Fashion Week Style: It's a Lap!

S
You think Fashion Weeks has already ended after London made its curtain call last week? Well, not exactly coz the fashion packs has now gonna redo the thing all over for another cycle when it restarted in Milan, even before London finished. If last January it's all about Milano Uomo and Pitti Uomo, now the tide turns for the womenswear instead, with Gucci has showcased their Fall/Winter 2011 collection last Wednesday. Next stop is Paris... though many have doubts whether Dior gonna make its presence after Galliano's arrest a couple of days ago due to the you-know-what incident. But somehow, what's fashion without its drama too? (I think I might do Amy Winehouse song: They wanna make me go to Dior, I said.. Galliano...no..no.. ahaks!).

Anyway, lets move our attention to something which is equally interesting - the Fashion Weeks style. Previously we've seen tweed making a huge fav among the fashionistos when attending the catwalk shows, from tweed jackets and blazers up to the waistcoats and ties as well. This time, see what they're bringing along with them.

For some fashion packs who think carrying a backpack or totes with them is a big chore (and a major 'workout'), clutching a portfolio folder and laptop cases is another good choice. You not only can store the gadgets and some documents inside, the great thing is it's much more mobile and not too bulky. Chuck things in, zip it (or tab it), clutch it and you're ready to go. And of course, you won't block other people's seats or passageways too when you're sitting to view the show coz they're basically gonna be put on your lap. Easy, right? And a safer bet...

So, if you have the word 'fashionisto' stamped on your forehead, would you be seen in a normal laptop cases? Not unless they're a designer ones. Or at least something quirky cool...


Trussardi?

Thank God your shoes are interesting, coz the lappy is a bit blah...

Ooohhh... in LoVe with this!

Could this be from Ally Capellino? Or no...


This one looks damn buttery soft...

Prada or Pierre Hardy?

Mulberry...

This can't be a Bottega. Or is just an Aspinal of London?

It looks like Chinese characters - but it actually spells 'PR'?

Oh, in case you're a diehard fan of Fashion Weeks and always fly here and there to four major fashion capitals in the world, you might wanna get this tee from H&M. It has London, Paris, New York and Milan on it - in reverse - which I think might be an interesting (and crazy) choice for you to wear during the events. Or give it to your intern instead... ha!
