With her mix of youthful, elegant dresses, rich in tones of deep red, gold and beige accessorized with stunning headpieces Puji's SS18 collection was a beautiful celebration of diversity.

La Morte has created a collection of pieces made from vegetable tanned Italian leather and hand dyed Italian Suede. Along with traditional Indian silk Sari’s that were born from recycled material from female survivors of domestic violence who are coming out of domestic violence shelters.

Neubryn’s SS18 collection was born out of a mask that designer Martha Gibb’s spotted during one of her walk’s down Hoi An in Vietnam, with the idea of reinvention as the starting inspiration of the collection.

Sereal’s SS18 collection was inspired from the idea that women and nature are eternally connected as both are powerful yet delicate.

Nolcha Shows once again presented a collection of burgeoning designers at this years NYFW.
Eva Yinwei Xu, the designer behind ‘All comes from Nothing’ was the first designer to show. Xu showed a collection that reflected both an artistic flare that was beautiful in its simplicity. With an aesthetic that was minimalistic in structure, but art inspired in their prints, the collection was wearable for everyday but reflected a creative personality without overwhelming.

China Fashion Collective showcased their SS18 collection of selected designers in New York on September 10th at Pier 59 Studios. Started by Han Media in 2016, the showcase gives the selected fashion designers the opportunity to present their talent to a global audience. This year giving the spotlight to top bridalwear designer, Tsai Meiyue as well as the new talent of couture designer, Vancy Law.

Following on from the huge success of her first makeup range with Estée Lauder, Victoria Beckham released her second collaboration with the brand in August 2017 and used the VB X Estée Lauder collection for her SS18 runway show at NYFW this week.

On the 9th September, the Business of Fashion hosted their fifth annual #BoF500 Gala at Ian Schrager's Public Hotel in partnership with Target. This marked the first year the event has been held in New York.

Tadashi Shoji showcased his SS18 collection in New York at the Skylight Clarkson on September 7th. With the inspiration of Los Angeles, he showed a collection of ethereal dressed up bohemian dresses, and stunning fairytale dresses to truly knock us out before the show ended.

For it's SS18 collection the designers and cousins, Shaikha Noor Al Khalifa and Shaikha Haya Al Khalifa showed a collection inspired by Bahrain, the duo’s home country, with the use of both cotton and silk fabrics the collection showed a re-interepreted vision on the traditional Bahrain silhouette.

Summer might be coming to an end, but there's one look that as long as the sun is still shinning we'll be wearing, the one shoulder look! Everyone from Kendall Jenner to Rosie Huntington-Whiteley has been loving the trend. With a one shoulder on a show stopping dress, ala Jenner or on a casual top, the silhouette is versatile and ultra feminine.

See-through lace can be a tricky trend to pull off. Worn wrong it can either look too revealing or too layered, can look a little drab. However love it or hate it, it's a hard trend to ignore. There have been some great pieces out recently with Dior leading the charge with their gorgeous netting skirt which was seen on the likes of Chiara Ferragni.

Looking good at the airport and feeling comfortable during the flight might sound like an impossible task, but there are some great tricks to staying comfortable during travel without sacrificing your style!

Stripes have always been a wardrobe staple, however this summer they've taken on a whole new level of chic and become the must have fashion essential for that perfect holiday wardrobe. Primarily in navy and white, stripes are without doubt the hero print for summer, don't believe us? Take a look at some of the looks below!

Embroidered pieces are having a major moment this summer, from flowery embroidered shirts, dresses, swimsuits, denim and even leather jackets. It's a trend that is showing no signs of going anywhere and I couldn't love it more! See some EV's favorite looks for inspiration and join us in wearing a piece of nature on your shirt this summer!

Set in an exclusive house in Beverly Hills, Jordan Brand opened its doors up to introduce their new Fall '17 line. With a drone-flying overhead to capture the palatial mansion and its stunning surrounding views, I meet David Creech, VP of design outside the black garage doors at the front of the mansion. As he clicks to roll the doors up, we enter the start of the presentation. At the center of the garage sits a Ferrari and surrounding that, the new Fall '17 collection. Creech explains that the entire collection is inspired by the heritage of the Jordan Brand with the influence of, "Michael Jordan's style both on and off the court" but with it they’re creating, "A new design language."

In 2008 the nude lipstick was seen as a trending makeup look. It was the year it was all over the autumn, winter runway; Bobby Brown even dedicated an entire line to the trend called Shimmering Nude and Nars also brought out a collection of neutral lip colours.
Fast forward eight years and the nude lip has become as classic as the red lip. Why? It’s sexy, still draws attention to your lips but allows you to wear a bold eye or a strong cheek colour at the same time.

