Double Take!
Jessica Chastain, of The Help, wearing McQueen and a piece from the Dolce & Gabbana A/W 2012 runway show in Milan. Looks like they’re shopping in the same fabric store.
Raf Simons is out and Jil Sander is back! Raf’s final designs for the Jil Sander A/W 2012 Milan show was widely noted as a stunning collection and possibly the most touching moment of fashion week 2012. Raf left us with less is more, delicate pastels and neutrals we can get behind. He’s set the bar high for Jil. Can’t want to see what she churns out but until then imagine how much fun we’ll have pairing these outfits with handbags and shoes!
Snapette adores Raf and we wish him the best!

We’re excited to see what Giuseppe Zanotti unveiled for his Fall/Winter 2012 collection at Milan Fashion Week. Until then we feast our eyes on this Snapette post.
Loves!

Burberry Prorsum Autumn/Winter 2012
Waist cinching velvet belts adorned with bows, leather pipping, fur collars, owl embroidered sweaters, and accessories to die for: It was all in the details at the Burberry Prorsum show. From the collection, to the music selection, let alone the mock rain shower during the final walk, this show hands down has our vote for the best at London Fashion Week.
Watch the live stream. Trust us, it’s well worth it!

Anne Bowen, popular among such Hollywood elite as Jessica Alba, Angelina Jolie, Beyonce, and Kate Bosworth, appropriately chose the CPW Gallery along Central Park for her Fall/Winter 2012 Runway Show. Her luxury collection continues to be a means for women to express their confidence and individuality. We’re sure to spot many of these elegant pieces adorned with sparkles, sequins and sheer fabric on the red carpet. The Anne Bowen F/W 2012 Collection was a staple in Snapette’s Fashion Week agenda.
Our Fall 2012 Show may be over, but photos last a lifetime. Thanks to Snapette - a mobile photo sharing app focused on fashion – and their fun photo booth set up in our after party at the Darby, we were able to capture all the goofy photos of our guests, including Rebecca herself. Check them out below…
When viewing Michelle Smith’s Fall 2012 Milly collection, one thing was very present -her use of color! Hues of clover, heliotrope, shocking pink (in the words of Michelle herself), and chartreuse all worked together to create a bold and exciting contrast to her core palette of black and white. They were partnered with super-structured materials, such as tweeds, leather, and bonded wool. Milly made it very clear that her women are sophisticated and futuristic, yet still like to have fun through her clothing and patterns—and we couldn’t have agreed more!

Who knew that Kara Ross graduated from the Gemological Institute of America prior to launching her first line of precious jewelry some 20 years ago! Her passion, which originated from a trip she took with her parents to Africa, now lies in rare foreign stones and exotic animal skins. The showcase was composed of three displays: the Kara by Kara Ross collection comprised of bold “statement pieces” inspired by Ross’s recent trip to Morocco, the gemstone collection, and the handbag collection. The handbag collection is Ross’s newest endeavor. Most are made of exotic animal skins and leather that give each clutch, satchel, and shoulder bag a unique texture.
Snapette has learned exclusively that Kara Ross is planning to launch a new platform of customizable handbags that will allow customers to choose the skin, gem, and design of their choice! Although this will take about 9 months to become available to the market, we’re eager to see what Kara Ross has in store for us in the near future! With this designer already establishing a name abroad in Europe and Asia, there’s no doubt that Kara Ross will soon become a household name worldwide!
The Doo.ri Fall 2012 fashion show took place on the cobble streets of the art district in a minimalist space packed with editors, bloggers (ManRepeller & Bryan Boy) and TV personalities (Brad Goreski of “It’s a Brad Brad World”). Talks of trips to Cape Town and St. John after fashion week halt to a stop once the lights turn up and the music begins. A wave of slow motion fabric in gray, burgundy, lime, navy and winter ivory filter down the runway. The once jaded faces down the aisles now stare with intensity. After 25 minutes of streaming beauty the show ends but the pieces remain etched in the audiences’ mind. Doo.ri’s fall 2012 collection displays how far she’s come since her 2007 launch, but her roots clearly remain in the draping of the fabric. Snapette really enjoyed the show and we have no doubt that her Macy’s collection will be just as fantastic!

The Snapette team was lucky to attend the Guess and Guess by Marciano Summer 2012 Press Preview at Helen Mills Studio on Wednesday night. And what a classy affair it was! For the coming season, Marciano drew inspiration from vintage styles that pay homage to eras past, which seems especially apropos given the brand’s recent thirty-year anniversary. Denim bustier tops, sheer white blouses, and floral print Capri jeans were just a few highlights.
Models were clad from head to toe in playful patterns and bright colors that really popped. Some of the most attention-worthy looks were the subtle yet elegant silk dresses on display in the entrance hall, complemented perfectly with matching shoes and clutches. All of the featured styles embodied the sexy essence that has defined Guess throughout the years. The collection has a summer beach feel to it, with an air of sophistication that we can always expect from Guess. Especially given Wednesday’s beautiful spring-like weather, it truly did feel like warmer times.
And finally, we would be remiss if we didn’t mention that the summer line preview featured a guest appearance by model and actress Amber Heard! As of last March, Heard was named the new face of the Guess campaign. She wore the “Cio” boucle dress by Guess by Marciano and looked absolutely fabulous in it.
We had a blast mingling with friends and colleagues both old and new—and, of course, we were sure to snap photos for all of our fashion-hungry fans and readers out there! Click here to view more photos from the event.
