It's the Bomb


Now that's what I call fashion's Nuclear Weapon. TO.DIE.FOR. The much coveted Christopher Kane's Nuclear T-shirts for women is now available at Boutique 4. Men's are coming soon.

Nuclear bombs cause nothing except death, destruction, and devastation.

The designer, apparently, has not been in any war nor has he met any war survivors.

This is the worst collection I have ever seen.

Interesting.

T-shirts that glorify the massacre of hundreds of thousands in a mere instant with no traces of their existence not to mention the aftermath with mutated child births with the man who pulled the trigger himself attempting suicide years later.

Fashion takes precedence over morals it would seem.

very interesting points you have raised here which did not cross my mind. Especially that I described it as "to die for" makes it even creepily ironic. I totally agree with you on that. That's not the kind of message you'd like to send out. That said, I do admit that I like the color combo effect on the t-shirt..

This is the most offensive T-shirt I have ever seen. I am from the country that is the only victim of nuclear bombs so far and I wish it will stay that way.

I don't see their visual appeal, they look like cheap, flimsy t-shirts made in some sweatshop that sell in places like hot topic or sam goody's for $40 and with the picture peeling away after repeated washes overtime.

One more thing that interested me is that I recently discovered that the bikini itself was named after a nuclear bomb or to be more specific the location of a nuclear bomb test.

Why is everyone taking offense to the t-shirts??

I don't believe Christopher Kane meant any harm or insult!

From an artistic point of view, the graphic is beautiful.. as far as colors and design!

And thats all it is... a graphic, an image, pure aesthetic...

Although I do not think kane meant any harm and I actually do like the color combinations, I think this is a tad tasteless. Sometimes the 'appreciate it for its aesthetics' argument just doesn't cut it

Altuzarra or Aquazzura?

That is the question. It took me a whole season to finally tell these two brands apart, and this season, there's no mistake, each brand is now engraved in my fashion database like a personalized Tiffany's pen. And this Resort 2015 season, I'm head over heels with their flats, on display now at AlOthman Boutique . Altuzarra's version comes in a tonal-gray water snake and are decorated with beige shells, red beads and silver sequins. Aquazzura's lace-up sandals come in a beautiful shade of apple green, and will work with white or bright colored casual summer outfit.  After much thought and sole-searching, I have decided to go for the  Altuzarra   sandals. They're safely stored in my closet, waiting for the dust and the cold to go away.  Which pair would you go for?

Magical Mode

As anyone who regularly reads Confashions may know, there are some designers I’ve been obsessed with for quite some time: one is the genius Erdem , the other is Nicholas Kirkwood , and Pierre Hardy . And because their designs are somehow easily accessible online and offline, I had the pleasure of featuring some of their creations and showing them the love they deserve. That said, there is one designer I’ve been particularly smitten with for quite some time. He has always been on the top of my favorite designers list ever since I was introduced to his designs by my fabulous fellow fashionisto Adnan Z Manjal   a couple of years back : Saudi designer Mohammed Ashi . I always wished I featured him more. I couldn’t because his pieces are very exclusive and as far as I know not stocked anywhere here. This clearly isn't just another post on my obvious love for Mohammed Ashi’s designs or the quality of his clothes as I have done that previously. Ashi simply deserves his very own epic p...

To New Beginnings...

"What did this Corona crisis teach you?" my friend asked. My first thought was thing crisis has opened my eyes on the simple pleasures of life. My priorities have changed. And I feel every day is a new beginning. First of all, it made me realize how much I miss blogging. How simple and mentally satisfying it was to jolt down my thoughts on a field that I was very passionate about. I have to admit that I'm not as passionate now. Don't get me wrong, I still like fashion, but it's now on the bottom of my priorities list. I would like to blog about other things too that I feel much related to. I recently discovered that I do enjoy cooking. For the longest time, cooking to me was a nightmare.  This corona crisis has taught us that we can look forward to a new day with new possibilities to contribute or to help another, or to simply approach things differently, and most importantly to make the most of each day we have and share that goodness with others.
