Fashion is unpredictable and bizarre but affixing model’s feet to their shoes with glue is extremely uncanny which might not anyone has heard before. But yes this is very true; one of the pioneers of fashion, Marc Jacobs the creative director of Louis Vuitton has implemented this innovative idea on his models before they could hit the runway.

The Sunday Times, Style magazine disclosed “At the Louis Vuitton SS12 show, the teetering mules are stuck to the models’ feet with wig glue. It may be a nightmare to get off afterwards, but it’s just one of the backstage tricks that Marc Jacobs and his team use to ensure that everything is perfect on the day”.

To ensure that his models don’t lose control over their high heels on the landing strip, Jacobs fastened their feet with the designer foot wears by implying wig glue. Jacobs who is already admired for his extreme creativity and perfection doesn’t want to take any chance with his shows. The designer for his last show has apparently splurged around $1million and he gives exclusively three months before any of his collection hit the runway. During his last show this technique was well executed by Jacobs bringing him enormous applauds though walking with the wig glue was not as comfortable as bed of roses and later getting the glue and the shoe separated was not that peaceful too. But has to agree, the method has done wonders while Lindsey Wixson walking for Versace couldn’t hold control over her high heels, Louis Vuitton  girls posed splendidly.

When a designer is under extra pressure what else can he or she do, there is always high expectation from ace designers like Jacobs. The designer has been also signed with the responsibility of concluding the Paris Fashion Week every time which is a huge task and calls for precision.

With a parade of pint sized models sauntering down the ramp, the day 2 of the India Kids Fashion Week 2012 in Mumbai saw the layers of the kids’ fashion unfolding which many mommies around the country gazed at without a blink.

The Day 2 witnessed the brands and designers like Coochhie coo, Zoop, 612 Ivy League and Niharika Sharma showcasing their collections. Innocence draped in the glamour of fashion came with this mixed feeling of ‘oh..no’ and ‘oh-so-pretty’ when designer Niharika Sharma came up with her gang of little girls taking the ramp in glamorous swimwear in turns throughout the show.

Meanwhile, girls varying in age appeared in frocks and cute dresses in brighter hues and bolder prints being dominated by colorful hearts. Stocking, colorful sneakers under dresses and fancy head band came up as interesting accessories doubling up the playful and sporty feel of the collection. On the other hand, boys were seen in casual wear donning t-shirts, denim jackets and shorts mainly.

Designer Rahul Mishra for the first time has come up with Indian wear Collection titled Jaama which reflects the garb of the great Mughals. The designer held an exclusive preview of his collection at Ogaan, the luxury fashion abode which is destined in the capital of the country to launch his gaudy range.

Jaama by Rahul reinterprets the contemporary progressive graphics mused on the opulent domes of the Islamic art & architecture. His work which paraphrases the Mughal motifs flaunts a beautiful hand crafted approach. Finest Indian Motifs engineered to perfection blended with the technique of hand embroidery on the loom, exhibits the grandeur of Chanderi in a new Avatar. The designer, one of the pioneers in handloom couture preferred motifs on weaves to adorn his handloom fabrics instead of the usual embroidery. A varied range of embroidered Lehengas, Sarees, Kurtas and Jackets rejoicing the spirit of Festivity compiles Rahul’s Jaama.

Fashion and its inclusive school of thought seems going astray this time when fashion’s blue eyed label, Dolce & Gabbana of late came under accusations of racism in Hong Kong.

The Italian luxury label reportedly banned Hong Kong citizens from taking pictures of its store in the area. The incident sparked a protest causing more than 1000 people showing up outside the store forcing it to shut its operations for a while.

The representatives of Dolce & Gabbana argued that the policy was all about protecting its intellectual property, even if the pictures are taken from the streets. On the other hand, the protestors accused the brand of racism as people from foreign and mainland China were supposedly under no such ban.

However, Dolce & Gabbana issued a press release later to try to placate the people of Hong Kong reading, “We wish to underline that our company has not taken part in any action aiming at offending the Hong Kong public.”
