Too much choice is always a good thing when it comes to fashion.
Which is why we can't wait to check out the two new bigwig labels from London and Rome that will be brought into Singapore exclusively by retailer Robinsons at the end of the month.
Lipsy, a young British label which first opened in central London in 2008, it became a fast favourite as a high street label for young women.
The label also has considerable star quotient, and can count among its celebrity fans, It girls from Lily Allen, Taylor Swift, to their latest brand ambassador, Pixie Lott.
Think party dresses jazzed up with a bright dash of colour, or easy-to-wear numbers with flattering, streamlined silhouettes. Offering an outfit for every occasion, Lipsy has premium, denim, logowear, lingerie and accessories lines in addition to their Lipsy London mainline. Women will also love the finishing touches on the clothes-ribbons, foiling and silks add to the girly, romantic feel.
Look for feminine, girly designs and fun, trendy styles.
For the more sophisticated crowd, there is List.
Offering the latest styles to come off the catwalks of Milan, List is widely regarded as the stalwart of Italian fashion.
Started in 1991, its Prêt-a-Porter collection comprises stylish work options and casual off-duty looks. Business suits are strong yet feminine and summer dresses are flirty and fluid. In its Cruise collection, sophisticated evening wear provide a flattering fit for a glamourous night out. Cuts and styles differ between these two lines, and richer and more classic fabrics and decorative elements are used for the Cruise collection.
If your fashion sense tends to the chic, you will appreciate the label's balance of elegance and glamour with curves and geometry.
Prices for Lipsy start from S$129 and and List starts from $S89. Both will be available in stores at the end of October 2010.
Lipsy
From a young British fashion brand that opened its first store in central London in 2008, Lipsy has soon become the fast favourite high street label for young women. Loved by IT girls like Lily Allen, Taylor Swift and Paris Hilton, the brand is a creative blend of fun and flirty, girly and romantic. Think party dresses jazzed up with a bright dash of colour, or easy-to-wear numbers with flattering, streamlined silhouettes. Offering an outfit for every occasion, Lipsy has premium, denim, logowear, lingerie and accessories lines in addition to their Lipsy London mainline. Women will also love the finishing touches on the clothes-ribbons, foiling and silks add to the girly, romantic feel.
List
Born in 1991, List is all about the Italian sense of fashion, beauty and glamour. Its Prêt-a-Porter collection comprises stylish work options and casual off-duty looks: business suits are strong yet feminine and summer dresses are flirty and fluid. In its Cruise collection, sophisticated evening wear provide a flattering fit for a glamourous night out. Cuts and styles differ between these two lines, and richer and more classic fabrics and decorative elements are used for the Cruise collection. Still, the clothes are extremely versatile-paired with a different set of accessories, a Cruise outfit would not look out of place at an informal afternoon.
