Indonesian Fashion Designer Meets First Lady
This was a big week for Indonesian fashion designers and not only did the President Obama build a stop in Jakarta, although he touched down right in the middle of Jakarta’s fashion week. While the President was gratifying the ideals of democracy and development at the University of Indonesia, local designers were sending a parade of pieces down the runways eager to found Jakarta as a fashion hub in Asia. Backed by the Indonesian Fashion Designers Association, the objective is to catapult Indonesian designers to the international stage.
The theme of Jakarta fashion week was styling conventional wear with a modern touch. The week kicked off with a compliment to the kebaya (derived from Arabic word for clothing “abaya”), a traditional blouse and skirt combo that most Indonesian women wear. Designer Defrico Audy varied a batik print with metallic silks and red velvets (pictured below).
Other designers wedged with modern designs. Sebastian Gunawan, another designer who got to meet Mrs. Obama, presented a 92-piece collection enthused by old icons (Lauren Bacall, Marilyn Monroe) and new (Rihanna and Victoria Beckham). He showed gowns with high shoulders which he said look mostly excellent on petite women.
Modernity was not mislaid on other designers either. The rash of territory waist dresses paired with platform shoes were every bit worthy of catwalks in New York and can’t you nearly see Beckham in the seam by designer Ninik Darmawan.

Victoria Beckham desires to Be a Good Role Model for Her Children
Victoria Beckham imagines it is extremely vital for parents to be good role models for their children, so she is trying to be just that for her own brood.
The former Spice Girl-turned-fashion designer has three sons with soccer hubby David Beckham: Brooklyn, 11, Romeo, 8, and Cruz, 5, all of whom have ambitions to pursue in their father’s footsteps.
Victoria thinks that children require learning the “value of having a career by considering their parents go out to work.”
“It think it’s a very significant message to provide to children, that both myself and David work,” Posh comments. “My middle one, Romeo, he utterly loves fashion and the other two, they be familiar with what I do [and hopefully will aspire to be just as victorious].”

Fashion-Forward Icons on the Red Carpet at the WWD 100th Anniversary celebration
Often called “the bible of fashion”, Women’s Wear Daily magazine renowned its 100th anniversary last week. The red carpet at the celebration was star-studded with models, designers, and fashionistas, but many had impressive in general: black was the irresistible palette of the high fashion event at Cipriani in NYC.
Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen crooked up representing their line The Row. The twins wore shaggy black fur coats, and Vogue editor, Anna Wintour, was spotted in a coat with a comparable black fur collar. You recognize the Olsen twins must be doing somewhat right if it’s Anna-approved.
Eye catching collars were moreover worn by fashion designers Keren Craig and Georgina Chapman, founders of Marchesa. Craig’s layered gold necklaces were suggestive of a Cleopatra-style breastplate, and Chapman’s fluffy neckline looked similar to an amped-up take on Queen Elizabeth’s ruffled collars. Designer Anna Sui’s Chinese-inspired embroidered velvet cape showed a style for the historical as well.
Though these names in fashion were there to celebrate the narration of the iconic periodical, they also appeared to be paying homage to fashion’s own history.
