Blumarine Fall 2010 show doesn’t need the most detailed description. It was more or less black and zebra prints and if you throw in a handfull of mixed animal patterns and crop the dresses to super-short (undies on show) you might get the picture. Leather trench-coats, fringes, suede-pieces, more and more animal prints (python, leopard) was the staple of the collection. Blumarine’s latest show didn’t impress me at all. To be honest, the only feeling I had when leaving was that the looks was just too sexy. Over-the-top sexy, to a grade when it almost becomes something else. Don’t want to be rude and call it porno, but hey, it wasn’t far from it. This is as far as you can possibly come from what Blumarine used to create and deliver. This was one of those shows I was really looking forward to. Before the show started, Cerf de Dudzeele declared “J’adore it all. It’s for the kind of girl a man wants to follow in the street”. I’m not the one who have to be convinced, I’m sure those short-short dresses will make all the men follow you. Unfortunately I’m not the one who have to let me undies peek out to create that effect. At the moment, all I can do is hope that Blumarine will get their heads clear and give us what we really want next season. Hopefully with a pinch of that Blumarine sparkle.

Rather excited about the opening of The Allure of the Automobile later this month at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta. I’ve spent a great deal of time on the interactive site, watching the video and looking at highlights. Others with similar fascination for the golden age of automobiles, the breadth and intrigue of automobile design, and generally handsome cars should also be excited.

It’s all about speed, luxury, innovation, power, and a good number of other useful buzz words. Beautiful cars of all types are included in the exhibition – Corvettes, Jaguars, Packards – and the website already relays a good amount of personal stories submitted by visitors.

Having reviewed a number of car museums in the last year (especially those built by German brands) it’s quite lovely to see an art museum take a full survey of car design. Cincinnati Museum of Art, for example, regularly exhibits one car at a time. At High, you’ll be able to compare, contrast, and relish in all of automotive glory with aesthetics at the forefront.

The Allure of the Automobile runs from March 21 to July 20, 2010.

Highlights from The Allure of the Automobile follow.

We love that Gucci is going back to it’s roots and embracing iconic images and designs from the brand’s history. We also love that some modern celebs were on hand for the Italian luxury house’s Fall 2010 show. Ashley Greene and Rachel Zoe sat front row in Milan; Greene wore a black silk shift dress with blue and white contrast detail with the black leather bamboo handbag, while Zoe wore a vintage Gucci look.

Roberto Cavalli’s Fall 2010 show was a trip back in time. This was a celebration to his first customers and the woman that first started buying Roberto Cavalli’s clothes. It was a great mix between heavy fabrics, brocades, velvet, military chic and my absolute favorite: the backless, wide flowy maxi dresses. The overall feeling was boho-chic and 70’s in a updated way. Everything felt bleached and a feeling of yesterday was printed all over the clothes. Even his signature leopard prints was bleached and looked old and used. Loved it! The layer-on-layered styling strengthen the boho theme. The harem pants and loosely fitted looks assured this to be a winning collection. Even though Roberto Cavalli have been designing and creating fashion for the last 40 years, he just proved that he will continue for many years to come.
