he Indian designer, Manish Arora, a former star of London Fashion Week, made his Paris debut on Sunday with a collection as dazzling and colorful as a Bollywood movie.Arora, 35, who staged one of the opening shows on the Paris prêt-a-porter calendar, dressed his models in kaleidoscopic embroideries, glittering beadwork and technicolor imagery reminiscent of this month’s Hindu festivals, the Durga Puja and the Ganesh Chaturvadi.One dress, handmade from sequined jigsaw pieces of Swarovski crystals, featured the elephant god, Ganesh. Other jackets, tunics and trousers were applied in silk and crystals with fantasy imagery inspired by a blend of Indian comic books, - Amar Chitra Katha – and the PopArt of the American painter, Roy Lichstenstein.A jacket and shorts ensemble was hand-beaded with a game of snakes and ladders. Metallic henna-ed hands were emblazoned on a white silk shift.Elsewhere, in a nod to the French ready-to-wear federation, which invited him to show in Paris, he showed designs featuring intricate, appliqués of the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, Montmartre and the pavement café scene.The finale ensemble was a long dress with six foot train, completely covered with 1,500 hand-embroidered and beaded butterflies, which glowed in the dark.
Why Buying Lingerie is Easier Online
It happens; even the best lingerie wears out. So you have to make a day to go try on some more. You need a baby-sitter first of course; otherwise the baby or toddler will be sure start crying for attention just when you are in a state of undress in the fitting room. Having teed up your mother or sister to baby-sit, you then need to actually get in the car and go - and find a parking space. Might as well get the groceries while you're at it.
So you finally get into the store and choose some lingerie to take to the fitting room. But maybe you've put on a bit of weight. You don't actually realize this until you are undressed and struggling into that lingerie. So you need to get dressed again and go choose a larger size. When you get back to the fitting room, someone else is in it and all the others are full, so you have to wait. You check the time because your baby-sitter can only stay for two hours.
Wait; there's an easier way. Do without the baby sitter and the hassle of finding a car park. Shop online. All you need is a tape measure and a spare half hour while the baby is having his nap. You can choose the right size, colour and style to suit you and pay with your credit or debit card. And you can do it all while you sit back and enjoy your favourite coffee. If by some chance it's not right, you can drop it in the mail for a return. What could be simpler?
Bridal Fashion Jewelry
The bride is the center of attraction on her wedding day and it is important for her to look her best on that special occasion. Therefore bridal jewelry, chosen tastefully and worn properly, will surely add complement to her wedding dress and make her look as beautiful as any bride should be.
Jewelry refers to ornaments worn by persons, typically made with gems and precious metals. Jeweleries worn symbolize the events, the culture, quality and the temperament of the wearer. For instance jewelry, particularly made with precious materials, is generally considered valuable and desirable and the rest are less expensive and are called costume jewelry. It can also be symbolic, as in the case of Christians wearing a crucifix in the form of jewelry, or, as is the case in many Western cultures, married people wearing a wedding ring. Whatever be the reason or events bridal jewelry needs extra attention.
Bridal jewelry can include old piece of jewelry that had once been owned by his mother, grandmother, or past brides in his family or can be from the collection of new or both can be used judiciously. Antique jewelry that has been passed down to brides in the family from generation to generation would reinforce a sense of family, tradition and continuity in a wedding ceremony. And if the bride prefer to go for the latest jewelry then there are thousands of bridal jewelry stores, both the Internet e-commerce sites and bricks-and-mortar stores, offering a dazzling array of accessories to make the bride shine on her wedding day.
And what can add additional sparkle on the wedding ceremony more than a diamond? Diamonds are ranked by four characteristics: cut, carat (weight), clarity, and color that determine the worth of a diamond. Watch out for the better-proportioned facets that are responsible for the sparkle. Carat is another important characteristic feature of a diamond. A carat means 100 points and 5 carats make a gram. And the last is the clarity. The color of the diamond ranges from D-X for white and yellow diamonds but one can also find green, pink, red, blue and brown diamonds that are usually treated to bring the variety. Not to be duped while making a purchase for the diamond jewelry and get the true value for your money does not overlook the fine print. Diamonds are sometimes filled with glass to camouflage the inclusion and make them appear clearer which can be damaged by heat, ultrasonic cleaning, and by re-tipping. Store your diamond jewelry with precious care because they are brittle and get damaged if handled roughly.
Milan Fashion Week: In the front row [FM8610-78]
*The make-up artist supreme, Pat McGrath, fell victim to every traveller's worst nightmare upon arriving in Milan this week. Ten suitcases were held up in customs, sending members of her team scouring Milan for emergency replacement products, which cost £6,000.Luckily, her first major make-up job was the Dolce & Gabbana boys' D&G collection – the clothes were inspired by Glastonbury and the look was "natural, glowing, with no mascara and a hint of gloss on the cheeks and lips".

