Fashion Located Around The World
by: Claire Peacock
Fashion A Thing Of Beauty?
Who has the time to tear around the world to visit the
fashion world's hot spots? Paris, London, New York and
Milan are hardly near to each other and shows go on in each
place several times each year. There's always at least one
young designer who is 'it' for the year and who will be in
the limelight for many years to come. So, who is at the
forefront of trends in the next few years? Keep an eye open
for:
A la Disposition is literally shaping the fashion world
with its amazing corsets.
They are creating delicate
shaping designs to produce a fit that is perfect for every
body shape.
The outer cloth will 'hug' the body while the
stitching holds the fabric snugly.
The combination of cut
and structure from corsets of the past along with modern
innovations of elegance, A la Disposition designs luxurious
high fashion corsets.
The corsets are made from the
extraordinary weaves chosen from the best mills in Italy,
England and France.
Experienced needleworkers in A la
Disposition's own workshops complete each corset.
The only
negative aspect to owning an A la Disposition creation is
that your finest piece of clothing may never be seen by
those who can appreciate its style and quality.
Anna Sui is a name that might sound familiar to many and
will continue to be heard and recognized for many years to
come.
Anna Sui's start in fashion begins with an adorable
story of a young girl who would dress her dolls and the
neighbor's action figures for her own individualized
edition of the Academy Awards.
Her love of fashion
blossomed as she began to design her own clothing and took
pictures from magazines as her own personal inspiration.
She is often quoted as referring to her collection of
fashion clippings as her 'genius files'.
After school Anna worked as a stylist and in retail but
she continued to design and make her own clothes.
Eventually she had the confidence to enter six designs in
the Boutique Show and was rewarded with an order from
Macys. Anna branched out on her own, running her business
through her apartment for ten years before she felt
confident enough to open a boutique in the SoHo area of New
York. In 1999 it was a natural progression to open a second
boutique in Los Angeles. Anna's designs remain at the
forefront of fashion world and she is an inspiration to
absolutely everyone who comes across her.
In addition to underwear and outer wear, fashion also
influences the accessories we use both personally and in
our homes. One of the leading names in this area is Kate
Spade who is absolutely at the cutting edge and has been
since she started designing her own handbags whilst working
on the Mademoiselle magazine.
Her first line was a selection of classically shaped
handbags using innovative colors and fabrics. In 1993, with
her husband, she launched 'Kate Spade Handbags' which have
been honoured by the fashion industry for their excellent
designs. Kate Spade is quite simply known as the producer
of sheer elegance in accessories.

What Your Handbags Say About You
What Your Handbags Say About You
by: Cathy Feldman
You can tell a lot about a person from the clothes they wear, but you can also tell a lot about a person simply from the handbags they carry. It’s hard to believe, but you can find out a number of things about a women’s personality just by looking at the type of handbag she sports. Below you will find a number of handbag styles and colors as well as what each specific type of handbag says about the owner.
Styles:

Big and Bulky – Big, bulky and oversized bags are casual and are often associated with younger individuals. These are used for individuals who carry a number of things (binders, books etc) and require a lot of space. Down-to-earth,...

Confessions of a Designer Handbag Junkie
Confessions of a Designer Handbag Junkie
by: Cathy Feldman
As you are likely aware, I am a designer handbag fanatic.
I have been advised by family and friends that this could be developing into a problem, but I am confident that I have it under control.
Sure, I have bounced my rent check to purchase a new purse.
Who hasn't?
There have been times when I have skipped out on my utility bills, so I would have enough cash to buy a new handbag.
Who wouldn't?
I have spent countless nights dreaming about shopping for the latest fashionable designs.
So what if I want to have Kenneth Cole's babies.
I really don't see the problem here.
To make my mother happy, I have made the following pledge (ever-so-loosely based on the "twelve step" program):
My name is Cathy, and I am addicted to designer handbags and high fashion.
I admit that I am powerless over Prada, and that...

Savvy Shopping for Replica Handbags
Savvy Shopping for Replica Handbags
by: Nick Martilik
First of all, we all know handbags are big business.
The leading designers like Prada, Gucci, Coach, Burberry, Dooney and Bourke all command huge investments when you purchase one of their purses, often in the thousands of dollars.
So, it is no big surprise then that replica handbags, often called ?knock-offs,? are just as big a business.
If you?re looking for the real deal for a steal, be aware that in order to actually get the authentic designer item you will have to most likely fork over the big bucks, regardless of that tip your friend gave you for a little shop where you can get the same thing for hundreds less.
Not likely, say most experts.
In fact, top designers make it rather common knowledge how you can spot the real product. And they say, you will not find a real Gucci through a street vendor, regardless of what he or she is advertising.
