Alexander McQueen resort 2011 by Sarah Burton

There's a resort collection I didn't write about yet, but it's actually really deserving. It is the first women's collection that Sarah Burton, as creative director, made for Alexander McQueen: a pure dream ensemble of pleats and lengths. As she said, the collection was inspired by Hans Bellmer's dolls and samurai warriors and she wanted to "juxtapose the pale and the delicate with the bold and armorial. It's about a highly structured torso that gives way to a more fluid silhouette or drop waists that lead to a finned trouser or skirt."
I'm really amazed about it, it markedly recalls Alexander McQueen's works, but in a fresh new (and lovely) way.

So, what do you think?

Marc Jacobs + Marc by Marc Jacobs resort 2011

Yes, another - or rather, two others- resort collection (I hope I'm not boring you)! This is the time of Marc Jacobs, which has been my first love, I even think his clothing lines made me fall in love with fashion world.

However, I decided to make a single post for both of Marc's labels, Marc Jacobs and Marc by Marc Jacobs, even if they couldn't be more different from each other.

These are my favourite looks from Marc Jacobs resort 2011 (you can see the entire collection here):

I pretty like the 60s inspiration and polka dots almost everywhere, which give to the collection a positive and carefree feel.

And then, here's the outfits I've chosen from Marc by Marc Jacobs resort 2011 collection (click here to see the whole collection):

On the whole, I hold that this collection has just a few of great pieces, the rest is quite insignificant. I mean, too little originality.
