Fashion Cues to Take From New York Fashion Week Spring’19

Fashion Cues to Take From New York Fashion Week Spring’19 NYFW boasted of many prestigious brands that were lined up to present their collections for spring’19. The list consisted of Ralph Lauren, Coach, Micheal Kors, Oscar De La Renta, Marc Jacobs, etc. A humongous number of celebrities came along both on the runway and off it to celebrate fashion in good spirits. NYFW’ 16 gave us diverse options of what should rule our wardrobes this spring. From oversize ruffly tops/dresses in shocking colors teamed up with sleek belts like in Marc Jacobs’ presentation, to the no drama sleekly-tailored look in metallic linen pantsuits like what Gabriela Hearst had to offer for the upcoming spring. That was what we took out from NYFW this time.  The Rage of the 80’s & 90’s The runway threw a major flashback from those years of uber-chic and free-spirited sense of fashion with a modern twist. Labels like Ralph Lauren, Micheal Kors, Mara Hoffman, Escada presented their collections which were hugely inspired by the silhouettes and cuts of that era such as broadened shoulders and exaggerated puffy sleeves. The fresh take on them was the color story and the sense of layering of the pieces that were well complimented with a fresh set of accessories. Suit it up! Pantsuits were huge last season and the obsession clearly still continues with more sassier options to choose from. Take cues from the labels such as Pamella Rolland for pearl embellished piece, True to the season light floral printed elegant pantsuit from Badgley Mischka, The cropped suit version form a beharian label- Noor or the feathery detailed number by Christian Cowan. Recycled Denim juxtaposed with printed pieces This could be the next big thing this season! A tasteful combination of a printed fabric and a denim piece is what is needed to go big on this trend. Follow the footsteps from these brands-Vivienne Hu for scrapped – easy-going look, Recycled denim paneled look with doily patchwork by Gypsy Sport, Patched amalgamation denim pieces from Coach, Acid washed and tie & dye monochrome paneled look put together by Proenza Schouler. Ruffled Extravaganza Ruffles practically are never outdated, the type and style vary from season to season. This time they are back with a bang big as they ever were! Rodarte this season showcased their mastery at it. Christian Siriano went extra with embellishments and feathers, well nothing wrong if they look harmonious. Tory Burch put up romantic ensembles with sheer ruffles, which are very much wearable. Caroline Herrera went for off-shouldered ruffled oversize dress. Deconstructed Pieces This trend continues to ace the runway each season, including this season! The brands such as Vaquera, Oscar De La Renta, Prabal Gurung, John Elliott all went big on this trend. Sit back and take a note, to sport the look for yourselves! Other Trends Include Tie & dye/acid washed pieces; Oversize welted Pockets, typographic prints/embellishments and fringes!

Can You Hear The Wedding Bells?

Can You Hear The Wedding Bells? If you were Priyanka Chopra, a woman that held the title “Miss World 2000” and got a break in Hollywood, who holds a Padma Shri and is named one of the “100 most influential and powerful people in the world”, what would you wear at your wedding? A wedding with a sensational male singer from Hollywood, something that the entire world is looking forward to. Who would’ve thought that a little girl who was put down so much would end up being a worldwide icon! Her story to us, The Style.world, and many others is a true inspiration. We’ll tell you why. It’s not just the racial discrimination battle that makes her stand apart, but the fact that she was born in Jamshedpur to parents who were physicians in the Indian Army. Due to her parents demanding job, Priyanka had to keep moving from place to place with them which she took up so positively as a learning experience. It would’ve been nothing less than a skirmish to break all the restrictions and barriers created at home to come through and follow her passion. When everyone around you is mocking you for the way you are, it’s not a cakewalk to work as hard as you want to. Despite which PC kept her composure and continued focusing on herself. The more hate she got, the harder she concentrated on her work. Probably, that’s her secret to success? Turning such hateful comments into something positive. An Indian woman mocked by many at one point or the other has made all them now fallen in love with her series, Quantico. After the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan, it’s probably PC’s wedding that will draw attention from all parts of the world. She is getting married to Nick Jonas, an American singer that started off his career at a very young age of 7. He became an ideal dream boy of every little girl since the time he made his appearance on the Disney Channel. PC again chooses a tough path, a 36-year-old marrying a 25-year-old. This proves how much she’s willing to go for the one she loves. Also, she’s setting a standard for the notion — ‘age is just a number.’ But we’re left with one confusion. What is she wearing for her wedding? Recently she got engaged and she wore a simple Punjabi suit. Is she going to have a low-key wedding or a lavish one? Is she planning on wearing a Sabyasachi or Manish Malhotra lehengas, or she’s going for an international haute couture?     We are leaning more towards an International Haute Couture. We will give you our reasons. Since the time she’s moved towards the Hollywood,  she has been dressing in Chanel, Bottega Veneta, Dion Lee, Ganni, Vivienne Westwood, Prabal Gurung, Emilio Pucci and many more such labels.     She walked at the Met Gala in a never worn before piecing by Ralph Lauren. Despite having gotten so much criticism for her outfit in her first Met Gala, she was brave enough to try something out of the box.     What she wore for the Royal Wedding, as Meghan’s best friend, was by Dior, an outfit that was loved by everyone.     However, we’re still confused and eager to know. She might get married twice, once in traditional Punjabi style here in her hometown and once at Nick Jonas’ hometown in a Christian wedding ceremony. No matter what she wears, she’s going to do it in a way that’s ahead of times. She’s going to have to make a mark as there are a lot of other celeb weddings lined up. What do you guys think?
