I read a blog called fade to black written by a British designer living in New York. Her name is Gemma and I think she has a really cool, modish sense of 70’s style. Something I like to call: hippie-chic. A while ago, she posted about interesting hemlines that have been catching her eye, and as of late, I’ve noticed it as well. In fact, it seems I can’t look around and miss this smart new trend.
**I don’t pretend to be a fashionista and I am in no way a designer, so don’t think that I’m telling you about the new “it” thing, but I do feel I have a knack for style and I’m certainly interested in upcoming trends.
These are all from the current FreePeople catalogue and I like all of them. I love the different textures and layering happening here.
This I stole from The Sartorialist, but again, I’m loving the layers of different skirt/dress combos to create a cool hemline.
Here is another interesting hemline from Balenciaga Resort 2011. Picture c/o vogue.com.au. To me, this looks more like a shirt/skirt combo, with the belt tying the whole thing together, but it is in fact, a dress, whose hemline I love just the same.
Isabeli Fontana at a Michael Kors event. Her hem doesn’t seem to be too out of the box, but different, just the same. And I’m into it.
Supermodel Gisele Bundchen was Emmanuelle Alt’s choice to grace her first cover of Vogue Paris, and I’m loving the sheer doily style dress she is donning with a bit of an interesting hem.
This is from Jonathan Saunders’ Fall 2011 collection and doesn’t have any weird hemlines, but I am obsessed with the pattern. I love the bright, vibrant colors, but think this pattern could stand out in black and white as well. I NEED this blazer. I have to have it. My birthday is coming up (in a few months) and I’ve been on the hunt for something like it (not that I’d ever be able to find it in my price range (a girl can dream)) for weeks now. Also—forget about the pattern for a second (yeah, right) and check out the huge pockets in the blazer. Obsessed.
