THE MODERN WOMAN

Cushnie et Ochs is a label that I've only recently become acquainted with, thanks to NYFW, although 'acquainted' probably does not do it justice. I fell in love with the label the moment I saw the gorgeous white maxi dress in the first picture below. 

Obviously, the title of this post is quite an assertion to make but it's exactly what I feel this collection epitomises, 'the modern woman' - sleek, sexy and strong. While I'd say Cushnie et Ochs' Spring collection is more formal and feminine than the designs of my fashion god, Alexander Wang, it definitely echoes the same kind of badass vibe with touches of sheer panelling and leather. Kind of a new take on conservative styles and lengths but definitely not boring (unless you consider bare midriffs and thigh-high splits yawn-inducing). The style of the gorgeous cutouts are actually very reminiscent of Wang's (see here for the A.Wang goodness). 

In love!!!

Gorgeous, gorgeous details!!!


On a sidenote, how bangin' are Ms Cushnie and Ms Ochs (the designers, of course)? Nothing better than designers who can rock their creations as well their models can.
