Fashion A Thing Of Beauty?
Keeping your finger on the pulse of the latest fashion designers in all the main shows in the world is not an easy job. Each year there are names who will become valued and long term members of the industry but there are many who will sink without trace. Below are a few of the names to look out for and whose labels will be valued for many years to come.
A la Disposition is literally shaping the fashion world with its amazing corsets. They are creating delicate shaping designs to produce a fit that is perfect for every body shape. The outer cloth will 'hug' the body while the stitching holds the fabric snugly. The combination of cut and structure from corsets of the past along with modern innovations of elegance, A la Disposition designs luxurious high fashion corsets. The corsets are made from the extraordinary weaves chosen from the best mills in Italy, England and France. Experienced needleworkers in A la Disposition's own workshops complete each corset. The only negative aspect to owning an A la Disposition creation is that your finest piece of clothing may never be seen by those who can appreciate its style and quality.
Anna Sui. This is a name that has already hit the headlines and looks as if it will be around for many years to come. Anna Sui began her career by dressing her dolls for her own Academy Awards but her passion for fashion grew as she matured and culminated in her own label. She calls her collection of fashion clippings her 'genius files'!
Her first order was
from Macy's in 1980 and her overheads were kept down by working out of her own apartment. Ten years later she was ready to open her own boutique in NewYork and the Los Angeles one followed a few years later. The New York Times calls her the designer who 'never panders' and Anna continues to be an inspiration to both her fellow designers and to the entertainment industry.
In addition to underwear and outer wear, fashion also influences the accessories we use both personally and in our homes. One of the leading names in this area is Kate Spade who is absolutely at the cutting edge and has been since she started designing her own handbags whilst working on the Mademoiselle magazine.
With her own designs and money, Kate Spade produced her first line of classically shaped handbags with innovative colors and fabrics. Together with her husband, Kate Spade was able to officially launch 'Kate Spade Handbags' in 1993. After starting with just a few innocent sketches, Kate Spade has been honored by the fashion industry over and over again for excellence in designs and for specific products. Kate Spade is the ultimate for classic elegance in accessories.
