Khuong Nguyen x Louboutin

Trendland.net appears to be guiding me to some fascinating people lately. One of which is Khuong Nguyen. A brilliant talent who has done commission work for the ah-mazing Christian Louboutin. Browsing Khuong's site, it's like getting lost in a fantasy world of rich colours and surreal imagery. The AW '10 campaign has recurrent references to Alice in Wonderland, what a beautiful fairytale....







Khuong's Spring Summer Tour for Louboutin continues with a sleeker vision, maintaining the surrealist perspective and sharp details. See more @ Khuong Nguyen.

Haute Couture denotes garments and design of fine detail, high quality, something elaborate and intricate. Ricardo Tisci's Givenchy Spring 2011 Haute Couture show hailed supreme of his previous offerings for Haute... jaw-dropping creations. Here are the best of the best:

Etam turns sexy, cute and cool for S/S 11

When you say Etam, I think my favourite shop when I was 12 which I quickly grew out of for the likes of H&M. It disappeared from the UK high streets and to the average joe that was that. Into adminstration, disappeared from high street forever. No no. As memory serves, they didn't collapse or fall into administration. They closed their UK channels to concentrate on their roots over in le France.
Years and years later.. it appears they've rebuilt themselves up a rather cool, (but still cutesy) respected label. On Monday, Grand Palais a Paris was home to Natalia Vodianova x Etam's lingerie show. This is her second collection with the brand and pulled in names like Kate Moss, Alexa Chung, Mario Testino, Hilary Alexander of the Telegraph for the audience, with live performances by Beth Ditto &The Kills.

The lookbook featuring Natalia herself modelling the range is cutesy and a bit sexy:
