The Cut-Out Dress Trend

Sexy cut-outs have scissored their way into mainstream fashion, influenced by the runway designs seen at SS13 fashion week. A multitude of different designers showcased cut-outs in their collections, each with their own unique spin. Here's a look at a trend that's a cut above the rest...</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>On The Runway</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2ns6DhQtZzxcTmRtT5q87dxbkD9GfDa4Xdy1P6BEMxIFw8yj78k3ZM6r7NpzFo9y6TH6CWlmkMV1DWJ-weVKSM9EPMPHWmFdqXS32PZ69W1PoWtMXrjn0KS74usp8Gdeg8WzChy6pV6Zg/s1600/cutout1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2ns6DhQtZzxcTmRtT5q87dxbkD9GfDa4Xdy1P6BEMxIFw8yj78k3ZM6r7NpzFo9y6TH6CWlmkMV1DWJ-weVKSM9EPMPHWmFdqXS32PZ69W1PoWtMXrjn0KS74usp8Gdeg8WzChy6pV6Zg/s640/cutout1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>Michael Kors</i> and <i>Emilio Pucci</i> have already proved the marketability of the trend, with a slew of celebrities wearing their dresses. <i>Balenciaga</i> took the trend a step further by incorporating it into pants suits. Designers like<i> Erdem, Jason Wu </i>and <i>Richard Chai</i> showed off a more feminine side to cut-outs, while <i>Alexander Wang</i> and <i>Cushnie et Ochs</i> kept things perfectly parallel and geometric. <i>Carven, Diane von Furstenburg</i> and <i>Narciso Rodriguez</i> dealt in rich red hues, while <i>BCBG</i> and <i>Roberto Cavalli </i>stuck to a more monotone palette. </span></div><br /><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>Celebrity Inspired Looks</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIweYjf5hkiGFfY6YKKiX9QJbitCYxUZERS4uCnrxH1WELENPZ9v3BiXGJO5pQ7s1J7UQeZ_Dd1bg2hcqLbJsnEJOJNLpup-cAvHbnitFo80w5KQlo70BQkGMIfmyeQTXVBUO1FKGMa1H-/s1600/cutout2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="384" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIweYjf5hkiGFfY6YKKiX9QJbitCYxUZERS4uCnrxH1WELENPZ9v3BiXGJO5pQ7s1J7UQeZ_Dd1bg2hcqLbJsnEJOJNLpup-cAvHbnitFo80w5KQlo70BQkGMIfmyeQTXVBUO1FKGMa1H-/s640/cutout2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">These stylish ladies have all opted for brightly coloured dresses whilst out advocating the trend. Zoe Saldana went for a safari print in <i>Carven</i>. I like Alexandra Daddario's more simple take on the trend in a pretty shade of pink. Nina Dobrev looked like a modern mermaid in her turquoise dress. Irina Shayk & Karlie Kloss were both striking in fitted frocks by <i>Michael Kors</i>.</span></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_0L5yx5dNVywcB9mvnKGiTvyMbZPTkczEvwwil5X9HATu7zX64W_H1UIxj-8CebRmXA32tcpVMWSYyt7snQPmGMLk384oTmQ3reqKIA-VqOPAMupjl5fwb2rgr3XfnSikmm6-S_17ggqM/s1600/cutout4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="408" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_0L5yx5dNVywcB9mvnKGiTvyMbZPTkczEvwwil5X9HATu7zX64W_H1UIxj-8CebRmXA32tcpVMWSYyt7snQPmGMLk384oTmQ3reqKIA-VqOPAMupjl5fwb2rgr3XfnSikmm6-S_17ggqM/s640/cutout4.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Black and white has emerged as popular colour choices to display the precision of the cut-outs on a dress silhouette.

Selena Gomez played it risqué with side cut-outs and a high slit.

The Leather Dress Trend

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This season, the regular time-honoured 'LBD' has been replaced by the 'BLD' or as we know it - the 'Black Leather Dress'. This massive trend has been building momentum since the Fall/Winter 2012 fashion weeks in February, seen on catwalks from New York to Milan. Easy to style and effortless to wear, the little black leather dress serves as an edgier (and warmer) alternative to your classic LBD, dispensing a glossier, goth chic appeal. </span></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">On The Runway</span></b></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgjiAu41_SasZElwZP1okMXRtx6S-vi9UoX0Su5NUZgh48ClBZ2WLNGa4p0iFpidjeT8iJd7VO6Sif3gjvT0bVXsIDsm29FZ40pF3lzNydZKXeiWVQODTeLho53Y99-omjFHERH2yDi-WB/s1600/leatherdresses.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="486" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgjiAu41_SasZElwZP1okMXRtx6S-vi9UoX0Su5NUZgh48ClBZ2WLNGa4p0iFpidjeT8iJd7VO6Sif3gjvT0bVXsIDsm29FZ40pF3lzNydZKXeiWVQODTeLho53Y99-omjFHERH2yDi-WB/s640/leatherdresses.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The misconception that leather dresses have to be skintight and curve-hugging has been dispelled thanks to designers like <i>Valentino</i>, <i>Gianfranco Ferre</i> and <i>Jean Paul Gaultier</i>, who have created more capacious versions.

