J. MENDEL
I mean, how could it NOT? Black Swan has grossed over $60 million, won countless awards, and stars the beautiful and talented Natalie Portman. As impressive as that may be, there are so many other films with popular stars and high profits. The lasting impact will come from one major aspect that we all noticed, fashion-obsessed or not- the COSTUMES!
The outfits in films that revolve around artistic performances like ballet, ice skating, and theater almost always include fashion that is to die for. Literally so in Black Swan. The premise is a bit too thriller-esque for my taste, but luckily I have been able to enjoy it beyond belief through the film stills and promotional photos.
J. Mendel's Fall 2010 presentation happened to be the perfect way to end our Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week.
Fur, beautiful people, Moet and Kate Lanphear - what could be better than that?
The clothing - which was fabulously furry - ranged from beautiful long fabric-laden gowns to short mini frocks with crystal or pleating details.
Each dress had its own identity, wit and elegance. And though there was plenty of black within the bevy, it came off as extremely discreet, allowing various intricate details to lead the way. In addition, reds, silvers, browns and a beautiful peach hue followed in tow.
And of course, the girls donned cute Christian Louboutin booties with their looks.
