The Swede Life from Stockholm Fashion Week

Fashion Weeks around the world are about to begin!  Which means, we’re about to see what we’ll be wearing next Spring!

Carin Wester (an amazing Swedish designer), stepped outside the box a little for her Spring/Summer 2011 collection.  Instead of women wearing menswear…the male models walked down the runway wearing womenswear inspired pieces!  Yes, a little odd…but the male models looked pretty cool with their lace bed coats, shirts and belts!

I would wear all of the outfits above…just add a slouchy tank underneath, a pair of wedges and I’ll be set for Spring!

Not only did I love Carin Wester’s menswear, there are a few pieces of note in her women’s collection too.  And check out the shoes…she knows how to do a great shoe (remember the Klea boots from last Fall?).

Stockholm’s Fashion week (which was August 16-22), showcased 25 designers over a 3 day period.  A few local Stockholm designers worth checking out: Whyred; Filippa K; and Nakkna.

I can’t wait to see what my favorite designers have up their sleeves for Spring 2011!

Bassike Spring/Summer 2011

Collections for Spring and Summer 2011 are here! This is the first look at Australian label Bassike shown during Rosemount Australian Fashion Week. The collection proved to be one of RAFW favorites featuring double denim, heavy black and white stripes, Rodarte-esque knits and origami folding. needless to say, the Bassike runway was anything but basic. What I liked best about the collection was the casual tops and dresses for women pictured here.
