2009 fall runway season wrap up – Fashion industry challenged by economic crisis, finally creativity is worth more than luxury… VIVE LA CRISE!








First of all I want to apologize to the readers of this blog for the time taken for this wrap up I was on economic crisis Holidays, in Brazil… Amazing!!!!


Anyway… It is obvious that designers have the world crisis in mind (specially the Italian designers). Cotton is the fabric of the moment and it’s incredible what you can do with it. LV and Lanvin mad full use of it (their entire collection were made of it).

Fall 2009 is all about the accessories to make you look like luxury. Don’t spend too much on your clothes instead spend it on bags, shoes, hats, sunglasses, jewellery, etc. Dig out your old stuff, layer it and just through a bag (a big one), army boots and a cool Salvation Army hat and you are on, by the way oversize and homeless chick is back so if yo have the eye and the patience Salvation Army could be your new fashion tample... or any vintage stuff. Layers, layers...

In 2009 is all about creativity, so it is up to you to make it work. Remember that style has no budget. You can make it or break it. How exciting is that… Make it happen boys and VIVE LA CRISE !!!
