On 7th April 2011 I attended Mercedes Benz- STYLO Fashion Show themed Aladdin's Harem Night, showcasing Designer of The Year 2009 which includes Khoon Hooi, Edric Ong & Melinda Looi. Let's start off with the collection from Melinda Looi.
The name of this couture collection is Flight of Peace, kickstarted with a small girl holding a dove and releasing it at the end of the runway. I personally feel the whole collection is very ethereal and has a certain edgy softness to it. I simply had to post the whole collection coz not doing so would be a crime!
These looks are posted in no particular order;
Look No. 1
Loving the power shoulder effect, certainly Balmain & the 80's era has an effect on most of us who are in love with fashion. And loving the drapes and the detailing on the back, simply j'adore!
Look No. 2
Look No. 3
Look No. 4
The headgear is pretty amazing! Wouldn't mind wearing one of that to a themed party.
Look No. 5
Look No. 7
The criss-cut style of the bottom part reminds me of Viktor & Rolf ever so memorable collection. Love this!
Look No. 8
Look No. 9
Favorite piece! Ahh someone who knows me so well would know that I live in harem pants, and a lace one would be perfect in my wardrobe! Alas I can only dream to own one in a designer label. I know that a lot of people are partial about harem pants, but what can I say - nothing you say can change my mind. Heck I even attended The Aladdin's Harem Night even though none of my friends were attending, hence bringing Hana Tajima as my plus 1 to the event. Which I will let you know more in my future post. Back to this look, loving the precision cut for the top, wings and white. More or less of an angel inspired look I say. Also reminds me of the latest collection of Miu Miu :)

I have never seen a collection so beautiful up close and this just made me want to have my wedding and go crazy and wear one of her couture pieces. One can always dream no?
