Style Notes: Roberto Cavalli

Spring 2010

For some reason with most hijab-friendly fashion on the runways, it rare to see layering done well. But this time, Roberto Cavalli's collection featured several outfits with light, floaty floral layers over smart tailored pieces. These outfits would be a great way to freshen up workwear this Spring. What do you think?

Spring 2010

Aquascutum have designed a particularly hijab-friendly collection for Spring 2010. Military khakis, trenches over printed maxis and full-length skirts featured prominently. The outfits speak for themselves, but what do you think of them? Is this something you see yourself wearing?

Style Spotlight: Maxi Skirts

Spring 2010

For Spring 2010, maxi skirts have definitely made their presence felt on the runways, with several designers showing just how versatile they can be by working them into different looks. From mixing neutral separates at Chloé, to khaki green military trends at MaxMara, the silhouette was kept clean and simple. D&G went for a wild West theme with ruffled skirts paired with denim shirts, whilst Chanel's rustic outfits combined tweed, lace and chiffon. Marc Jacobs opted for colour and paired printed jacquard skirts with short jackets. Which are your favourite looks?

Style Notes: Reem Acra

Spring 2010

Following yesterday's downpour and shoe-fulls of water (yuck!), I think it's certainly time to cheer things up a bit with a peak at Spring/Summer fashion. First up is one of my favourite designers, Reem Acra. This collection in particular is opulent and feminine - I love the water colour prints on the first two gowns, and the soft, billowing skirts:
