Evening wear and parka might be as different as night and day literally, but this Fall/Winter 11/12 season, some designers had created their versions of evening parkas (the name came from Altuzarra), which means parka made luxurious enough to wear it as a formal evening coat.

Wearing a parka over a gown or a party dress doesn’t sound like a normal thing to do unless you are a red carpet rock chick, but an evening parka simply adds a bit of sporty-ness and edge to a typical formal look, and it keeps you warm during the cold season!

Find out how to look thinner -- without resorting to head-to-toe black.

Go monochromatic
First off, wearing a monochromatic colour scheme is elegant and flattering to all body types, explains Collins. Even wearing an all-white suit, for example, will look good on someone trying to dress slimmer because it doesn't chop up the body. The last thing you want to do is chop up your look with a different colour, which could make even a slim person look stocky.

Stop hiding behind baggy clothes
Make sure clothes fit you properly, Collins suggests. Wearing clothes that are too baggy can easily add the illusion of five to 10 pounds to your frame and make it look as though you are hiding behind something, she says. On the other hand, wearing clothes that fit properly -- not too baggy and not too tight -- exudes confidence.

Add accessories
Accessories are a smart trick for looking slimmer, Collins explains. Adding bangles or a nice pair of earrings is a great way to pull together an outfit and add a tasteful splash of colour to a monochromatic look. Accessories like a pendant or brooch draw the eye up, and toward your beautiful face.

Choose lower waistlines
When it comes to choosing the right pair of pants, Collins says your best bet is to stick with a lower waistline with a flat front and no pleats. A slightly lower waistline helps to elongate your look, she explains. Pants should be on the longer side so there is a nice break at the cuff. Boots will finish the look, lengthen the legs, and can add height and elegance, she says.

Bet on belts
Belts can also be a great tool when trying to dress slimmer. Wearing a belt with a nice buckle lower on your hips will draw the eye to the belt and elongate your overall look, especially if the belt blends with your clothing colour, Collins says. Belts can also help tie a look together, and are a very versatile accessory.

Skinny versus wide pants -- you can wear both
Since skinny pants are still on the fashion radar, there are ways to wear them and look streamlined, Collins says. If you are going to wear skinny pants, pair them with a voluminous top or long blazer, she says. The same principle applies when wearing a wide-legged trouser. Pair them with a fitted shirt or jacket. "The whole outfit shouldn't be completely voluminous or stick straight," she explains. But pairing one with the other makes it simple to dress both slim -- and stylish. Collins also says that if you are going to go with a skinny jean or pant, you ca... Read More

A large number of venerable luxury brands including Alexander McQueen, Bottega Veneta and Yves Saint Laurent are including stingray leather in manufacturing their products.

Stingray, also known as shagreen or chagrin, actually has long been employed in the fashion world. However, it did not gain great prevalence at the beginning, and it was mainly used to design common products rather than being pushed into the luxuries limelight.
Part of the reason was that stingray skin was extremely hard to deal with due to its hardness, which adds difficulty while bending and manipulating to use for the complex requirements of design in current accessories market. Whereas, some manufacturers have taken bold move to remake stingray skin, rendering it softer and use it within complicated designs.

Last season the Alexander McQueen show took place in Paris's bon-chic-bon-genre 16th arrondissement, home to royalty and bankers.
Tuesday night the venue switched to the grittier 'hood of the 19th, home to many of Paris's immigrants. Is the label reminding everyone that as well as dressing the Duchess of Cambridge, furnishing state occasions with opulent dresses and providing New York's Metropolitan Museum with one of its biggest blockbuster exhibitions of the decade, it has a fine tradition of playing agent provocateur?

"This is a collection about excess," warned Sarah Burton, McQueen's creative director, before the show. "It's an exploration of ideals of beauty at their most extreme. We go to such lengths to adorn ourselves that we almost become our clothes or are taken over by them."
She added that she was also thinking about women as objects of desire and, arguably, there was much objectification in this show - first a model with veiled eyes, then one with a veiled face but breasts visible beneath translucent chiffon.
