Andie McDowell in Aurelio Costarella & the Face of LMFF 2011 Melissa George
Seated comfortably in the second row of the first runway to kick off the LMFF 2011I was eagerly suprised to see an international starlet in the house, Andie McDowell! Brushing shoulders with us meer mortals and wearing an Aurelio Costarella Ramen Waterfall dress she embodied a glorious glow which made me rummage though my gift bag in the hunt of any facial product by Loreal that would make my face as heavenly as hers (because I am worth it!)
Carla Zampatti opened the show with her bold yet burnt orange garments followed by the boundary pushing Romance was Born with florals pointed power shoulders and sequins to boot. An essence of sixties was felt with RWB but with an edge of 2011. A huge trend I found throughout the show was FUR, LACE AND LEATHER all mixed together or one with the other. Plenty of black, lots of mini’s for winter collection’s and of course embellishment. Oh yes you are all wanting to know about Sass & Bide… well nothing really blew me away except the brushed metal gold necklaces and belts, the rest of the collection was pretty safe, a bit of shiny fabric here and natural colours there and some snake print pants which I am sure will grace the legs of some fashionable fashionistas.
All and all I had a fabulous time at this show hosted by Grazia and received a jam packed gift bag with lots of Loreal products and of course my fav Grazia mag
So much has been happening the past month and there is plenty more to come! I am preparing my outfits for the Melbourne Spring Racing Season which means, dresses, hats, gloves, shoes and cash!!! If anyone has any tips for me to pull off a suitable look to have a chance in winning fashions on the field, I would much appreciate it! In the mean time, enjoy these snaps of my in my Sass & Bide dress and red lip ensemble!
