Last night, I was one of the select Grazia readers lucky enough to nab a golden (or should that be camel?) ticket to the www.my-wardrobe.com and Grazia 'Great Fashion Road Show.' And where better to host it than Liverpool's Über trendy Malmasion hotel!Fash-tastic my.wardrobe.com took to the road to give loyal Grazia readers an exclusive sneak preview into some of their hottest trends for autumn/winter 2010, and to also showcase the brilliant Dell Inspiron Mini 10 netbook.
What we drank: Champagne and Cosmos
What we ate: mini burgers, finger fish and chips, goats cheese and red onion marmalade tarts
Goody bag: £50 MW gift card, 'Artisan du Chocolat' Mole Chili Dark Chocolat bar, O.P.I 'Off With Her Red' nail lacquer, Lena White £5 off 'spa at home' voucher (HOW spoilt)!
'Trilby's off' to the hostesses with the mostess, Grazia's expert fashion team and my-wardrobe.com stylists, as ladies, my-favourite e-tailer certainly did not disappoint! Initially in awe, (like Fashionistas in a candy store), we quickly warmed up as the MW pieces came to life. A nod to all the hottest trends courtesy of the exquisite models certainly had us wishing the summer season away; Leopard Luxe, Granny Chic, Art Deco, 50's Glamour, 60's Left Bank, Rock Chick and Biker Chic. It was amazing to touch, (Mille Rostock's grey mongolian sheepskin gilet, grrrr), and smell (Mulberry's Oak Alexa small shoulder clutch, mmm) their amazing pieces, as opposed to the usual (daily) visual surfing.
A favourite look of mine was the Studio 54; a Tie Waist Full Length Halter Dress by Halston Heritage teamed with Katia Lombardo Gold Studded Heel Peeptoe Platforms, Kenneth Jay Lane art deco crystal earrings and a Lulu Guiness clutch. Timeless glamour with a sprinke of drama; perfect for any A/W wedding (just don't upstage the bride)!
Thanks to the diffusion lines of Vivienne Westwood Anglomania, Alice by Temperley and Sonia by Sonia Rykiel, the A/W10 trends are accessible, avant garde and fun. Make a statement with pieces such as a Merle O'Grady stunningly perspex necklace, DVF luxe soft tote or a DVF soft cashere scarf in a subtle animal print. Striped tees, trilby hats and leopard fur rocked the Left-Bank look, while Kurt Geiger's 'exclusive' leopard peeptoe clog will have you embracing your inner feline before you can say 'Kate Moss hearts leopard.' Red, camel and different levels of black are the colours du jour, so it seems!
The best accessory of the evening though, had to be my-plus one, my-hubby; 'the only guy in the Mal'. With a crash course in Katia and a heads-up in Halston, I'm r-e-a-l-l-y looking forward to my-christmas stocking this year! Mini market boots and Alexa's baby sister, Here. I. Come.
So thank you Grazia, thank you my-wardrobe, I owe you one! x
