Geek-Chic Glasses Are High In Spring 2011

Geek-chic is the new chic, at least for eyewear. From Diane Von Furstenberg's hippie round frames to Rebecca Taylor's bold retro shades, this season sees funky eyewear as the uber-cool accessory.

Cool enough for the red carpet even. At the recent Los Angeles premiere of "Rio", actress Anne Hathaway gave a nod to the geek-chic trend with a pair of nerdy specs. And we have to admit, those oversized tortoise-shell designer glasses really framed her gorgeous eyes in an adorable way.

To ace the trend a la Hathaway, wear geek-chic glasses with tousled hair -- super-neat buns or ponytails can look too secretarial. Also do be generous with your mascara, so your eyes won't disappear behind the glasses.

Ready to channel your inner geek? Here's how to pick your perfect pair:

Choose the right frames

  • For a timeless style, opt for classic tortoise-shell or retro plastic white frames.
  • Square faces: Go for oval and round frames.
  • Oval faces: Most frame shapes work for you.
  • Long faces: Tall frames visually help shorten your face -- avoid small frames that make your features out of proportion.
  • Round faces: Angular and geometric styles like rectangular and cat eye frames make your face appear longer.
  • Diamond faces: Opt for cat eye, oval frames and rimless styles.
  • Heart faces: Go for bottom-heavy frames that add width to lower face, or narrow round frames that soften the forehead.

As Fashion Bug and plus size develop into a recognized and (soon-to-be) respected section in Fashion Bug, so do the idiosyncrasies and most importantly nuances of Fashion Bug itself, as it pertains to plus size. You see, ten years ago, plus size only belonged in one lump segment, leaving us Fashion Bug with very little or if any options for online shopping and discerning which pieces were of a “Fashion Bug” standard.In Fashion Bug, the majority of your time was spent learning to create Fashion Bug illustrations, draping, sewing, and flat patternmaking. While these are high-quality skills to have, they aren’t very sensible when you’re trying to land your first job in the Fashion Bug industry. In the real world you’ll be predictable to know how to make computerized flat sketches, develop garment specs, CADs, and appearance boards. Contribute a better translation:

History Of Fashion Designing

What Is Fashion Design ?

Fashion design is a form of art dedicated to the creation of clothing and other lifestyle accessories. Modern fashion design is divided into two basic categories: haute couture and ready-to-wear. The haute couture collection is dedicated to certain customers and is custom sized to fit these customers exactly. In order to qualify as a haute couture house, a designer has to be part of the Syndical Chamber for Haute Couture and show a new collection twice a year presenting a minimum of 35 different outfits each time.

Ready-to-wear collections are standard sized, not custom made, so they are more suitable for large production runs. They are also split into two categories: designer/createur and confection collections. Designer collections have a higher quality and finish as well as an unique design. They often represent a certain philosophy and are created to make a statement rather than for sale. Both ready-to-wear and haute-couture collections are presented on international catwalks.

HISTORY

Fashion design was originally made popular as a branch of study in applied art in major art schools. It basically, then, focused on design of clothing by employing different creative patterns to achieve an aesthetic finish. However, the first man who took dressmaking to commercially viable stage was Charles Frederick Worth, who died in the year 1895.




Finally, in the mid-nineteen century Worth's great-grandson closed up his shop, but the big oak seed he planted in Paris continue its upward growth. Ever since, the world of fashion design has gone through so many changes, evolving into higher realms from one generation to another until it reached its present level, today.



Now, there are great fashion designers known continentally and internationally.We now have Tommy Hilfiger, Dior, Thierry Hermès, Tommy Bahama, Guccio Gucci, Ecko, Stefano Gabbana, Ralph Lauren, Polo, Cole Hann, Andrew Marc and so many heavyweights designers.These later generations developed a system whereby artists were paid to brainstorm and sketch or paint unique designs for garments, which were basically presented to potential buyers before turning the artist impression into original garment. This idea gave rise to the modern fashion design industry whose main products is now known the world over as Designer wear.
