» Black and white aside, red is the colour that yields the largest number of symbolic interpretations, stereotypes and discussions, regardless of cultures.

This season, red becomes the colour of choice for designers to make a runway statement.

» The way things worked between fashion and automobile industry usually went like a relationship between a spoiled and pampered, rebel-wannabe daughter and her millionaire father. The fussy debutante gets all the financial support she wants from the father, but she never complies to any order aside of lending him her arm and pretty face from time to time at some high-profile social functions.

Peachy nude pout
Muse, Samila Wenin, Published on 21/01/2012
» It's true that Angelina Jolie's pillar box-coloured pout that just matched the fold on her cream satin Atelier Versace gown and her clutch at the Golden Globes could make any girl want to trash all other lip colours in their make-up bag. With the best lips in Hollywood, Miss Jolie surely could intimidate even the "red" colour on the carpet once she chooses to paint her pout in scarlet. Sadly, those without the advantage of full lips may not be bought by the boldness of the colour. And no, red isn't the only shade that could make your lips alluring. Red gives us the tantalising hot sensuality, but at times, you just can't really resist the ice queen glamour of the barely there make-up look.

Bangkok's best bits
Muse, Samila Wenin, Published on 04/02/2012
» Fashion's not so much unpredictable for those in the business. When the economy is good and all is bright and shiny, you have sparkling exuberance and glittering whimsicality. However, when things are not so right - money is tight and politics is tense - you'd have a restrained classicism in autumn/winter and well, quite a fantastical escapism in the spring/summer, the latter is also the case of the press presentation of the summer collection by the local design collective Bangkok Fashion Society.

Pretty little things
Life, Samila Wenin, Published on 23/02/2012
» It has been for some few years that fashion dwelled in the land of restrained sophistication and uber-feminine glamour _ either the immaculate tailoring and ultra-clean lines or the fetishistic allure.
