LGFW Day 4 Bling & Bugs

I can’t believe we’re already on day four of LGFW as  quickly as it comes is as quickly as it goes. I was hoping to get to the tents early today but the unfashionable Gods we against me, I happened to make it on time for Caroline Néron and VAWK by Sunny Fong.

Caroline Néron

Can we say bling, bling… who knew mother nature had so much shine as Caroline Néron highlighted the bounties our world by presenting a collection inspired by Air, Water and Earth. The purity and transparency of Air and Water were seen in the tear dropped Swarovski crystals, grey pearls and bluish green crystals that gave you the feeling you were floating. The Earth pieces were organic, displayed by mixing elements like wood and leather and embellishing it with tiger’s eye and other crystals. Truly beautiful pieces showcasing the elements of our world.

VAWK by Sunny Fong

Sunny Fong took one of the biggest nemesis of the Spring/Summer season INSECTS and made it the cornerstone for S/S ’12. VAWK’s collection perfectly entitled “Insectica” highlighted the silhouette of insects from the shapes of the wings and thorax to the details seen in their outer appearance evident in Fong’s gold leather inserts  and printed fabric. With references to moths, butterflies, beetles and asymmetrical cuts coupled with wings and precise cutouts… Sunny found the perfect cues from what many perceive to be a pest.  (I must say I loved the extreme flutters on the lashes and stunning jewelry by Young & Ng and Erin Tracy Designs)

XOXO… Pinkie
