Fashion week’s runway shows just keeps coming at us fast and furiously. God there’s no time to breathe here. At the rate of hyperventilation, we’d be dead by the end of Fashion week.

My personal fashion god, Ann Demeulemeester has brought it home again for me for 2010′s Spring/Summer collection. Metal hardware, zippers zippers zippers~!!! The shoes looks suspiciously like those shoes from Chloë Sevigny for Opening Ceremony but upon closer inspection we all know they are more awesome. Bearing similar traits like the length of the boots and the height of the heels to the 2009′s S/S collection, I think we can safely determined that they will be all sold out again.

I’ve been putting off buying a leather jacket cos the humidity in Singapore is just going to kill it, but it seems the inevitable is going to happen.

The jackets with metallic zippers are so full of awesome. I am going to try and make those hair pieces too. In terms of styling, I feel Ann Dem always manages to do the right amount without being too over the top.

The next few pictures makes my glad that I bought my maxi skirt. It seems that the maxi skirt trend won’t be going out of style anytime soon.

And now it is time for me to go dig up my stash of metal teeth zippers and do wonders with them.

Maybe it’s just my overinflated ego, but is it me or do the designers love monoxious? Everything from this year’s fashion week are just so omg-rave-worthy on monoxious.

Gareth Pugh. Where do we even begin? how bout the part where I hyperventilate at the geometric tailoring and ripped fabrics.  Leather jackets? Pass me some tissue to wipe off my drool please.

I love how Gareth Pugh incorporates geometry into his pieces whether literally or subtly. Fashion is like architecture to this man. His futuristic vision may have some choking but personally, I love it. The models look like they are some spies from the future, they look impenetrable and fierce.

Given our obsession with feathers since the Ann Demeulemeester feather headband post, maybe we would attempt to make this crazy headpiece as well. That “maybe” should have its font size increased but umm… we’ll not clutter your screen.

And that last dress is just screaming to me.

They really do save the best for last. Final day at NYC fashion week and the best thing for me for the entire Fashion Week in NYC.

Never really thought I’d say this but I loved every single piece for this collection, I want everything. Usually I’d just pull out 5-6 looks I like and post a review on the collection, if I had done that for this collection, I would be doing it serious injustice.

Phi’s Spring/Summer 2010 collection features crisp whites, khaki and black. We’re usually lovers of monochromatism but we can handle khaki. The fan corseting detail is something I’ve been wanting in my daily wear for a long long time. It’s mindleech I say~!!

I want myself some all of those pants and corsets and jackets. Heck, I want everything. I have already mentioned that but I’d say it again anyway.

And dare I say those shoesssssssssssssss are to die for?

MARRY ME MELBOSTAD. WE’LL MAKE SOME AWESOME BABIES TOGETHER.

Holy crap. Why do we always rush the seasons? Fall isn’t even here yet and we’re up with another Spring/summer collection?

So okay, it’s fashion week in NYC. I was there briefly and had to come home urgently for some personal matters. It was a turmoil of emotions, I felt like it was the longest plane ride ever ( it was srsly ).

So here I am reviewing what I liked best so far from Fashion Week NYC (I’m sorry Alexander Wang, I love you still ).

Clean lines and umm… not so clean lines. Many of the dresses reminisce the Goddess dress from Alexander Wang, with draped details and body contouring. The tights are so much love but would look super unflattering for my legs. *heartbreak*

Where do I begin? Here at Monoxious, we wear any colour as long as it’s black, white or grey.

This collection has successfully set me on a course to locate the perfect pair of skinny black pants/jeans.

The silhouette is clean and I love the drapey looking jackets. The dresses are tailored to fit and I do notice some interesting patchwork going on.

I’m extremely smitten by the knitted tunic with loads of holes as well as the leather jacket with multiple zipper openings.
