A vogue education

Picture
JASON WU has revealed that, as a nine yea rold Taiwanese immigrant arriving in Canada, he learned more than aesthetics from Western fashion magazines like Vogue.
"When I moved here, a lot of immigrants from Taiwan and Hong Kong were moving here as well. It was an interesting time. I didn't speak a word of English, but I had this tutor named Muriel   Muriel Kauffman. I wasn't so interested in text books, so she gave me a pile of fashion magazines and sort of taught me English through there," he said. "I liked the pretty pictures. I just wanted to read more about what I was seeing."
As well as being engaged by the images, Wu acquired his first sewing machine upon arrival in Vancouver.
"That was really when I first started sewing," he told Canadian magazine Montecristo. "I didn't have money for fabric; I just had all these little snippets. So, I made clothes for dolls, instead."



 

Look of the day

Look of the moment today is a very chic tailored black bottega veneta look. Its a major coat styled with great cute and chic flat black riding boots and python bag all creating very strong chic and absolutely fabulous look. Broken down the flat riding boots can be a great causal item you could wear with jeans or riding pants also the coat is super strong and could be great investment for work or even an evening event could be worn with cute dress

Accessory of the day

Accessory of the day to day is this very cute monochrome tweed dior bag. Its that classic dior leather bag remade into super cute tweed monochrome which really stands out in the good way. Very commercial and very wearable the perfect new dior bag this fall!

Look of the moment 

Look of the moment is beyonce at  a lunch hosted by michelle obama. She is looking really cool in simple and body conscious navy victoria beckham dress which does wonders for her figure!!! Styled with cute nicholas Kirkwood's and fab lanvin necklaces!
 
Call it the Downton Abbey effect, but a whiff of Edwardian tweedy country elegance hung in the air this season it was old manor house meets the stylish 21st century girl we saw at a few collections this season. Think english countryside with period element!!!
Picture
note the tweed farmers hat and country jacket also the shoes are very english country!!!
Tommy Hilfiger captured this trend with the country equestrianism looks and tadashi was more a literal downton abbey collection
Ralph lauren and burberry captured this trend in the best way this season. Ralph showed a very literal downton and fabulous collection and burberry showed the more modern advanced collection for this trend. So think country tweeds,equestrian boots,edwardian gowns for evening,winter knits,plaid and a little bit of drama and costume for example top hat and kane or farmers tweed hat can really make this look prefect for the downton abbey effect trend here are some more examples enjoy!!!
