Shop Moda Operandi's Met Ball Capsule Collections

Moda Operandi’s exclusive punk collections for this year’s Met Ball and Costume Institute Exhibition. As you may already know, Moda Operandi is sponsoring the much-awaited Met Ball this year and many of the fashion world’s leading designers, Vivienne Westwood, Moschino, Givenchy, Charlotte Olympia, and Rodarte just to name a few, have designed punk-inspired collections to sell exclusively on Moda Operandi, in celebration of this years Costume Institute Exhibition, titled PUNK: CHAOS TO COUTURE

The collection also includes one-of-a-kind customized clothing, plus rare vintage fashion and art objects that pay homage to punk, ranging from $100 to $13,000. I'd have to say that Givenchy's leather and lace long cape gets my vote for the best piece of the collection. I also loved Jennifer Behr's camellia beehive headband with floral veil.
In case you're planning to take a trip to New York, the PUNK: CHAOS TO COUTURE exhibition will be on view at The Metropolitan Museum of Art from May 9 – August 14, and it will focus on high fashion’s appropriation of punk’s avant-garde aesthetic. 

Moda Operandi’s will also hold a Spotlight event in celebration of this year’s Costume Institute Benefit. The program, beginning May 7, will enable women to purchase select looks designed by Anthony Vacarello, Delpozo, Rodarte, and Wes Gordon, among others, and worn by celebrities to the event. The bold faced names wearing the designer gowns will be revealed when they walk the red carpet during arrivals.

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in  Miu Miu   Boutiques throughout our region.

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...

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?