In what could shape up to be a major cat fight on the catwalk, a prominent fashion duo, brother and sister Errol and Gloria Arendz, are embroiled in a Cape High Court battle over the way in which Errol has been running the business.His sister and business partner, Gloria Arendz Theiler, who lives in Switzerland with her husband Rolf, alleges that Arendz has excluded her from the business and made decisions behind her back.Theiler wants to investigate the manner in which Arendz has been conducting the business while she was away, but claims he has refused to give chartered accountant Nathan Sarembock access to the records he requires.Theiler said in an affidavit that she and Arendz had built up the business since 1977, with her brother as the creative force. She said she conducted the administration and public relations for the business.She described it as a partnership in the guise of a close corporationErrol Arendz Fashion Designer cc was incorporated in 1986 and took over the business, in which she holds a 35 percent member's interest and Arendz 65 percent.

The New Luxury
In fact, A-listers don't want to be seen with anything costing less than £2,500, according to a recent report. It's no secret that luxury sales have been booming over the past six years. But at a time when the average wage-earner is grudging extortionate housing prices, high taxes and a meagre pay-packet, ostentatious splurging by the wealthy has risen to gaudy proportions as the super rich seek new heights in pampering, price tags and one-of-a-kind items that set them apart.
The over-the-top splurging has surpassed the days where a pair of designer jeans cost £100 and fabulous heels £200. The prices on luxury goods are scarily rising as stores do not see any consumer resistance to uber costly items. Missoni cashmere coats at £3000 fly off the shelves the week they get delivered. And Hermes Birkin bags having waiting lists of eager women wanting to spend £15,000, for the ultimate status piece. And so you won't be shocked to learn that £10,000 handbags and £900 pair of shoes (this season's Balenciaga's cyber sandal) is not unheard of. In fact, you can see them in glossy magazines such as Vogue and Tatler, staring at you from the page, screaming your name.
Even food items are becoming a luxury for discerning consumers. Where once Waitrose' steak tartare had your guests cooing at the dinner table, these days its hand-massaged Japanese Kobe beef served with heaps of truffle. And champagne? Only vintage from exclusive French chateaux bought at auction.

Luxur brands Should Focus on Customers
In an era of volatile economies, rising interest rates and slowdown in consumer spending, luxury goods companies seem to remain largely unaffected.
The simple reason being that affluent consumers continue to spend. Whereas the average citizen may find a tight squeeze on outgoings when the mortgage goes up, the wealthy consumer will shop as before. Luxury goods are said to have high income elasticity of demand: as people become more wealthy, they will buy more and more of the luxury good.
Even value retailers such as Argos are targeting the more affluent shopper, having introduced a range of goods that will appeal more to the middle-class shopper who has greater expenditure and would typically shop in John Lewis than BHS.
This is a sensible strategy, according to The Retail Bulletin, and one that could work equally well for other retailers as attracting senior shoppers are less effected by changing economies and rising rates. Older shoppers have been a forgotten demographic for retailers over the years but in tougher times this could change - especially with the number of older people predicted to grow rapidly around the world.
According to the IGD the number of over 65-year-olds will grow by 153 per cent in the UK between now and 2050 and will have serious spending power.
