Just Cavalli Resort 2013

Roberto Cavalli is an insatiable jet-setter. While he and his glamorous gowns have been turning up on the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival, the designer's new Resort range for his lower-priced Just Cavalli line is a passage to India. One of the first things that comes to mind with regards to the subcontinent is the abundance of vibrant, saturated color, which is also a Cavalli calling card. This season, he experimented with print blocking by mixing mirrored hothouse florals (Venus flytraps and "Garden of Eden" palms) and his signature animal prints. Sure, the impact was characteristically over-the-top, but then again, the lineup was described as nodding to hip-hop culture, and you can absolutely picture someone like M.I.A. wearing these clothes in her next music video—particularly when styled with the big gold hoops and embellished trucker hats seen in the lookbook.

Tamuna Ingorokva & Mawi Photo Exhibition

As you know, TFW was opened with this fabulous photo exhibition. As much as Tamuna Ingorokva is one of my fav designer, i was a lil bit sad because i wanted to see her défilé. Anyways, this collaboration is really gorgeous. As clothing are necessary for this Mawi accessories to make them more brilliant, the same is on a contrary. Loved her suits with different colors, with peplums, shapes. Mawi accessories are also must-haves. I do prefer sunglasses on the 4th photo and the black jacket with peplums on the first one.

Which is yours?

My Details During TFW

Why i've posted about my details is that each of them are necessary for outfit to be finished. Each of you must try hard to have a strongly different look with your details. In my first photo, im wearing pointed-toe shoes with crystal heels + floral printed skirt. On my second photo im wearing neon asymmetrical shirt with collar + floral skirt ( Must-haves for this season). On the next one, im wearing floral shirt and palazzo pants which are really chic for this season and of course proper colored bag from NEW LOOK.  What about the next look? Blazzer over shoulder, lace shirt and floral printed pants are really well-appeared, doesn't ? And finally my adorable espadrilles styled heels from H&M(As many of you asked me about the brand).

Hope each of you will have ur individual style."In order to be irreplaceable you must be different"-Coco Chanel.

Keti Chkhikvadze Fall Winter 2012-13

First of all, what i want to say is that the collection was proper as a thematic to fall winter 2012-13. I loved some coats with fur a lot. Mix of golden and black colors are really chic for this season. I liked some chiffon dresses also with different colors but i think that leggings with wild prints was too much extra for this collection! I can really say that without those items, looks would be better than it was. Red dress with collar was also fabulous and proper to s/s 2012-13. Finally some items from collection was really good.

Which Look Of Mine Do You Prefer The Most From TFW?

Please feel free to tell me your opinions!

My Look At The Closing Day (TFW)

Datuna Sulikashvili Fall Winter 2012-13

Datuna Sulikashvili fashion show was just amazing!!! No words are available to express the feeling i've got with this performance. Best show i've ever attended in Georgia!!! Such a fabulous costumes, make-up, hairstyle, place!!! Want everything, colors black, golden, white and light pastel blue. Heels as a slippers styled. Great show elements! Just adored. Have a look of this fabulous show!!!

Atelier 10a Fall Winter 2012/13

First impression? Make-up! Deja vu? GIVENCHY! Anyways, first look with camel color, suit as a dress was really beautiful. Pointed-toe shoes was also trendy, but what else? nothing was to emphasize and say that the show was gorgeous.Just only some looks with striped leather and wide pants.

Tinatin Chigladze (Newcomer) / My Fav Collection!

Why my fav collection from newcomers? Because i liked the show totally!!! First of all i want to emphasize that Tinatin made the collection with a big responsibility, why? Because almost all designers don't care about having proper footwear, accessories and so on. Her collection's theme was really well-expressed with those 5 look. Golden asymmetrical skirts, leather and my fav electric blue was very impressive. Cuffs was also presented as an accessories that are chic for this season. What about shoes? Designer presented brother creepers on a creative way, including sandals. The last blue dresse was also amazing. And what would you think will by final gorgeous item that i loved a lot? Of course eyewear that i took straightaway for the evening shows. Wish u a great success as u can really say a new word in Georgian fashion.

My Look at Evening Fashion Show's (DAY2)

I want to say that those fresh sunglasses are from the previous fashion show. Thanks to Tinatin Chigladze who participated at newcomers competition during TFW. Post about her fabulous défilé will be available as soon as photographers give photos to me. Of course i've taken but i need more professional photos to express exactly what she really wanted to say.

