i love how fashionising describes this collection, shown at Amsterdam fashion week, so pithily: glam warrior. i think this dress proves this phrase perfectly ::
the article's writer, linett kamps, continues her description, saying that "the designer [is] opting for a stronger design aimed at women who are willing to show off their figure."
what i personally love about this collection is that it is different. typically i go for looks that are feminine and classic with a touch of quirky. sometimes vintage, sometimes a little fashion-forward, regardless, i still have a fairly defined fashion aesthetic. this particular collection is just different than my usual. prints, shine, somewhat random ruffles, interesting hemlines and layers - it just pulls me in. most of these looks would be considered a bit risky for a celebrity to wear on the red carpet - hello, sequin polka dots! - but i sincerely hope i get to see some of them soon [alexa chung, carey mulligan, leighton meester -- are you listening up?!].
here are some of my fave looks ::

what i'd most likely wear in my real life [at a wedding, party, etc.] ~
well, minus the train. it's pretty, but just not practical.
what i'd most likely wear in if i went to galas and red carpet events [dream] ~
oh and i gotta say, i love these models' facial expressions!
so rarely do designers allow models to show this sort of personality -- love it!
congrats, AdvK, i love your collection!
