Classic designer - Jean-Charles de Castelbajac

Castelbajac




It's always interesting to watch the different designers slowly bring out their Fall/ Winter pieces around this time of year. While you may have a general idea of what the "hot" thing is going to be, there are always a couple of surprises here and there when it comes to what they are going to be offering you. 
When it comes to unique pieces, it seems as if some of the brightest designers are changing it up once again. For example, Jean Charles de Castelbajac looks as if he is going a darker route with his Fall fashion, which is a bit of a surprise in its own right.

I have seen the collection at www.elilhaam.com

Leitmotiv

Are you looking for online luxury Italian fashion pieces? You can find many pieces from Leitmotiv at Elilhaam. Leitmotiv started the company when Fabio Sasso& Juan Caro set out to use their artistic talents and sense of print style to create eclectic and Baroque styles that instantly gained the duo success.

In 2008, they won the Fashion Incubator prize with their Life collection along with butterflies, which could be seen on the catwalk in Tokyo and Milan. Art meets fashion sums up every design. You'll find pieces in lovely materials suck as Duchess Silk. All of their items are Made in Italy, which simply adds to the luxuriousness of each item.

Elilhaam sells luxury fashion so it makes sense you'll see Leitmotiv pieces sold on the site. The website went live in 2010 and the store sells high-end brands from both familiar designers and up and coming designers. It's one of the most convenient ways to shop for luxury clothing and accessories in the privacy of your own home and it is shipped directly to you.

Some of the pieces of Leitmotiv at Elilhaam you find include:

  • Cat Cely Sweater. This has long sleeves that has the ribbed cuffs making it easy to pull the sleeves up for an ultra casual and chic look. The hemline of the sweater is just below the hips. The pattern is that of a cat motif that appears on both the front and back. It is 75 percent wool to keep you warm.
  • The Equilibrista Tee has the ability to do what most tee-shirts can't - the Tee can be worn dressy or casual. It works both ways! The design is a white color with a horse and a carriage painting print. You can make it truly glamorous with one of the Leitmotiv handbags. The material is made from 5 percent spandex and 99 percent viscose.

Elilhaam.com also has pieces from Leitmotiv made exclusively for the store. If you want to take a look at a super baroque style check out the black Altare Velvet Long Dress. It has the V neckline, short sleeves, back zipper, pleaded skirt, and a print / painting all the way around the tummy / hips and again the same print is around the bottom of the dress.
