Modern Deconstructed Goth: Barbara Congini SS2016 Collection

Best of Copenhagen FashionWeek 2015
Copenhagen FashionWeek 2015 is over and it showed one of the most interesting avant-garde collection of the summer. Barbara I Congini from Denmark is a truly inspirational designer. Since 2005 she has established a stellar reputation for dark deconstructed layering and sustainability, but with her Spring 2016 collection she has finally produced a more approachable and wearable fashion. Don't get me wrong I am in awe of her artsy slashed, twisted, cocooned layering straddling the lines between goth and post apocalyptic vision of a doomed society. But the SS2016 collection is a truly creative one reminiscent of McQueen himself. It is more polished, more sophisticated, and more inclusive.

Best Trends of Resort 2016: Edgy Black

The Resort 2016 collections are piling up and this year it is a mixed bag for me. I love a ton of them but there were some dud from people I did not expect. Oh well there is always Fall to look for, Right?!!

One trend that I do love from the Resort 2016, however, is the edgy black for summer (sorry but I had to throw in that black and white number from Philipp Plein ... it is just awesome). Leather or rigid silhouette lines paired with lace, quilted, crochet, and see-through elements —short hemlines but all done up to the neck .
