Vancouver Fashion Week F/W 2013 Day 5

It was a bittersweet day Sunday, as it marked the last day of shows at Vancouver Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2013. My feet are definitely glad to get a break now, but at the same time I'm already yearning for a new reason to dress up.

Unfortunately, life doesn't stop for fashion week, so we were late to the shows because of work. but we made it in time to see some absolutely stunning designs. My favourite from what we saw was Well Groomed. The designs were variations of Indian lehengas (traditional dresses), all in flattering bright hues and adorned in glamorous jewels and sparkles. The photos just can't do the level of sparkle justice. The heavily weighted hemlines created a graceful sweeping motion as the models walked the runway. I now need to go to an Indian wedding. I already know exactly what I will be wearing! Eva Chen's collection was equally stunning in a completely different way: the designs incorporated many trends like peplum and sheer bottoms in a way that was unique to her style (you'll see what I mean when you see the photos below!). Her dresses were very feminine but had sassy details: feathers along the bustline, mini shorts under a sheer skirt, bright colour-blocked peplum.

As far as my outfit goes, while Day 3 seemed to be all about leather, Day 5 was all about the fur! Other fashionistas in fur included blogger Nina of Nina on the Moon and stylist Sonia if iStyle By Sonia. It's interesting how the trend looked entirely different on each of us! This is one trend that is fairly gutsy to wear, but it'll give your outfit that touch of instant glam!

  1. looking great as always, Britta! I totally love your outfit, every single thing about it. and all those collections you've shared here include something I like and find totally wearable, for example the jacket with neon pink accents and the one with salad green as well. that's my favourite piece!
