Haute Couture Fall 2014

Just some favourites I picked out from the latest Haute Couture collections. Collections that always tend to make me wish I was either Cate Blanchett or just impossibly chic. For Fall 2014 I spotted some red carpet gowns I'll be keeping in mind for my Awards Season Red Carpet wishlists, but besides the glamour some more wearable designs caught my eye as well, most notably from Christian Dior. The maxi coats worn over long loose fit trousers are right up my street - and effortlessly elegant.

The oversized knit

(Maison Martin Margiela x H&M sweater, COS jeans, Zara shoes and XXL scarf, Céline bag and Ray-Ban sunglasses)

And without ever actually having any kind of winter this year we seem to be heading straight into springtime again. Stepping out without a coat on and all that. But for this "in between seasons" weather a big cosy knit instead of a coat I think is the perfect way to go.

My PFW S/S 2014 picks

Finally, after sharing my NYFW, LFW ánd MFW picks I'm now sharing some of my favourite looks from Paris Fashion Week. My favourite collections from Paris this time have to be Haider Ackermann, Maison Martin Margiela, Givenchy, Chloé, Stella McCartney and Dries Van Noten. And the Vionnet look that I posted here I really wouldn't mind wearing to a red carpet event sometime! It's so "me" - a perfect combination of casual and dressy with the simple tee worn on top of a sparkly loose fit floor-length skirt. Love.