BTW Photos are taken during Lela Eloshvili fashion show. Post about her collection CLICK HERE 

Informal - Lela Eloshvili A/W 2012-13

Everyone knows fashion brand Atelier Informal, were two very talented Georgian girls Lela and Teo were working together. For now, they decided to make collections by their own. So for this season we were able to see Informal's ( Lela Eloshvili) fashion show. To be honest, when i checked her lookbook shot by Anastasia Paichadze, i was a lil bit surprised. I want to emphasize that about collection no words are available to express how much i liked it. Designer chose 50-60 women's face and presented it on a fabulous way. What i loved from her is that each detail including : proper make-up, hairstyle, accessories was well-done. I loved colors too much. Show was really impressive, but to be honest i didn't liked such kind of shoes with those clothing. But finally what i think is that Lela cared about each details, that's just like as a deficit in Georgian fashion shows. Theme was exactly presented and she really said a new word for 2012-13 season.

TFW Fall 2012-13 Opening Day

Davit Tchalidze Photography

Today opened Tbilisi Fashion Week Near Buddha Bar. The event was opened by Tamuna Ingorokva photo exhibition. Designer made a collaboration with Queen Jewelery Mawi. After that designer Aka Nanitashvili presented fall winter 2012-13 collection. To be honest i liked collection very much and i would wear all of them with a big pleasure but only right now, not for fall 2012-13. Pastel and color-blocking, asymmetrical dresses and skirts, collars and lace, espadrilles were main trend of her collection. I can say that it was best collection Aka ever showed but i think that for fall 2012-13, she would offered something new, not the outfits and trends that are too much from lasts season's fashion shows. Now you can check out the collection. Can't wait to hear your opinions. BTW photos of my whole look will be available ASAP ( when photographers will send them to me :))

Floral Boom

The legendary YSL logo

Was designed in 1963 by Adolphe Jean-Marie Mouron a/k/a Cassandre

 That logo was designed by 1963 Adolphe Jean-Marie Mouron a/k/a Cassandre , a Ukrainian-French painter, commercial poster artist, and typeface designer. That YSL logo never withered over time. It can be reduced to monochromatic severity or overlaied in orange and fuscia and still remain totally and eternally YSL. It's minimal and feminine, deco and disco. It testifies to the wisdom of judicious choices and relentless taste. 

Hermès Leather Forever - Exhibition

Celebrating 175 years, since the house was founded by Thierry Hermès in Paris, Hermès has taken residency at London's Royal Academy, with an exhibition dedicated to the brand's history and dedication to craftmanship. Alongside iconic designs – including the Kelly and Birkin bags, saddles and silk scarves – and an insight into leather, colourways and production techniques, the comprehensive exhibition incorporates a temporary "workshop". Cleverly acknowledging that interactivity is key to a successful exhibition, artisans from the Hermès workshops in Paris will be in situ demonstrating the art of leather working by creating some of its iconic works.

Leather Forever also showcases four one-of-a-kind versions of its Passe-Guide handbag, representing England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales, which will be auctioned later this month. First created by designer Henri d’Origny in 1975, all four of these unique versions have been re-imagined by Couli Joubert, Hermès’ artistic director of leather. Each bag is then handmade using time-honored techniques in the Hermès workshops in Paris, where one craftsman has made each bag from start to finish.

Dresses For S/S 2012

BCBG Max Azria

First of all i want to emphasize that i made this post as many of you asked me to do. This post is made for the people who are finishing schools and want some inspirations for dressing up. First of all what i want to advice each of you not to forget S/S 2012 trends (Click here to check out). Hope some of the presented designers will inspire you but try hard to use pastel colors, prints including floral, tropical, fruit, birds and wild. Try to use chiffon and lace materials. Stripes and tartans also, it depends on look. Peplums is also very chic and i've offered David Koma and other designers clothing with peplums. What else? Without accessories outfit is not finished. So try hard to use beautiful necklaces with strictly different color from your outfit. What about heels? Sharp-nozed and pointed-toe shoes are very trendy for this season. Asymmetrical dresses is also very chic. BTW Etro, Valentino, Roberto cavalli collection and dresses for this event will be available in our store "Roberto Cavalli" at Chavchavadze Ave, N58. If any questions, feel free to ask on my facebook page Anobano's Blog.
