by Emma Freed
Preen Spring Summer 2011Preen's Spring Summer 2011 collection merged luxury and wearability with a weightless, airy aesthetic. Justin Thorton and Thea Bregazzi departed from the sculpted, structured look that they have used in past seasons in favour of light, floaty silhouettes. Pieces included oversized masculine jackets paired with feminine peplum skirts and trousers. The colour palette was made up of greys, beige, cream, black and blue. Nicola Formichetti to take over at Thierry Mugler
With reference to his new role, Nicola said: "Thierry Mugler is about the power of glamour and walking straight into the future. He's been a god for successive generations in the fashion industry. He fused pop and high fashion, told a story in style and combined fantasy with reality. My approach is personal and always very eclectic. I'd like to find new ways for a luxury brand such as Thierry Mugler to excite people." As Nicola is also Lady Gaga's stylist, I guess this means Lady Gaga will be wearing a lot more Thierry Mugler.

by Emma Freed Posh at New York Fashion week
Everyone's favorite WAG, ex-Spice Girl and British Fashion Awards nominee Victoria Beckham just unveiled her Spring 2011 collection at New York Fashion Week. Although the collection featured many of Posh's signature streamline, super-flattering tailored looks, there were also flowy draped pieces in purples and nudes for a lighter Spring style. With pops of canary yellow, asymetrical necklines and a distinct lack of accessories, overall the feel was minimal, futuristic, and very feminine. The makeup was reminiscent of Miu Miu AW10, especially on Lindsey Wixon who did both the Miu Miu campaign and walked in Victoria's show; Pastel purple eyeshadow all the way up to the brows, nude lips and slicked hair. Posh also kept her promise not to use "size-0" models in her show, and Kristy Kaurova and Amanda Laine were a few of the models to share the catwalk with Lindsey. Come Spring, you can expect to be seeing a lot of these pieces worn by her growing celebrity clientele. Overall a strong collection, but a collection consisting almost entirely of dresses...one wonders if Victoria Beckham will branch out into seperates in her next. By Emma Freed
