There is a new Tumblr that is going viral called WHERE I SEE FASHION that connects high fashion to objects and scenery that are all around us.
Amazingly you will see how flawlessly the connections are made between nature, buildings and structures, and colors and high fashion. Which is your favorite connection? #fashionfriendsofTenaciousM enjoy!

Anticipation was high as everyone awaited the morning debut of Louis Vuitton’s Ready to Wear Collection. With the return of the renown Nicholas Ghesquiere after almost 2 years, the whole collection remained a mystery with no hints in any fashion direction whats so ever.
Curious to see what was in store, seats where filled with everyone from the Princess of Monaco to fashion great Jean Paul Gaultier. All the finest of leathers were used, but in the most unique of ways in only Ghesquiere could do. Enjoy!

Escada released their Fall 2014 lookbook and once again, they delivered an elegant and commercially appealing collection. I love the jewel toned palette, and the relaxed and thoroughly modern silhouettes. #fashionfriendsofTenaciousM enjoy!!

Valentino’s fall collection was yet another master class in showing a diversity of themes in one collection, that managed to maintain continuity despite the mash of ideas. The show opened with a decisively mod theme. Optic patterns and bold graphic colors eventually gave way to more familiar territory, with subdued yet structured pieces infused with jacquard filled butterflies, and billowing caftans.
The show progressed into hallmark pieces, like delicate tulle and chiffon maxi dresses with lace and embroidered floral and animal motifs. The entire collection promises to be coveted by the sartorial set. Ultimately we think that Valentino can do no wrong. #fashionfriendsofTenaciousM Enjoy!!

Jenny Packham delivers a beautifully crafted Fall 2014 collection. This set is full of flowing pieces, and elaborately embellished frocks as per usual. It was too hard to edit this collection, so we had to keep every look. Enjoy them all!

Elie Saab’s Fall collection was an absolute thing of jewel toned beauty. Burgundy, teal, dark moody florals, black lace, sequins, and the most sophisticated shade of mauve blended seamlessly together in a parade of deeply cut pleated maxis, smartly tailored trousers, and extravagant furs.
Dégradé colors shifts popped against the otherwise completely color-blocked collection. Enjoy!!

Plunging necklines with super sexy slits, Donatella Versace designed beautifully crafted rhinestone embroidered hoodies in a variety of colors.
Using Grace Jones as an inspiration for the design, Versace mentioned during an interview ”She left a sign as a strong, powerful woman, a power goddess, I wanted to embody that.” #fashionfriendsofTenaciousM Enjoy!

I am crazy for this designer and this is my second time to post about Balmain!! The collection that is Balmain Fall 2014, revived the long admired military trend, with a new take only Olivier Rousting could master. Olive greens, canary yellows, and even a dash of leopard were all present. Balmain’s signature silhouettes came out to play, (structured shoulders and pegged pants) but didn’t feel redundant.
Especially exciting were the ornately macramed dresses using lengths of twined roping as a textile. #fashionfriendsof TenaciousM Enjoy!

Stella Jean steals our hearts again with her Bold Patterns and Cultural Vibes. It is easy to see the influences from African and Asian Countries, and she manages to capture the strength of both continents while balancing it with the beauty that people overlook.
Straight-line silhouettes are balanced by cinched waists and thicker fabric still has the mobility of silk as the models glide down the runway. Any favorites #fashionfriendsofTenaciousM?