No one can be blamed for thinking the pricier the product, the better it is; however this isn’t always the case. Whether buying makeup or moisturizers, there are some amazing products that you can pick up from your local drugstore that will do the job just as well (and sometimes even better!) than expensive department store products. Whether it’s a mask for your hair, or the perfect blusher, here are EV’s top drugstore picks that will have you glowing and shinning whilst not breaking the bank!

In a time of such political unrest, where everyday on the news there seems to be another jaw dropping moment of, ‘What on earth is happening now?’ I’m not going to sugar coat it, it’s hard sometimes to write about fashion and share it on social media without feeling, (whilst everyone is tweeting about the latest bombshell) a tad / a lot (depending on the bombshell of the morning) superficial as I’m writing about a designers latest collection....

For many women, finding out they are pregnant, given the right situation can be the most incredible time. However it can also be a time with a huge amount of apprehension as her life within ten months will never be the same again.

When you hear the name Robin Shou, there are a few things that might come to mind. An iconic Hong Kong movie star, Liu Kang, ‘The Chosen One’ from Mortal Kombat, a movie that was made over 20 years ago for $18 million dollars and grossed over $120 million, and is still the most successful video game turned movie franchise to have ever been made...

When I was in New York, I had arranged to meet with designer Minan Wong so I could get a preview of her collection and interview her ahead of her NYFW show two days later. We were set to meet at the store she was stocked in, Flying Solo, located on New York’s fashionable Mulberry Street.

Coachella is as much about the fashion as it is about the music. From gorgeous maxi's, denim shorts, colored lace to casual vests, here is a round up of looks and trends from this years festival. Get ready to be inspired for summer!

THE COLOR OF THE MOMENT: YELLOW!

The color of the moment is without a doubt, yellow. Fashion bloggers have been snapped wearing it on the streets of New York, Paris, London and Milan during fashion month and it was all over the runway for S/S '17. Fashion bloggers including Eleonora Carisi, Chiara Ferragni, and Something Navy blogger Arielle Noa Charnas were amongst those loving the trend! Whether it was full head to toe yellow or just a flash of yellow in the form of a bag or coat the bloggers were nailing the trend. Look no further for a splash of yellow inspiration!

There's nothing more exciting than seeing brand new designers making their debut at NYFW, even more exciting when they have only just graduated. Whilst in New York for New York fashion week I went to see the Art Institute's NYFW SS17 collection where nine designers debuted their work. I took a quick trip backstage ahead of the show to interview four of the designers showing their collection...

As one of only two women in box office smash Magnificent Seven, Eurasian Vogue sits down to talk to Carrie Lazar about the movie and what being a strong woman means to her.

Tadashi Shoji’s runway show which debuted its SS17 Collection at New York Fashion Week at The Arc, Skylight at Moynihan Station on September 9th, 2016 was nothing short of spectacular. With inspiration from artist Wu Junyong, whose video of ‘The Flying Ark’ opened the runway show, the scene was set.

After seeing the three designers behind Yohanix, Kimmy J and Greedilous, chosen from this year's Concept Korea in Seoul the other month it was amazing to finally see their work on the runway at this year's NYFW on September 8th, 2016.

Heejin Kim’s love of visualization and installation art is written all over her collection with the manifestation of wearable art that is both cool urban wear with a twist of the fantastical. Always with an edge of unique detailing that tells a story, allowing a freedom of expression through her pieces.

In the past few years, Korea has undoubtedly become one of the most fashion forward and trendsetting countries in Asia. In the last few years traveling back and forth between LA, London and different countries within Asia, I have seen the influx of Korean designers and Korean culture truly dominate the Asian market and even influence the western market.

You may well of heard of Yvette King. The beautiful TV host, living in Singapore, half Korean, half Australian, 100% gorgeous. King grew up in Australian, with her Australian father and Korean mother. It wasn’t a conventional start in life, her first language was Korean and as a result found it hard as a child communicating in English.

With Chinese Valentine's day just around the corner, if you haven’t had time or are stumped as to what to buy your loved one this year, fear not! Take a look at a few ideas below. And if you're not celebrating Chinese Valentine's Day, why not check out the gift ideas anyway for future birthdays, or even just as a surprise gift!

For a while now, Sportswear has become not just for the confines of the gym but wearable lifestyle collections that we can feel good in both whilst we're working out and as we run errands after.

