Happy Birthday Diana!

KNOCKERS! Sunday, March 26, 2017 Original Diva Diana Ross, celebrated her 73rd birthday! Let’s commemorate her special day with a fashion retrospect of Mahogany, a Berry Gordy film released in 1975, starring Diana Ross and Billy Dee Williams. Mahogany is a cult classic rags to riches campy 70’s fairy tale of a young small town aspiring fashion designer to World’s Top Model, and all the spectacular fashion in between. Mahogany also spawned the hit song “Do You Know Where You Going To” and countless Diana Ross style imitators.

2017 Top Fashion Week Trend: Metallic Silver!

KNOCKERS!  Karl Lagerfeld’s Fall 2017 Chanel Show in Paris beautifully illustrated one of the best use of metallic silver in a collection during this year’s Fashion Month. PLUS, Lagerfeld had a rocket launch right in the middle of his runway. Amazing! The chic looks harkened back to a mixture of 1960s Jane Fonda’s Barbarella, a fashionable futuristic Judy Jetson with a touch of Emma Peel’s The Avengers spy chic, and of course, the timeless Chanel tweeds – all with touches ( a little bit and a lot) of metallic silver running throughout the collection.
