Bloggy Windows

fashion_blog_definition

Ah yes. finally! Bridging the gap between fashion destination stores and pertinent fashion blogs, Holt Renfrew, always creative and innovative with their window displays, are once again proving their worthiness. Commencing with a “Fashion Blog” definition displayed on an introductory window we see that each progressive window is designated a fashion blog and corresponding visual theme. It is well executed and it’s fantastic to see large fashion venues such as Holt Renfrew with an appreciation of the influence of blogging in a fashion context. Not only have they used their store as a venue to show that they’ve got their fingers on the fashion pulse but there is also the opportunity to promote these new online pioneers of fashion. This is a great cross promotion idea and obviously advantageous for all parties.

This blog is one of my favourites. They shows a lot of street style pics of men’s / women’s fashion and runway. They focus mostly on very high-end and innovative fashion, always visually inspiring.

Great blog! It’s focus is on fashion and culture and formatted with images and brief captions which means it’s very to the point but still engaging. While the inspiration behind this blog is about shoes it’s definitely not only about that. There are images of fashion that follows with the shoes, street pics, and the culture that surrounds it all.

While very much involved in fashion, shows and the scenes in which they exists. The blog has a very directed cultural, inspirational approach surrounding fashion, music, and day/night life.

I’m excited to see this blog as one of the windows as it has been a favourite in my blogroll for some time now. While it shares both men’s and women’s fashion, it focuses mostly on men’s which is great because there are so few that do. It showcases street and runway fashion…always fun to go through the images and gather inspiration.

Wow, this blog’s got it all.  Runway and street fashions, events and parties, arts and culture, and more more more. There is lots to look at on this site and definitely interesting to see the wide spectrum of content.

This blog focuses on women’s fashion trends and showcases mostly street styles, runway, along with illustrations which are more often than not, overlooked…but oh so important to design.
