Fashion Skirts | Ladies Fashion Dresses

The term Victorian fashion is generally used only with regard to the United Kingdom. There were certain clothing styles and mannerisms that were observed during this period. In the early period of the Victorian Era, the silhouette for the woman was more of the demure kind. Women wore pointed bodice, which were long and had fitting waists. The bodice was designed to enhance the waist. In the early period, Victorian clothing for women was about restriction of arm movements. Another interesting feature were the detachable collars! The colors used in the early period of the Victorian fashion were soft, pastel shades. Patterns were delicate and fashionable, all designed to maintain the femininity of the woman. Beehive shaped skirts was another characteristic feature of Victorian fashion. Here, garments were stiffened to give a particular appearance. Crin also known as horsehair, was used for a particular portion of a garment so that it stiffens in that particular area.

Crin was used for hem linings and sleeve heads of the dresses. Although cloth was manufactured in the mills, Victorian clothing in 1837 was generally designed and assembled by tailors and other such specialized people who were into designing clothes and hats. These people catered to only a specific few of the society who could afford this service; others stitched their clothes at home. Bell shaped skirts also became a rage and these became wider in the 1830s. The bell shape soon became dome shaped. As these skirts became bigger and flared out, they also needed support from the inside. Victorian dresses therefore needed to be worn with a lot of petticoats. The lower portion was also supported by horsehair, which were woven into the pattern for the stiffened look.

Fashion Contests

Fashion contests entail the exhibition of designs to potential fashionistas. It's the basic platform on which new designs are launched. You can do this through sketches or complete works that are shown on runways both local and international. Fashion contests will also involve the sale of creations which need to be alluring for them to attract more and more potential buyers. The larger an audience a designer will reach the broader his / her market will be. When organizing a fashion contest, one needs to consider the target audience. By doing so, picking designs that will interest them will be easy and there won't be any risk of missing out on any of them.

Observing the current trends in the market will enable one to know what works for what ages and what is out. Starting out small is the key word since these humble beginnings will give one the required experience. Starting at the top could be frustrating since there are better people in the market, individuals who have been doing this for years. Learning from your own mistakes as well as the other peoples mistakes is of great help in becoming a fully fledged designer. Researching widely will make one more knowledgeable on what is expected of them in this glamorous yet demanding industry.

Fashion contests will involve entrances to competitions that are basically on design. These will help the upcoming designer to learn and have a first hand experience on how well suited they are for the fashion industry. Fashion designs require one to be creative if they are to capture what is missing and yet most needed design in the market. What will keep you going in the fashion contests is a strong will to survive and succeed at the same time. It's good to be hopeful but at the same time being over ambitious may turn things for the worst.

Winning is epitome but not winning does not meant that you are not good enough. It simply means that you have a lot to do to get up there. This will mean hard work and thanks to the exposure in the fashion contest, you'll surely know where you went wrong. Trying again will be the next course of action and you'll surer get to where you aspire to be. Success is always within reach and with the knowhow of how to get there, you can count the barriers broken. Fashion contests will enable you walk the journey of triumph and while at it never give up!

Indian Designer Manish Arora with his Baroque Ornamentation at Paris Fashion Week

Future is here, at least for the Indian designer Manish Arora, who showcased his Baroque Ornamentation at Paris Fashion Week. The designer, known for his love of vibrant colours and abstract shapes, took inspiration from Baroque, an artistic style prevalent from the late 16th century to the early 18th century predominating Europe characterized by dynamic movement, overt emotion and self-confident rhetoric. For Manish it was individualistic and very Indian, though some of the fashion critics have said its Lady Gaga goin gaga.

Manish combined Indian techniques with geometric designs in bold beautiful colours with a heady mix of different kinds of head gears and weird hairstyles for his beach baroque set of clothes. When his show started all of a sudden it was splash of colours. According to him the bottomline of the international fashion is that it should be no longer boring, Manish was speaking to a news agency about his collection.

