 Cutting
edge designer Sadaf Malaterre reflects the style sensibility of
Cruela DeVille (played to perfection by Glenn Close in 101 Dalmatians)
in this rock-punk get up. The white wisp of hair works perfectly
with the avant garde tights and red heels and clutch. And of course,
painting the lips and nails a bright red always works with all black.
Let us count the ways in which black can be appreciated: well, there
just arenÕt enough. ItÕs the colour Coco Chanel developed
her iconic little dress in. ItÕs the colour wedding gowns
were revolutionized with in the west. Black is worn to mourn, black
is worn to party. While red is considered to be the colour of revolution,
black is what teenage kids love to paint their nails just to tick
their parents off. Black, especially Gothic black, is never going
out of style; you just need to wear it right. And while New Moon
and the era of vampire love is celebrated all over the world, we
herald black as the colour that stirs magic into fashion!

down or up.
Sonya Battla created an absolutely marvelously distressed collection
for fashion week and in this case, her all black outfit works perfectly
well with an ecru karandi cape and iron metal accessories. Definitely
a trend to take up!
