Coachella, the music festival, ended last weekend and with it we are left with some of the freest, hippy minded styles of the year. A festival worth seeing only for the clothes, although they told me the music is actually pretty good too.
This all-neon style is perfectly composed, even the hair goes with it. I love how it fits her, not a lot of people could pull that off.
There is something very intriguing and magical about the Asian culture and Fashion. On the past years they have developed this love for Western fashion standards and adopted into their own culture, creating a new way of Fashion that looks almost all the time #Weird and still works.

“The Devil’s Widow” by Celene Bridge from Curtin University won 2nd prize.
“Celine’s design deserves credit for its simplicity. It is a great use of materials and originality” - commented the jury of the competition - ”The juxtaposition of sheerness and repetitive details play off each other superbly.”

I had a small obsession with this editorial from the moment I saw it. The pictures are colorful and technically perfect and the clothes are top Fashion with metallic fabrics, colorful patterns and psychedelic textures. But what kept me hang on the pictures were the models. It’s difficult to get so much “fake” passion and casual touching on a 5s frame and they did a great job. Just for that this Bullet mag editorial got a #Sexy badge.

Law of Nature by Medi Calevina and Grendy Jelius from Raffles Institute won 1st prize.

With her multicolor bangs, strange-cool-girl status, and a suite of sold-out weekend shows in New York, the 24-year-old Canadian singer Grimes attracts an audience that prides itself on quirks – both in music and style.
There was the model Hanne Gabe Odile, not only wearing a candy-raver unicorn horn but also swimming goggles and a pink vinyl raincoat for a look that felt like the best offstage take on Grimes’s goth-pop falsetto songs.

Awkward, terrifying, treacherously tall and slightly masochistic are not typically words used to describe footwear. However, from showrooms to runways the industry has seen a trend of museum and editorial-worthy heels. From the use of materials like moss agate, tigers eye, porcelain, and turquoise to the reinterpretation of “heels” altogether with an inverted shin crutch to replace the heel to an eight-inch ballerina pointe shoe. Practical? No. Weird? A bit. Beautiful? Absolutely.
Leanie van der Vyver has gained attention on what she coins “Scary Beautiful” shoes. With a concept of “playing God by physically and metaphorically perfecting themselves” she shows her interpretation of a shoe fit for the perfect human being. The shoe forces the wearer to take on a whole new approach to the concept of walking altogether, with no actual heel, rather a ballet pointe shoe with a front crutch for your shins to rest upon creating a bird-like walk.

In 1999, the dress that put Yang on the fashion map and the dress that she is most well known for, The Monarch dress was conceptualized and created. Luly Yang: The Business soon followed.
