The Power of Purple & Royal Hues has also been on everyone's lips at the moment, purple, the prestigious colour of the moment, emulating splendour, grandeur & luxury!
From purple polo necks to purple trouser suits, purple seems to be the key colour of Fall 2012 showcased at A/F fashion weeks and seen in many new collections.
Being noted in such Winter Collections as Dior, Erdem, Versus, Balenciaga. Prada & Christopher Kane seemed to love lavender so much that even their runways were lined with plush purple carpets & were even scented with Lavender!
You know a trend stands the test of time when it's worn boldly by celebrities on the red carpet, and none other than Diane Kruger shook her violet tail feathers in a gorgeous Prada evening gown at the MET Gala Ball - Purple is here to stay!
But my inspiration will be taken from Prada, Balaenciaga and Christopher Kane with their edgy, androgynous take on the colour purple! Taking it away from it's elitist roots & making it the colour of the fashionista!
The leather piping embellishment on the dresses amazed me & sheer accents paired with bold, oversized florals shown in the Christopher Kane collection really caught my eye, I absolutely love them.
I loved all of Christopher Kane's additions to his collection & his combination of royal hues, reds, purples, blues & blacks with an edgy use of cut outs and silhouettes - Glam but Grunge!
This Prada trouser suit just sums up my three favourite trends for this year, the trouser suit, the power of purple & prints! Absolutely love this ensemble!
Here's a Polyvore set of mine to help you pick a couple of key items to ease you into Purple Haven. Metallic accessories will give this an edgier look & sheer accents makes the whole thing more dressed up! Choose a pair of Wine Velvet Wedges or black studded Nightcrawlers & your look is complete!
