 (Renzo's complete acquisition of the company), 1988 the hiring straight out of fashion college of current head designer and Creative Director Wilbert Das, 1991 (beginning of the international marketing strategy) and 1996 (opening of Diesel's first flagship store on New York City's Lexington Avenue). In February 2007, the company launched a major intimates and beachwear division for men and women that is carried in the retail and department stores. Diesel Black Gold was announced in November 2007. The company has around 2,200 employees in 18 subsidiaries across Europe, Asia and the Americas. Its products are available in 5000 retail outlets, of which 300 are Diesel-branded stores. Annual sales were approximately €1.2 billion in 2005, and €1.3 billion in 2009. Revenue is largely derived from denim sales, but also extremely successful and influential ranges of accessories and children's wear - Diesel Kid.

Production of denim jeans is based mainly in Italy.

The biggest store is located in Milan, Italy.

Diesel store in Krakow, Poland.

From the very beginning, Diesel's design team turned their backs on the style-dictators and consumer forecasters of the fashion establishment and let their own tastes lead them. It is for this reason that Diesel immediately became a leader in developing styles, fabrics, manufacturing methods and quality control, guaranteeing an outstanding quality product.

The company now views the world as a single, border-less macro-culture. The Diesel staff reflects this: a wide variety of people and personalities from all parts of the globe, creating an unpredictable, dynamic vitality and energy within the company. Diesel people and their working methods are so unconventional, and yet productive, that they have been profiled in countless magazines, newspapers and documentary television programs, and have been studied by consulting organizations, international conglomerates, universities and business schools.

Diesel's "historical moments" include mile-stones like 1978 (creation of the brand name), 1985 (Renzo's complete acquisition of the company), 1991 (beginning of the international marketing strategy) and 1996 (opening of Diesel's first flagship store on New York City's Lexington Avenue).

Ever since the beginning, Renzo Rosso believed in addressing the world with one product and one language, and one of his first steps was building a solid and vast distribution platform stretching across all 5 continents.

Most of Diesel's current production is outsourced, to small and medium-sized companies. Production of denim jeans is based exclusively in Italy. All international logistics operations (wholesale and retail) are centrally managed and carefully controlled.

Today Diesel is a global concern with a consolidated annual turnover of 540 billion Lire (US$ 320 millions), 85% of which is generated outside Italy. The Headquarters are located in Molvena, in the north-eastern part of Italy, where the company manages 12 subsidiaries across Europe, Asia and the Americas. Diesel employs over 1,000 people worldwide.

The company has almost 200 retail outlets worldwide and more than 1,300 employees. Annual sales are $1.220 million. Diesel records 60% company growth by every year.

Diesel was founded in 1978 by Renzo Rosso.

Tight Jeans Beautiful Images

Over the last several years, experts say they’ve been seeing more young women at a healthy weight complain of symptoms. The culprit: too-tight jeans.

“The nerve, in some people, is susceptible to compression,” says Dr. John England, a New Orleans neurologist and a member of the American Academy of Neurology. The femoral cutaneous nerve, he explains, runs from the outside of the pelvis and through the thigh. “It is a pure sensory nerve -- it doesn’t go to muscles or provide strength. Anything that is tight around there could potentially compress the nerve that goes there.”
