Neon Fashion Trend

Neon colors in fashion seemed to be very popular this year.  Celebrities were spotted wearing cute, form fitting dresses in bright neon and fluorescent colors.  This neon trend will be carried into the Fall.  I'm definitely a lover of bright colors and neon takes me back to the 80's which was the era that I grew up in as a child (I'm telling my age, lol).  Check out the celebs that were spotted this year in neon fashion:

Singer Mya wore this cute, colorful LV Twenty Three dress to her 32nd birthday celebration last month. The dress, called 'Visibly Jess' can be found on LV Twenty Three's website here

British singer Leona Lewis wore this hot 2-piece, neon bright number to an event.  She paired it with nude pumps.  You can never go wrong with nude shoes. They go with virtually anything.  The dress is one of many that the singer designed herself.  She plans to start her own ethical clothing line.

Former 3LW member, Adrienne Bailon recently wore this cute Dominique Auxilly neon dress to her 28th birthday party at Vanity Nightclub in Vegas

Video Director Vashtie Kola also wore the Dominique Auxilly "Cali Girl" dress last April to her birthday celebration in New York City at Santos

For all you shoe lovers, some shoe designers have released some uber cute neon shoes in their Fall collections:

Giuseppe Zanotti Neon Colorblock Platform d'Orsay Pump ($750)

B Brian Atwood Suede Colorblock Pump ($350)

Giuseppe Zanotti Neon Colorblock Platform Sandal ($695)

Giuseppi Zanotti Patent Colorblock Pump ($695)

All of these shoes can be found at here at  Neiman Marcus.  Are you feeling the Neon fashion trend?

Kanye West Reveals Womens Wear Line at Paris Fashion Week

Kanye West introduced his first clothing line, DW by Kanye West, at Paris Fashion Week.  DW by Kanye West is a womens wear collection dedicated to his mother, the late Donda West.  The Ready to Wear Spring/Summer 2012 fashion show took place at the Lycee Henri IV in Paris, France on October 1, 2011.  Kanye West has been spotted in the front row of many runway shows over the years, and he was apparently taking notes and gaining inspiration for his upcoming clothing line.

The audience consisted of several big names in fashion such as Alexander Wang, Sylvia Fendi, Anna Wintour, Lindsay Lohan, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, and Ciara just to name a few.  Kanye mainly used black, cream, and white palettes with  plunging necklines, tasteful cut-outs, high leg slits, fur collars, and a few asymmetrical hems.

Here are several of the looks from the DW by Kanye West collection. *photo credit

Here are some of my favorite looks from the collection:

I think out of all the looks, this cut-out dress (or it may be a top and a skirt) is one of my favorites.  Definitely something I would wear in a heartbeat.

Kanye used Jourdan Dunn as one of his runway models

Chanel Iman (right) also model some of the runway looks

Two other looks that Chanel Iman and Jourdan Dunn modeled down the runway

He added a little color to some of the pieces.

All of the shoes worn by the models in the show were specially designed by Giuseppi Zanotti

Mr. West kept his attire simple sporting a white tee and jeans.

I personally loved most of the looks from the collection.  The price point hasn't been revealed yet, but hopefully it will be affordable because I definitely saw a few pieces that I would rock.  Ladies, what do you think of DW by Kanye West? Is it something you would wear?
