Bottega Veneta-Spring 2007 RTW

It looks like simple and minimal are the words here when it came to the hair and makeup, and it appears those were also the key words when it came to the colors and fabrics used in the collection of suits and dresses. However, in the case of the clothes, the minimal would have to go more towards the embellishments found on one pink dress. Other than that, the dresses and suits were lovely. I was glad that there was some actual color put in because frankly, I was getting sick of seeing neutrals. To me, they're kinda boring and they're just used to basically soften a loud color if anything else at all. Tell me what you think please

A Review of Alessandro Dell'Acqua's Spring 2007 Ready to Wear Line

I actually liked this collection a lot, as it focused more on the '80s look, well, at least a tweaked version of the '80s. I must say that I applaud Mr. Dell'Acqua for at least trying to put an effort into putting in some models who looked as if they actually ate something that would pack on the pounds without looking obese. However, I would suggest that he try putting a model with an actual ass(think Jennifer Lopez type butt) and curvy hips into some of those skinny jeans for once instead of the run of the mill twig with no bustline, hips or ass. I wasn't too crazy about the lack of color that I saw either. Most of the clothes were gray, brown, silver or other neutral earth-tones with few outfits acutally exhibiting some color in them. I disliked the make up and the hair, it was just too boring. Kind of reminded me of a typical Michael Kors show with the minimalism if you ask me. The hair was just too plain Jane and pretty much looked like a chemically straightened version of the way I wear my hair on a daily basis. The makeup consisted of beige colors with very little tint for the cheeks...very boring, imho. A little color never hurts anyone, but if you're Michael Kors, it can kill you. Even if there is a lot of color.
