Erin Fetherston launches Juicy Couture Holiday Collection


Juicy Couture's debut capsule with Erin Fetherston for Holiday 2010 is now in stores. This is the first collection of an ongoing collaboration. Inspired by iconic Juicy elements such as heritage fabrics like velvet, velour, viscose and silk ribbed waistbands and draw-cords -- the guest fashion designer and creative consultant infuses her own feminine, fun-loving spirit for a glamorous dress-up dress-down holiday collection.

Fetherston brings modern proportions to 1930s and 1970s inspired silhouettes through a series of dresses and separates in rich, just this side of holiday jewel tones. A draped silk skirt wears a giant abstract bow, while a washed silk dress gets a velvet bow draped across the bust. The beloved Juicy track pant is re-imagined as a front-pleat silk pant with a braided draw-cord finished in rhinestone-encrusted tips. And, the season's sure-to-be favorite -- the silk tuxedo jumpsuit -- boasts a waist wrapped in a bejeweled bow.

The playful rhinestone, sequin, bead and bow motifs threaded throughout, continue beautifully in a viscose scoop neck T-shirt embellished with rhinestones and little bow, giving it that Juicy girly flare. The dolman velvet jacket with its single rhinestone closure and the silver-sequined, black-beaded velvet blazer both promise to lend a perfect holiday sparkle to any occasion.

Achieve a modern look in Mango’s Modernist Resort


Mango introduces Spring-Summer Collection 2011. This new collection, called Modernist Resort, the brand is opting for a clean, modernist look with the emphasis on simple lines and minimalist silhouettes, which add energy through bright colours and graphic contrasts in stripes.

Fluidity is obtained through transparencies and lightweight fabrics, while the proportions are mischievously combined to achieve a modern look. Longer skirts evolve towards pencil and slightly fuller forms, offer movement and sensuality. Men’s sportswear details are added to the coordinated classics, soft tailoring and paper touch cotton fabrics. This produces boxy and A-line forms, which are contrasted with more flowing shapes.
