Louis Vuitton Cruise '19
It's official: fashion has reached peak #fitspiration, culminating at the Victoria's Secret show last November. The popularity of the thigh gap and Toblerone Tunnel--the ones that Bella, Gigi, and Kendall are blessed with--have resulted in the onslaught of gimmicky teatoxes, controversial waist trainers, and overhyped juice cleanses, while Instagram feeds are bombarded with the hashtag #BodyGoals. But in today's age of body diversity and empowerment, how is Victoria's Secret's million-dollar Fantasy Bra and the hyper-sexy image of the lingerie brand relevant to the average woman at large?
Cultish freedom at Louis Vuitton Cruise ’19
Designers have kept it woke this Cruise ’10 through elongated silhouettes, and with a strong focus on modesty. At Balmain, uber-miniskirts were worn with thigh-high boots so far up, they could be mistaken for leggings. Italian goliath Max Mara translated this nouveau liberation through breezy floor-gazing kaftans, which Dior’s answer lied in gussied-up midi skirts worn with crisp shirts. And as a home run, Donatella Versace swapped out her glamorous notes for double-denim suiting and oversized parkas. Next season for Spring/Summer ’19, expect hemlines to drop against the rising temperatures, while full coverage ensues at Loewe, Valentino, and Gucci.