Winter Hair Trends 2012

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Don't get stuck in a hair rut as the temperatures dive lower. This season, getting that straight-off-the-catwalk hair is easier than ever with a series of trend-driven hairstyles. All these ideas are effortlessly chic and simple enough to accomplish just with a handful of hair clips, hairspray and hair bands. This is your Fall/Winter 2012 runway-to-reality hairstyle inspiration.</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Elegant Upstyles</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilRKrP1bMBNTf0PO_KZtvY0QB693ZVFOpWBxLpNUkXk06Yp4dQpMyWZGbwDcn1psZ1tZ3J8_TWu1b3bfjORIAZ7V_JWToK7yrYAGSaUjHoaIE1EciqkZos8iDl6sC_N6gJB-UDFgw6B-40/s1600/fallhair.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilRKrP1bMBNTf0PO_KZtvY0QB693ZVFOpWBxLpNUkXk06Yp4dQpMyWZGbwDcn1psZ1tZ3J8_TWu1b3bfjORIAZ7V_JWToK7yrYAGSaUjHoaIE1EciqkZos8iDl6sC_N6gJB-UDFgw6B-40/s640/fallhair.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Neatly folded French rolls, classic ballet buns, undone chignons - the upstyle takes center stage this season. To attain this timeless look, pull your hair into a ponytail with an elastic hair band, comb over to ensure there are no bumps, and twirl hair round into a coil with hair pins. Spray to hold. Leave a few loose ends as did the <i>Michael Kors</i> models or defy gravity with hair wax as seen at <i>Preen</i>. Take notes from <i>Cacharel</i> and add cute colourful clips or an embellished headband as styled at <i>Dolce & Gabbana</i>. The best way to combat a bad hair day, this ladylike look can be done on both wet or dry locks.</span></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Twists and Braids</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUcKtQ8vimeo0EF-o1nYHawA8ujNIJTQ8r70Hs-3SPMUdVWXSeAQ9CWPwsKOUOeJWBWR-_CL0UU8Ay3XqvRB8xQhSNwXVYyLdx_9cF0JNC5MCTmU2fXfx71bj76PdMNbc0lZ4VFm1Zv5dr/s1600/fallhair1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUcKtQ8vimeo0EF-o1nYHawA8ujNIJTQ8r70Hs-3SPMUdVWXSeAQ9CWPwsKOUOeJWBWR-_CL0UU8Ay3XqvRB8xQhSNwXVYyLdx_9cF0JNC5MCTmU2fXfx71bj76PdMNbc0lZ4VFm1Zv5dr/s640/fallhair1.jpg" width="618" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Put a twist into your daily hair routine with a few pretty braids.

Ponytails are worn high, low, perfectly in precision, or loosely fastened for a laid-back look. Secure your ponytail at the nape of your neck, leaving a strand loose to tie over and conceal your hairband. Smoothen down any flyways with some hairspray and <i>voila</i> - the polished ponytail will provide you with ultimate sophistication in under 3 minutes with no effort involved at all. </span></div><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Bouffants</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip-cqxDx72Vl0xCmNhZ1b470Od1dHI_2Kcr0R95GBrPKIpt7GieVdXI3qUmAarulxHh_wzXd3c84NvekHCnQ5-9uCoIBrf56NUYcfWdTjyGTnMBXzyHtbKZqe6SWdl1umktuA6HBv5BJny/s1600/fallhair4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="534" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip-cqxDx72Vl0xCmNhZ1b470Od1dHI_2Kcr0R95GBrPKIpt7GieVdXI3qUmAarulxHh_wzXd3c84NvekHCnQ5-9uCoIBrf56NUYcfWdTjyGTnMBXzyHtbKZqe6SWdl1umktuA6HBv5BJny/s640/fallhair4.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Pump up the volume with the elevated & dramatic bouffant, set to add glamour and height to your style.

A good shine serum and exceptionally brilliant hair iron is your ideal way to attain this not-a-hair-out-of-place hairstyle. Parting your hair in a middle part adds to the chicness of this look. Be bold and take it one step further with blunt bangs as seen on the <i>Marni</i> models and at <i>Elie Saab Couture</i>.</span></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Loose Locks</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyxWYc4CSfc_k5AsHnVY03e54ROWahAIGHrSqJ4IbWOKFQcr06P5nNoxBMkAEnlELodscxl0q5h7F2sH6000UsJPCZIUHWEybnAhGUEiSM5qJ5ehWvy2UkvVL3fx-WFawqCi9b1m3isyYq/s1600/fallhair6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyxWYc4CSfc_k5AsHnVY03e54ROWahAIGHrSqJ4IbWOKFQcr06P5nNoxBMkAEnlELodscxl0q5h7F2sH6000UsJPCZIUHWEybnAhGUEiSM5qJ5ehWvy2UkvVL3fx-WFawqCi9b1m3isyYq/s640/fallhair6.jpg" width="620" /></a></div><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;"><b><br /></b></span><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The get-out-of-bed-head look is the least complicated style to achieve this Fall.

If you have straight hair, braid your hair in several sections while its still wet, allow to dry, spray & unwind your curls. Hot rollers or a hair iron can be used alternatively to get this sexy style. Glamourize the trend with a severe side part as seen at <i>Lanvin</i> or volumize by drying your hair upside gown with a hair dryer to achieve the <i>Just Cavalli</i> look. </span></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><br /><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><i>Which of these Fall/Winter 2012 hair trends are you most likely to try out?</i></b></span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
