The Celinish Closet

[drove all night]

I just watched the Lanvin and Balmain shows at hte Paris fashion week!! there is a lot of good things for Celine for next fall!!!!

 

 

 

oh no no no .... as I seen at balmains vision: the return of the shoulder-pad?!?!?!!?

no, dear "style god" don't send us back these ......

[Frida]

^ Hah, they aren't normal shoulderpads, they're shoulderpads on steroids...

[drove all night]

^ Hah, they aren't normal shoulderpads, they're shoulderpads on steroids...

 

 

 

you're damn right, frida!!!!

 

but pllllllease tell me that it isn't a trend ... are there others, who will follow? and pllllease celine: DON'T BUY THIS STUFF. shouldpads are the worst thing designers ever brought to life .....

[MTJ]

I was reading the Sartorialist today and commented on how popular the Balmain jacket is. I think we can consider it a future trend.

I was reading the New York Times Fashion Section the other day, and I ran across two ominous Balmain references:

 

Still, what tripped me up were the moments that revealed his impetuousness, like glittering minidresses that came too close on the heels of those now ubiquitous Balmain-influenced styles, and more evening dresses with cutaway fronts and endless trains, similar to those from Mr. Theysken's poorly received spring collection. ("Theysken's Swan Song," by Eric Wilson, May 6)

 

Balmain is designed by Christophe Decarnin, the man widely credited with having led the recent fashion charge back to the 1980s. And his fall 2009 show presented the curious spectacle of people almost old enough to qualify for a half-price fare on the subway (Anna Wintour turns 60 this year) watching people well below the legal drinking age parade around in a type of glitter rags whose hooker glamour may charm the latter but which the former would probably prefer to forget they ever owned. ("It's Beauty's Illusions They Recall," by Guy Trembey, May 6)

 

Question: Do we try to warn Céline?

It's too late! The Balmainia has already begun!

YES!!! PLEASE LET US WARN CELINE!!!! But as she already lived at the time these ugly shoulderpads were "in" ... maybe she has in her memory how ugly they were and that they are really not designed to make a woman (more) beautiful!!!!

[Jacqui]

In the words of my little brother, regarding shoulder pads: "why do women want to make their shoulders look like men??"

[VintageCeline]

Am I the only one who thinkgs they look cute?

 

It's not as if it is like this -

The dress was in Harper's BAZAAR from January

 

 

Have you seen this dress? http://www.zimbio.com/Zac+Posen/articles/1...lie+Cole+Celine

 

Who Wore Zac Posen Better? Natalie Cole or Celine Dion

EmailWritten by fashioncritic on Dec-20-07 12:58am

From: redcarpetfashionawards.blogspot.com

 

 

Singer Natalie Cole first wore this red plunge-neck Zac Posen Spring 2007 gown with a large pink bow to the Grammy Awards in February. She accessorized with a silver chain and carried a silver clutch.

 

Celine Dion also wore the same dress to her Vegas Final Show Party at Pure nightclub last week. She also wore a silver chain and added a gold bracelet.

[drove all night]

oh celine, plllllleeeeeaaaasssse .... don't wear these too much. please remember!

 

but, by the way, maybe balmain got the influence from celine ? look balmain Fall 2009 Ready-to-Wear vica Celine 1980-something

[kathyc25]

I saw in the latest issue of cosmo or glamour can`t remember which that military jackets are really big right now...Balmain has one that`s like a greyish color and I think its actually pretty cool

[MTJ]

I didn't mind most of the shoulder pads or designs of the '80s, what I did mind were the horrible fabrics. At least now the designs are made in natural materials like silk and leather. Also, the colors aren't as extreme as in the '80s. Intense design and color is too much for me. But now I think there's a calmer good mixture of the two.

Hi All,

 

Does anyone know the label of the grey dress that Celine wears to and from the show in her A New Day dvd in the behind the scenes footage. It's a sleeveless grey dress with an open back and a balloon hem. She wears it with the leggings and it looks hot hot hot!!

[MTJ]

Balmain

 

And I think the purse is Marc Jacobs

^ Cool article! Celine is the hottest looking one of all!!

I didn't realize Balmain is THAT expensive. A jacket for $5,000... and Celine has quite a few! Dang

I also like this outfit from Celine very much.

I am not at all convinced about this one. I have a strong feeling that I've seen it without a jacket but I can't find it anywhere. So there's a big question mark on that one

[mirage]

i can see her in these outfits... :D

hej frida,

I'm sorry, but it's not the dress ... I've made a screenshot for you. It's from the "all access"-dvd. The dress is sooooo coooool

And I'm pretty sure "our Celine-style-spy Frida" will find out you's the designer ...

 

thank youuuuuuuuu

[Frida]

I KNEW it!! Thank you so much!

 

It's this Bottega Veneta then:

damn!!! you are soooo quick! well as you just hat the picture with the hem it could have been this balmain-dress but as you said, you aren't so sure I guessed if it could be lanvin, because it had bin a little of the style of that one, which Celine wore at the Oscars 2007. but now I know that I don't know nothing about style! Thank god I / we have you!!!

 

thanx again