This was his fifth season at fashion's biggest trade event - the Paris Fashion Week, and his ninth international showcase - Paris (five shows) and London (four shows). His collection was also supported by Swarovski which is described by the designer as "mute, metallic, crystalline and European with wide and stiff shoulders resembling Greek armour-plates and military epaulettes".

What's in the collection - glamorous evening ensembles futuristic gowns reminiscent of Star War series, the hips of the dresses were padded for additional contours and stiff look, sheer pants and tops with sequins,outfits embroidered with crystals, beads, fine metal sheaths, applique needlework and long Victorian trains along the assymetrical hemlines, trailing into metres of sheer organza, crepe, nets, cotton-satins, silk and georgettes on the floor.

Not to miss out Manish's signature shoes, metallic pumps, bangles, and head gears in the shape a motor car. Paris Fashion Week was taken aback!

Fashion Season

Every girl wants to be called a stylish girl, even though every ones opinion about fashion is different. In other words, being fashionable is a very personal matter. Of course people usually have some common sense about the good fashion taste and bad fashion taste. However, most of the time, fashion is almost unreasonable or creative. Fashionable goods designers keep trying something new and different in order to be ahead of the ordinary chasers. Thus, fresh and unique is the common terms to describe the fashion trend nowadays.
By talking so much about the changing of the vogue field, I am actually not going to have a further discussion about the instability of this field. On the contrary, I am about to talk the stable part of the fashion world, which is very rare, thus it is very precious. Among all the fashionable consumer goods, there are several things that wont be out of date ever and one of them is the leather bag, which is also the main character today.
If you have paid enough attention to the new changes of the fashion world, you may find out that the leather bags have appeared in various kinds of fashion shows frequently, such as LV and Chanle have had some new types of leather bags to sell. And even some online shops, for example the bagsok.com, have also presented plenty of new types of leather bags. Gradually, the leather bag has become the star of the winter fashion this year. Actually, not only this year, the leather bag is the frequent star at the vogue list.
It is quite obvious that the leather bag has several advantages. It is very wearable for example. One of my friends uses the same leather bag for several years. And because of the professional maintenance and its own good quality, her leather bag looks still new and classical. Apart from its durability, the leather bag is also famous for its elegant characteristic. Many people are quite confused about this point, how could the leather bag be elegant? See it yourself, have you ever noticed that those elegant women, movie stars or successful career women would choose the leather bag. No one can explain this. I guess just like the precious stones, the leather bag is born to be noble.
No more compliments. You are able to see the advantages of the leather bag yourself. This is the fashion season for the leather bag again and buy yourself one leather bag.

Designers Association Wang Wang: It's fashion week on it, I would like to have your hand inside this table, because the activities are more honest, you should carefully studying this table, it may really do not know where start with, do not know what to see. I looked, there are seven or eight to ten events before and after. Yesterday, I read, the next we can simply sub-categories, this year the most important from the point of view the content of the performance is essentially localized Fashion Week. Fashion Week since its inception, has not been the case. With the acceleration of China's internationalization process, we always want to pursue international, and what foreign brands more interested in the Chinese market, so census drawn Fashion Week is about to have 20 percent of foreign brands and designers, but this year Fashion Week, in addition, Japan, South Korea, only a UK release hairstyle trends.


Sina women: that is not saying the quality of local designers continually improved?


Wang: I think it may be two reasons which led, first, Europe and the United States can see that fashion is indeed subject to Financial Relatively large impact of the crisis, the second, also shows the growth of our designers has become the main body of our Fashion Week, Fashion Week in Beijing has been able to become the platform for the fashion industry's words, released to the world. Not just the Chinese brand, China's designers, fashion week inside the past, local businesses or processing industry is also a distinct predominance of the brand, this is the dominant brand designers.