I couldn't be happier that the luxury Italian shoe brand Perla Formentini has officially launched in the US with their stunning Spring/Summer 2016 collection, which is available now online. The collection includes luxury loafers sandals, ballerina flats, stunning pumps and gorgeous heels.

Karl Lagerfeld has just stepped into new territory and he's made some women very happy in the process! This fall Lagerfeld will be adding engagement rings to his already impressive list of collections.

Let's be honest, high waisted trousers or even paperbag trousers, (trousers with excess material at the top which comes above the waistband) are nothing new. We saw them in the 80's paired with oversized blazers as workwear and every now and then they've made a return to the high street in an updated form.

In a time when so many companies are turning away from brick and mortar stores and relying solely on e-commerce, it’s refreshing to come across a brand that are putting the emphasis of their company on having a storefront. A company that insists on creating an experience for its customers from the moment they walk through the door. Enter, 1denim...

Mascara is one of most common items in a woman’s makeup bag, promising to make eyelashes look thicker, longer and flutterier. However, with many of us wearing mascara every day, is there any truth behind the claims that – horror of horrors – mascara makes eyelashes fall out?

We all know a mother's job is the hardest job out there and with mother's day only one week away there's no better day to show your appreciation! Here is EV's gifting guide to get your mother something truly unique this mother's day.

Beyoncé announced her second pregnancy (this time with twins) in true star style last month, by releasing a stunning set of photos rumored to have been shot by Awol Erizku, a young LA / New York based photographer. At the time of writing this, the photo released on Beyoncé’s Instagram page had over 10.7 million likes. The full collection of photos were later released on Beyoncé’s website.

If you’re stuck for some Christmas ideas, fret not! Whether it’s for the men in your life or the women, we’ve got a selection of ideas for you. Scroll down to see some of Eurasian Vogue’s top picks for the holiday season!!

I have been a fan of Minan Wong’s work from the moment I saw her beautiful collection of elegantly sexy, classic yet modern pieces from her FW16 collection. So you can imagine my excitement when I knew I had the opportunity to not only attend Minan Wong’s show at NYFW but also have the chance to meet Wong in person and get a sneak peak of her collection ahead of the show.

I was first introduced to HyeJin Yoo, head designer and company director of Kumann through my dear friend and fellow fashion editor and writer, Min A. Lee (who has also previously guest written for Eurasian Vogue). Lee had first interviewed Yoo two years ago for Audrey Magazine, and had raved about her. After I saw the Kumann collection, I was also sold.

Whilst I was in New York last week for NYFW I took some time out from seeing shows to go and check out the new Jessica Alba X DL1961 Denim collaboration event that was happening at Brooklyn's newly opened Dry Bar

.

Louis Verdad debuted his SS17 VERDAD collection on Monday,12th Sept in New York, marking his official come back.

YounHee Park’s collection is a perfect reflection of the designer herself, professional but fun, with strong visuals, yet balanced perfectly with delicate details, but instantly recognizable with her strong graphics and colors that are representative of Park’s bubbly personality.

When I first came across PLAKINGER'S designs I was instantly a fan. Their collection is so feminine in silhouette but with elements of traditional men’s tailoring making the cut and structure of each piece elegant and effortlessly beautiful at the same time. In short, true perfection.

Whether your partner is asking for gift ideas to buy you this Chinese Valentine’s day and you are looking for inspiration to add to that wish list, or even if you are planning to blow off the conventional Valentine’s Day altogether and have a fun night in with friends or just treat yourself with a new piece of jewelry this week, here are some great products you should check out now!

The mule is certainly nothing new, it's been around for years, it was being worn in the first season of Sex and The City and long before that. However this summer it's back and cuter than ever.

first heard about Jessie Liu at this years LA fashion week. In a sea of fashion it stood out. With her use of color, lazer cut leather and unique graphics, I wanted to know more.

Good news for sneaker fans!! The awesome ecological shoe brand NOVESTA have announced the launch of their first ever U.S collection of unisex sneaker in the U.S. Available in a low top, called the Star Master and high top, called the Star Dribble just in time for summer!

Situated in Old Town Pasadena, sits Clothes Heaven. As soon as you walk past the store, any fashion lover will have an absolute need to step inside the high end consignment store. The first time I walked past, the store was closed but the window display was enough to draw me back another day.

TV presenter, model and designer Alexa Chung has teamed up with Marks and Spencer's to create a stunning 31 piece collection featuring redesigned pieces from the Marks and Spencer's archive's dating back from the 40s right up until the 90s.

