The LAST LOOK from a fashion runway show dictates the designer’s aesthetic and overall direction for the season. During the Reykjavik Fashion Festival, a forum created to nurture and celebrate the Icelandic fashion industry, seven juried designers showcased their collections amongst a sea of editors, buyers, and fashionistas.

Most nations build a fashion week to be accepted into a global spectrum of heels, makeup and models; yet RFF has taken a more innocent and raw approach to their platform. They would have to, considering their country’s landscape and whimsical weather patterns. A common thread shared by all of the brands featured was not only their ancestry, but their passion to participate and reveal the tenderness of the opportunity itself. There was a heartfelt excitement backstage that not even Paris or New York Fashion Weeks could match. These organizations are already tried and true with nothing to prove but diligence. The energy is not new and authentic; it is jaded and tense. Iceland’s backstage was like starting over again, complete with newbie dressers and fledgling models, yet there was an authenticity that with the help of producers from Heidelberg’s Atelier Kontrast (http://www.atelierkontrast.com/), made for a memorable and dignified event. When we become absorbed by the Who, What, and Wears (pun intended), let’s not forget about Why?

The following posts define each designers’ LAST LOOK from each collection at RFF. The runway ranged from feminine and delicate to unisex goth styles. The briefs to follow are straight from each brand/designer’s own unique ethos. It would not seem quite fair to reinterpret their own intentions in my words.-JulesKim.

H&M are constantly striving to balance their contemporary and exciting designs alongside ethical responsibilites. Their latest Conscious Collection, which will be released this Spring, sees a reflection of the season in the beautiful floral textile designs. Vanessa Paradis is the face of the worldwide campaign, but for a special treat, here at Highsnobette we teamed up with photographer Laura Palm to produce a more personal lookbook, ahead of the collections release.
Featuring Cécile Weber and Jackie Hide, the styling plays up the youthful edge of the collection,

including floaty dresses, cropped bomber jackets, khaki pants, shorts and perforated tea dresses. The collection will hit H&M stores on March 25.
In association with H&M, Highsnobette are offering 10 of our readers the opportunity to win themselves an exclusive pouch bag design, not available to the general public. In order to be in with a chance of winning, leave a comment in the section below. Good luck!

There are many things one can say about Beyonce Knowles. From her undeniable vocals, dance prouesse and southern belle charm, she’s been able to sustain an untouchable star status where many came close on various levels but have not yet surpassed her. And then comes this editorial shot by Terry Richardson  that has  men and women all over twitter saying things like @RonnieFieg :

“That Beyonce cover got me sweating.”

We’ve posted the Kate Moss Vanity Fair cover for December 2012, but the editorial shots are even better.