Basically have their own brand of designer in publishing, this is a very good thing, that is, that our traditional Chinese garment industry has grown from processing trade towards the main stage of development a designer to design as the main stage. This is the upgrading of the most direct expression. Overall, the Chinese concept, the concept of Asia has become a leading, rather than blindly pursue past the internationalization of China has now fully internationalized. China has fully integrated into the world, and accession to the WTO, China is already part of the world economy, China has become a part of world politics, China's life and culture has become a part of the world, so the realization of China Fashion Week our words and sounds. In contrast, there are several prominent features of this year, the first, most obvious cross-strait exchanges and active, this may be the biggest change in this Fashion Week, Fashion Week this year, Taiwan's designer brands may accounted for about 20 percent of the conference, as Amy Chua month, and France, Pan Yiliang, there Oudi Fen, Taiwan's well-known Underwear Brand, there are well-known in Taiwan on the release of ten co-branding. So this is the first time in 12 years in fashion week so many of Taiwan's designers and the design of the brand in Taiwan. This also shows the cross-strait industrial and cultural exchanges to expand cross-strait market and culture in the further integration. The second feature is that the Fashion Week Men The release of designers and men the most in 12 years time, and basically own designer brand, but also that the design by emphasis on men's, men's design by the industry's attention, men's designers are also growing. Third, the view from the Fashion Week activities, design competition, all kinds of topics had been the competition is the most time, various topics of active competition, that the industry demand for talent in China's fashion industry relies on the traditional labor-intensive, and now through the years to upgrade and there have been demands for talents, the brand is not just growing up, his talent even more digging, but also to focus on their industry personnel in the environment, also shows that corporate social responsibility now , enhancement of social consciousness. They design new emphasis on mining, to build a showcase their new platform, which actually created the whole of industry resources and create a good human resources and the environment.

If a person asked you what Jesus wears the answer would most likely be, “Jesus wear” or “Christian clothing”.

Pukka's elderberry syrup worked a treat for any of the models who were coming down with a cold or cough and worked very well with their Three Ginger tea.

Faqs About Fashion Jewelry

Although clothing can be found in virtually every style in our modern society, putting together a unique look can still be difficult. Fine designer jewelry is great for special occasions and daily wear, but fashion jewelry steps in when it is time to take your outfit up a notch. A fantastic long bead necklace or a tough leather cuff bracelet changes an ensemble and adds your personality to the mix. With so many jewelry trends changing and evolving every day, it can be difficult to decide which fashion jewelry you need. Use our tips to choose jewelry for your collection.
Questions about Fashion Jewelry:

How much fashion jewelry do I need?

As much as you need to express yourself, some women choose just a few key fashion accessories to wear with their fine jewelry, while others love to collect fashion designer jewelry in every category. Several necklaces, a few bangle and cuff bracelets, a handful of dangling earrings and one or two cocktail rings will get you through the week in style. Men typically wear less jewelry, but a nice ring, a fashionable bracelet and a cool chain necklace will all add to your collection.

What is the difference between fashion jewelry and fine jewelry?

The biggest difference between fine jewelry and fashion jewelry is materials. In general, fine jewelry is made of the precious metals -- gold, silver and platinum -- and decorated with diamonds, pearls and the highest quality gemstones. Fashion jewelry is made of, well, anything that can be turned into jewelry, including wood, leather, fabric, glass, resin, copper, brass and plastic. Beads of every kind are a mainstay of fashion accessories. Fashion jewelry may also feature gemstones and precious metals.

What should I do with outdated fashion jewelry?

First, ask yourself: "Is it truly outdated or am I just tired of it?" After all, you wore those great earrings all summer, and now it is time to find a new favorite pair. Before you toss old jewelry into the trash, consider these options:

Retire that fashion bracelet or necklace for a season or two. You may learn to love it again if you just avoid it for a while.

Trade your fashion jewelry with friends or sell it in a consignment shop or on an auctions site.

Recycle any fashion jewelry made of gold that you'll never wear again. There are plenty of gold redemption programs that buy gold.

Keep it in storage for a few years -- your daughters and granddaughters will have so much fun experimenting with your old fashion jewelry.

