London Fashion Week SS 2012....After Margaret Howell


After Margaret Howell.

Her jacket was almost the exact same colour as the cobalt blue pieces in the Margaret Howell SS 2012 collection!

Adrian Wu

Double Slit Experiment used for inspiration behind ‘s spring 2012 fashion collection. Matter becomes fashion particles and makes waves.
ADRIAN WU, 21 years old, fearless, bold, and possibly one of the most unique collections this season at LG Fashion Week in Toronto. His concepts are original, his construction is sound, and the silhouette pushed most peoples comfort with fashion. Unfortunately this collection was not received as well as I would have personally liked, but that seems to be the way it is… new talent is often over criticized
While the collection wasn’t the most salable, it should be applauded for its cohesiveness and originality, not to mention the fact that it was designed by a 21 year old…. at that age most guys are out partying all night and dropping out of university. Here we have a budding designer that is well on his way to becoming an internationally recognized superstar in the fashion world. All I have to say is Woot Woot!

This season’s inspiration was the double-slit experiment, (A.K.A. Young’s experiment, it demonstrates how matter and energy can display characteristics of both waves and particles). Although when I asked, Adrian said “I really don’t know anything about Quantum Physics” … lol. He went on to say it was more about the fact that I could design a collection around the concept of this. That is what is more important.
I had a chance to chat with Adian backstage after the show and was really taken back on how unassuming, charming, and ridiculous cute (in a faltering way) he was. Also he’s like a 3rd my size, huge talent, small packaging :)  Oh and speaking of the show, the studio presentation of the Wu’s spring 2012 incorporated a live mini orchestra, how neat is that? Right in the middle of the environment, live music and conceptual fashion, great start to any day!

Oh, Pretty Woman: Nicole Trunfio

While some die-hard fans will find it blasphemous for me to say so, I’ve never really been a big fan of Pretty Woman. But even so I can recognise the pop-cultural significance of Julia Roberts in thigh high patent boots and the introduction of Roy Orbison to a new generation. It was an unconventional love story, and it was fun. Aram Bedrossian’s approach to a photoshoot inspired by the film is equally as fun, especially when those famed patent boots and blonde bobbed wig enter the picture. Nicole Trunfio flits between pensive and whimsical in a way that reflects the moods of the film (to my memory, though I confess it’s been a while since I’ve seen it).

Perhaps it’s time for me to give the film another shot?
The shoot is from the second issue of Lovecat magazine which, from what we’ve seen so far, looks well worth picking up. You can view more Pretty Woman featuring Nicole Trunfio at the thumbnails above.