PLAYNOMORE came along at just the right time, a Korean brand established in 2014, they are a company that loves fashion, but refuses to take it too seriously. With their key and most popular ‘SHYGIRL’ bag, the founder, Chaeny Kim wanted to revive childhood memories. Playing with the idea of luxury versus wit, and classic versus pop art, they have created their own interpretation of a new classic

One of Target's hottest collaborations is set to drop this Sunday 9th April with the launch of Victoria Beckham x Target and if people weren't excited enough, Victoria Beckham and Target hosted a pre-launch party in LA for the collection to which the likes of Jessica Alba, Ashley Madekwe and Naomi Harris attended to show us just how gorgeous the collection looks in real life.

Looking to update your wardrobe for 2017? Good news, you don't have to invest in a whole new wardrobe to do so. Likely you'll already have several of these pieces in your wardrobe, or a simple customization will see you looking Spring Summer ready. Scroll down for some of Eurasian Vogue's top 2017 trend updates.

Amy Adams stars as Susan Marrow, a wealthy, immaculately dressed but bored and unsatisfied gallery owner in Tom Ford’s second movie Nocturnal Animals. Opening the movie to a set of obese naked women shown as live art at the opening of Susan’s gallery, we are instantly introduced to the inner workings of Susan’s psyche. A yearning to show the inner truth of the world she lives in, a world far away from perfect, and a desire to break from the seemingly outwardly idyllic life she leads.

I first came across Nocturne when I was browsing Instagram one day as I was on the hunt to discover new designers and stand out companies to feature. Falling into the ‘Instagram hole’ I came across a stunning statement necklace on one account, tapping the ‘tagged photo’ I saw Nocturne’s name pop up.
The piece of jewelry I found myself admiring was unlike anything I’d seen before so I quickly jumped on Nocturne’s account, before hitting the Internet to begin researching the company and as I did I fell in love even more.

We belong to a highly visual world. Social and digital media have allowed us to see international fashion without having to book an expensive flight. Just looking at the growing industry in Asia, fashion has made leaps and bounds.

DKNY by Dao-Yi Chow and Maxwell Osbourne for their SS17 collection that showed at The High Line on September 13th, 2016 was an electric show. With the likes of Anna Wintour sitting front row to watch the beautiful collection of urban athletic wear come down the runway, the show was a-buzz.

It takes a special kind of brand to create a collection that is perfectly balanced with high-end elevated elegant everyday wear, but still has the inclusion of some knockout evening pieces that can take their customer from day to night, in one gorgeous cohesive step, but GM Studio have managed it.

Yohan Kim is no ordinary designer. His viewpoint is strong, his ideas progressive. Having studied at London College of Fashion, Kim quickly made a name for himself, working for MichiKo Koshino whilst still a student, and after two years was promoted to senior designer.

Calvin Klein is certainly on a mission of reinvention. In 2013, Calvin Klein Jeans and Calvin Klein underwear were both bought back by the company. In addition, in April of this year the two designers who had been overseeing the Calvin Klein Collection were fired.

Beloved and legendary fashion street photographer Bill Cunningham sadly died yesterday, Saturday 25th, June 2016 in Manhattan at the age of 87. Cunningham had recently suffered a stroke that resulted in him being hospitalized.

This year I attended the FIDM Debut Runway show. Located in Barker Hangar at the Santa Monica Airport, the venue was grand in both size and set up.

It's hard to believe that the Olsen twins have turned 30 years old today! Perhaps because they have been on our screens since they were infants!

Topshop have once again outdone themselves with their latest summer drop, this time with the stunning Wrap Slip Dress. I first saw this beauty when it came out in England a couple of months ago, (I quickly snapped mine up) before returning to the US and seeing it in their LA store.

H&M have become synonymous with exciting brand collaborations beginning 12 years ago with each one being a complete sell out. Well, brace yourselves as this years is set to be another knock out as this time they have partnered up with Parisian brand KENZO!

EURASIAN VOGUE PAGE MAKES DEBUT ON HARPER'S BAZAAR

This week has been the most exciting yet for Eurasian Vogue (EV). I took a trip to Beijing a couple of months ago and had a meeting with the incredible CEO of Trends Media Group, and Editor in Chief of Harper's Bazaar China, Su Mang (苏总) and after the meeting was offered my own page on Harper's Bazaar China Digital and this week my page was officially launched. It marks an exciting time for Eurasian Vogue as EV continues to grow and gain more readership internationally.