Fashionable Career Gear

Getting ready for the work week does not mean leaving all fashion sense in the closet.  Fashion is booming, even in the career world.  From stilettos to briefcases, the world of work has adapted to amazing fashion.

When dressing for your career, the goal is to project a high level of professionalism, and class, no matter what your career path.  This does not always mean shirts uncomfortably buttoned to a tight neckline, nor does it mean nude stockings are always necessary.  Professionalism in fashion is reaching new heights.  Here are some out of the ordinary fashion ideas for your career-gear assembly:

Less Is More:  Being fashion forward does not mean adding out of context prints or flashy color.  Although color is great, and so are prints, softer colors such as pinks and greens can work just as well.  

This theory can also apply with accessories.  It is often better to make one statement with a bangle necklace or beaded earrings, than to wear both, as well as fifteen rings.  One fantastic piece of jewelry can make an entire ensemble.  It's good to go bold, it's not so good to overdo it.

Be Polished:  To be polished does not have to mean dressing like your grandmother.  Polished can be projected through a fitted leather jacket over a crisp shirt.  It can also mean strutting a freshly polished pair of tall boots with a pencil skirt.  The more clean your look appears, the more professional and organized an image you will give yourself.

 

Even when purchasing stellar clothing articles from your online boutique, don't be afraid to get them hemmed to fit you perfectly.  Designer clothing will also sport classy buttons, tiny logos, and tailored workmanship.  

Fit Your Fashion To Your Routine:  While some workers may only need a small clutch or a leather handbag, others may require a large leather bag or briefcase.  All of these items now come in fashionable designs.  If your position requires sitting throughout most of the day, perhaps some comfortable pants or a cotton skirt is in order.  If constantly walking is your daily routine, maybe comfortable shoes or sandals would be a main priority.  

Each person has a different daily routine in the workplace.  While looking sharp, don't be afraid to think out the day's comfort in advance.  Looking good does not need to mean being completely uncomfortable.

Follow Suit:  When in doubt as to what may or may not be appropriate attire, with respects to human resources and the outline of your company, look to your boss.  Although you boss may not be up to par with fashion, the general do's and don'ts will often revolve around this individual.  If your boss is wearing a suit to work every day, it might not be in your best interest to walk into work with khakis and a tank.  Learn from those above you, and use them as your baseline.  Then make your own alterations, to create a look that exhibits who you are as a career individual.

Baby Harper Comes with Mommy Victoria Beckham to Fashion Week

Baby Harper is probably the only newborn to ever have a fashion sense by showing up for Fashion Week with her mom Victoria Beckham. This was her newborn's first fashion week ever, and she is starting her off early. Dressed in some of the most expensive designer wear, baby Harper is set to take the runway with surprise. The former Spice Girl, and her little Harper Seven, that is just shy of being two months old, was seen in NYC right before Fashion's Night Out, the first and most official kick off to the start of NY Fashion Week.

Posh looked absolutely stunning in her magenta dress, paired with suede Christian Louboutin heels that were beautiful to say the least. Harper shown bright in her plaid dress and grey socks. No red soles on her yet, but she is still rocking that baby fashion for the show. Victoria is in town to show off her new collection at the end of the Fashion Week at the NY Public Library.

She is excited, and did not want to leave little Harper at home. She cannot bear to be apart from her, but what mummy can? When you're gone all the time, than you want to make sure that you bring them with you if you can.

This time, Victoria did just that, and Harper seems to be the most content little girl out there. She sits in her mums lap and takes in everything and doesn't make a sound. With her wide eyes staring at all the latest fashion, she is definitely soaking up the design and collection world right before our eyes before she can even walk. This is something that we looked into. She was very cooperative during the entire process and they made sure to make their rounds where everyone that attended could not resist meeting little Harper. She was the smallest attendee there, and the one with the most attention overall, even more than the models that were wearing the outfits on the runway. This might be a good thing for Harper and her mom Victoria, but a bad one for the designers trying to show their new fashions.

