No I'm not referring to the fabulous New York, although now I wish I was, but the East Side of the globe, which is where many designers from fashion month pulled their inspiration into the fabulous silhouettes that strutted their stuff on catwalks all over the world.
Now again, I know fashion month is so far over that many of you have shuffled the thought to the back of your minds, but in Australia, we get stuff slow, so it's just started to influence on everyday people, believe it or not, though some stay true to their black tights and flip flops (a.k.a thongs down here)...
Why?
Back on topic, as we all plainly saw, many collections were inspired by beautiful sun-kissed countries such as Egypt, India and Asia. But this was not just a few photos and 15 minutes of inspiration upon the 11th hour, but many actually did travel overseas over the Winter of the Northern Hemisphere to these much coveted countries that seem so far away, yet so close, and this was very noticeable, with brands such Richard Chai Love, Preen and Christian Siriano designers chatting backstage at fashion shows about their fabulous experiences abroad.
With modern interpretations fit for a modern day empress, desert princess or African queen, I felt as if I simply had to share these fabulous finds with you all, even though we're very much aware of the style that the world has been talking about for quite some time now!
I personally love the trend, because it just shows how diverse and flexible the fashion world is, so much so that we can have countless different trends in one season and still manage to keep up with it all.
