House of Lussuria now is now made up of two designers! I am proud to announce that Tyler Scott one of my best friends and an extremely talented designer is now my partner at House of Lussuria! Tyler has a classic and and very refined aesthetic. That is why together him and I will make a great design team! Look forward to some posts from him really soon!
Collection Highlights





Colors: There are a lot of neutrals in this collection and I see that as a recurring trend in the collections. Christian also used a lot of metallic fabrics. I love the color palette of the collection besides a few choice transition looks (posted below) I feel They took away from the collection rather then helped it flow.
Fabrics: A lot of clean and crisp fabrics along with metallic brocades. Collection included a lot of cotton and silk/satin as well as some chiffon.
Silhouette: Again I see another recurring trend and that would be the 1970's silhouettes. such as pant suits blazers and blouses. The dresses are more modern day tight to the body with a lot of draping detail.
Details- Thick and thin leather belts, Chic open toe pumps, Tan hand bags and aviators. As for jewelry there was a lot of turquoise...always a good way to spice up the neutrals!
Model Look: The hair was pulled back in a chic bun. The look was young vibrant and professional. The models seemed to be glowing and looked simply beautiful!
Collection Review
This collection was very pleasing to the eye despite a few looks that should have been cut from the lineup. Christian and his team need to use an editing eye and edit down...I feel if this collection contained maybe 7 less pieces it would be spot on. There was too many filler pieces that don't transition well and could be removed to better the show. Overall I thought it was young and refreshing. The pieces where very tailored and made well. Since project runway Christian Siriano has really made a great name for himself! I am impressed by this collection it has its quirks but it really was a nice collection and I enjoyed watching it!Pieces I dislike
Let's be real...only three to four pieces are actually wearable (and only to the most prestigious events) But Riccardo Tisci's latest couture collection for Givenchy is beautiful. These pieces belong in a museum not on models. The artistry and craftsmanship behind these pieces should be appreciated. But I have a problem with all of this unwearable and unwanted luxury. We want luxury portrayed in clothing we can afford and wear. We want practicality and use out of our clothing while looking chic at the same time. Though this collection is not exactly targeted towards the average consumer...but even those who can afford this need to cut back in some situations.