There are pictures out there of the two during Fashion Week if you want to take a glimpse at this cutie, and perhaps the wardrobe her stunning mom is donning. This will give you an idea of just how fashion oriented the family is; Harper's mom is a fashion star after all. This is something to keep in mind when the time comes, and you want to make sure that you take a peek into the wonderful world of the stars and perhaps envision what it would be like to be one of them in the fashion industry or perhaps just a star overall. You end up knowing what is in, and what is not and perhaps where to shop for the best items. What would you do if you were a star?

Chu Shu Inc. Declares 'Silver Linings' To Be NY Fashion Week's One And Only Fashionable Shoe Liners

New York, NY - Today, while New York city is abuzz with 'Fashion Week,' New York start-up Chu Shu Inc., proclaims that its fashionable antimicrobial shoe liners, Silver Linings, a must for any 'fashionista' who doesn't want to let her 'look' down with sticky feet and shoes when treading down her own personal runway. These slim and pretty half-soles protect her expensive and favorite shoes, from perspiring feet, when wearing them without socks or stockings. Infused with Agion® silver, these innovative inserts keep feet odor-free and dry, with bacteria-banishing and moisture-wicking features and a non-adhesive grip backing.

Silver Linings are the brainchild of New York businesswoman, Jenn Chu, founder of start-up, Chu Shu, Inc. (www.silverliningsnewyork.com) who saw a personal need for a slender antimicrobial shoe liner for women to wear in their shoes with bare feet that would cut down on perspiration and odor and protect expensive shoes from being ruined. So after being laid off from her job, and equipped with a BS from Cornell in Chemical Engineering and an MBA from Northwestern, she decided that the time was right to start her own company. So she designed and developed a product that fit the bill, or should we say, the shoe, and Silver Linings were born.

Ms. Chu sees 'Fashion Week' as the perfect time to tell the fashion industry and the fashion-conscious about Silver Linings, as she views them as an important fashion accessory for style-conscious women of all ages. Silver Linings are a premium product destined for premium stores worldwide, and she invites contact from interested U.S. and overseas distributors. They are already penetrating the market and were recently worn by all thirty-two Miss Malibu 2011 contestants and were featured in the gift bags of the judges, sponsors, guests, and celebrity speakers and performers.

Silver Linings of New York will be one of the co-sponsors of The Eva Longoria-Parker Rally For Kids For Cancer Charity event at the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood on October 21st and the Oscars® in the spring of 2011.

Jenn Chu comments, 'We women put all kinds of crazy stress on our shoes. We wear the same pair of ballet flats or high heels from dusk 'til dawn, usually without the benefit of socks to help protect both our feet and our shoes from moisture, wear and tear." She continues, "Traditional insoles are often so bulky that they can add an extra size to a shoe - and they don't do much in the way of moisture prevention. So what's a stylin' lady to do?" Her answer is her new product, 'Silver Linings!'
Silver Linings are made in the U.S. and come in a package of three pairs, retailing for .99. One-size-fits-all with each pair lasting for about 30, 12 hour wears. One pair is recommended for each pair of shoes. Currently available at silverliningsnewyork.com, they are soon to be available at fine retailers and etailers everywhere.

Turning Japanese: Manga Fashion Accessories

Since Shoichi Aoki's "Fruits" hit mainstream bookshelves in 2001, the exciting hotchpotch of Japanese fashion subcultures has inspired everyone from toddlers to professionals. The JET (Japanese English Teacher) scheme has given a lucky few firsthand experience of the crazy mishmash that is the Japanese clothing and accessory market (so envied by their peers upon returning home with a container full of authentic Harajuku-wear!)

Japanese fashion is all about transient statements. A fifteen-year-old girl who opts for "Futuristic Maid" this weekend isn't tied down by her fashion statement. Next weekend it could be "Old Skool Punk", the one after perhaps "Urban Gangsta" The point as far as Japanese kids are concerned is simple. In a country famed for its stringent social norms, generational expectations and strict career aspirations, the teenage to university years are a valuable time during which to let loose, experiment and go for fashion gold 100%!

