#Fashion Steps Out 2015 Part 2

Can’t get enough of Singapore fashion? Here’s part two of my Fashion Steps out 2015 experience.

As the night went by, the runway show just kept getting better and better. The creative genius and innovation of the designers involved in this show is simply astounding, and what’s great about it too is that each designer has such a unique perspective adding even further to the thrill of this annual event.  Whether your personal style is decidedly more feminine or if you’re maybe more of an edgy chic with modern sartorial sensibilities, Fashion Steps Out 2015 has you covered. Orchard Road was filled with infectious love for fashion and amazing energy that night! If you were lucky enough to be there, you’d know what I’m talking about. If not, here are more images from Fashion Steps Out 2015

Francis Cheong

Capturing high glamour to a T, each dress that designer Francis Cheong sent down the streets as a red carpet winner. If you’re looking for inspiration for your next formal event, look no further. Cheong’s collection marries Hollywood glam with ladylike silhouettes and details for gowns that are sure to land you on the best dressed list. I especially love the tulle ball gown with floral embellishments, that dusty pale pink color is to die for.

Moiselle

Check out my previous post on Moiselle’s Spring/Summer fashion show, and you’ll understand why I simply love this brand. Each design is made to flatter a woman’s shape and the silhouettes are both traditionally feminine while conveying a definite modern vibe at the same time. This collection that walked down on Orchard Road has that same magic. Vibrant prints and a predominantly pink collection makes this an easy pick for your summer wardrobe.

Germain

Huge balloons carried by statuesque models down the runway/street exude a playful mood that offsets the crisp and clean tailoring of Germain’s collection. Strategically placed cut-outs, sheer peek-a-boo panels, and contrast pockets and lapels take Germain’s designs a step further. Classic with a twist, Germain is for a woman who is going places wants to look chic while doing so.

Mary Katrantzou

Famed designer Mary Katrantzou is known worldwide and lauded throughout the fashion industry for her signature flair for flamboyant and extraordinary prints and her ability to make them wearable and covetable. Her penchant for colorful prints is highlighted and shown off to its best yet again in her collection for Fashion Steps Out 2015. Her prints are perfect for the tropical weather here in Singapore and can be styled in a multitude of ways.

When fashion takes it to the streets and closer to the people, the results are completely awe-inspiring.

Animal Instinct

There’s a saying that a leopard can’t change its spots. Well, why would it want to? Leopard prints are timeless, elegant, and oh-so-chic. Getting spotted (pun intended) in this modern classic print is the surest way to establish yourself as an in-the-know stylista. If you’re a little print shy, leopard print is a great way to dip your toe into the prints game. Prints are so now, and sporting this sexy and attention-grabbing animal print is such an easy way to look put together and sophisticated. Leopard prints instantly liven up your classic and plain pieces and transport your look from casual to paparazzi-worthy.

I chose to don this updated take on the leopard print on a beautiful, sunny day. An easy and comfortable leopard print pencil skirt allowed me to instantly up the wow factor of my staple layered tank tops. It’s simply amazing how this leopard print can upgrade your chicness right away!

Don’t forget to accessorize ladies! But keep in mind that accessorizing doesn’t always mean piling on the bling and stacking those bangles. Sometimes all you need is a stunning pair of sunglasses (I’m in love with the vintage feel of this pair!), and a casual yet chic pair of sandals that will take you through the day in style.

Layering a gray tank over a black one is a clever styling trick that adds more dimension to your overall look. The layering also picks up on the gray and black colors in the print of the skirt.

Amp up your look even further with a red lip, just like I did. The boldness and sexiness of the red lip totally plays into the sophistication of the leopard print. Va-va-va-voom!

It is astounding how many styling possibilities exist within a single item of clothing. This leopard print skirt is surely a great addition to my style rotation that I am sure to wear again. Leopard print also lends a luxury feel to even the most casual of looks. I love how this print can go om day to night, casual to dressy.

What are your favorite styling ideas for leopard print?

Have a great week ladies!