One valuable lesson those outside the relatively inaccessible Japanese street fashion market can take away is to add a little colour to your day.

Remember the 80's? Well luminous colours are still the colour palette of choice for many Japanese urban fashion artists!

A stealthy way to introduce a little luminosity into a daily wardrobe is to accessorise. A little research turned up Nixon watches as one of the brightest, most stylish, and well-made subtle accessories available outside Japan. Cheap Nixon watches are easily sourced online and range from around the £60 mark. Nixon watches digital styles are extraordinarily reminiscent of the ultramodern anime-trends that permanently weave themselves into Japan's subcultural layers.

Local markets can be fantastic for picking up a few cheap luminous/cartoonish accessory finds, particularly snug winter gloves, scarves and ear-muffs (an absolute Japanese fashion-love) The Japanese look can be hard to pin down 100%, especially for a cultural outsider. Think more along the lines of introducing a few BRIGHT key pieces and accessories into everyday wear and channel that inner Harajuku-kid workably for winter!

silhouettes with tone on tone treatments.

Lourdes Libman presented her "Unequally Blue" collection, a combination of
tropical flavor from her native Dominican Republic and sophisticated European flair.

The Russian designer contingent presented strong collections from three gifted designers:
- Galit Couture, coming to New York from Russia via Israel, showed a group of beautiful fairy-tale bridal gowns. These dream-like creations are for the bride who wants to be the "Belle of the Ball" making an unforgettable entrance on her special day.
- Routa's designs are visual poetry brought to life with a unique perspective on fabric and style.
- Lilia Berzon presented a group of sensuous evening designs characterized by an innovative use of fabrics and structural elements.

Get to Know The Styles From Fashion Week

Fashion Week - the week in fashion that tells everyone where fashion for the year is headed. For this reason alone, may people specifically tune into Fashion Week every year. The audience is awed by the flawless and unique designs that parade down the catwalk, though designers will often admit that their inspiration is sparked by the seasoned veterans of fashion.


Watching Fashion Week can give you lots of ideas to incorporate in your quest to be as fashionable as possible. Commonly featuring celebrities who attend fashion weeks around the world are entertainment and gossip shows. In a lot of cases they will also show the designers' dresses and new items that get everyone's attention in most every show. The Fashion TV channel will tell you all that you need to know about the latest styles.


Browse fashion magazines for style ideas. Fashion magazines usually collate pictures during the weeks immediately following Fashion Week, offering clients an idea of the newest fashions and a chance to compare trends by competing designers.

Look for the clothing featured in your favorite fashion magazine when you go shopping.

Look at photos from Fashion Week shows online. The Internet is a valuable source for information, and its numerous resources don't leave out the Fashion Week highlights for all fashion fans. You can get ideas about fashion using style.uk.msn.com or nymag.com/fashion to obtain your daily dose of the latest style news for your enjoyment.


Do some window shopping in designer stores. Designers take great pride in their craft and will happily display their handiwork in shop windows. During Fashion Week, it is best to walk by many of the designer shops to see what types of fashions are popular now.


Get the look at an affordable price! It costs a pretty penny to look that fabulous and glamorous, dressed from head to toe in designer labels.

Scrutinizing your style and buying by the piece is a quick way around it. Buy the scarf at a department store, but get the blouse from a thrift store. As long as you can get close to it, you definitely can pull it off, although it may not be the real thing. Who says you need to break the bank on style? Fashion aficionados would agree that it's all about attitude rather than the brand-name or designer.

The best way to see the new styles in action is to attend a fashion event in person and up close. If you are a model, journalist or even a volunteer you will be able to do it. Alternately, if you have the funds available, bundled packs are offered for sale by hotels and credit card companies which include Fashion Week tickets.
