Rohmir AW16 Collection By Designer Olga Roh

22,Mar 2016

Rohmir AW16 Collection

Rohmir’s Vienne Imperiale collection was said to be a celebration of the opera glamour of the eternal imperial style of the beautiful city. Rohmir are known for their collections being a plethora of feminine, eloquent dresses and tailored suits. Vienne Imperiale, lived up to its upper class name with an opulent line up that made expert use of texture and varied fabrics. Which is no surprise, considering that founder and designer Olga Roh hails from Russian nobility. Both a former model and academic, with a PhD from the University of Bern, she has brains as well as beauty, combining a love of glamour with an acute business sense.

Italian influences are a key and running concept throughout this collection. The colour palette used this season, was as regal as the silhouettes, emerald greens, ruby reds, black and gold. By using the softest faux fur, lace and velvet detailed with statement brooches and bold necklaces. Dresses appeared in elegant oxblood and bottle green but it was shades of black with regal gold detail that dominated. Lace trousers matched with sheer and gold tipped velvet capes delivered the drama, European style.

The models hair was plaited then pinned into a traditional style, embellished with pearls, then intricately twisted into a regal up-do, again highlighting the almost princess-esque nature of the collection and the plait adorned their heads almost like a tiara, while the make-up was kept rather neutral, with bold brows with a pink stained lip and dark, smoky eyes and false lashes. The epitome of Italian glamour.

Backstage ahead of the show, the buzz was euphoric, there’s so much stigma with models looking moody and being underweight, but these models were smiling, laughing and joking, it was a delightful atmosphere to be a part of, and they all looked truly radiant and of a healthy weight.

Olga herself was beaming and so full of energy and very down to earth, even seemingly looking very relaxed. The catwalk was flawless and the pieces dripped elegance and sophistication. The live opera performance added an air of emotive grace to the show, and Olga’s daughter closed the show alongside the Opera, which received a well-deserved standing ovation for the collection and the performance alike.

The show entitled ‘Vienne Imperiale’ boasted ideas of grandeur from the outset and it was safe to say, that the show did not disappoint. The slow and sultry affair was as grand and as exquisite as promised from the title. Models slowly glided down the catwalk, rather than walk, to the soothing rhythm of the orchestral music and live opera singer. This is Vienna no compromises made.

SAG Awards 2015 Red Carpet

28,Jan 2015
SAG Awards 2015
The Screen Actors Guild awards is another dazzling affair and LA-based red carpet event which we aim to cover annually. Sunday's event had a healthy turnout.
We loved Emmy Rossum's glittering choice, a silver Giorgio Armani strapless top and skirt with an overlay made of crinoline lace and Swarovski crystals, the ensemble shimmered in a subtle but enchanted way. She was adorned with a luxurious diamond necklace (with a luxurious smile to match). This was a superb presentation. Emmy looked regal and svelte.

This singer and song writer is a relative, by marriage of designer Vera Wang (Wang is married to Emmy's cousin). Emmy (short for Emmanuelle) is a youth aids ambassador, a strong supporter of the animal society and often campaigns to help raise breast cancer awareness. Emmy is dating Sam Esmail, director and writer of Comet. Emmy suffers from Celiac disease (highly prevalent in Jewish communities) so always politely refuses gluten infested cupcakes. She recently won the best actress in a comedy series award (Satellite awards) for her role in Shameless.
 
Sophia Bush at the 2015 SAG Awards
Our favourite choice on the night however, was Sophia Bush's Vivienne Westwood designed gown. We are so proud of our British designer. Sophia showed off her feminine and petite frame with this gown which comprised of a shaped and draped bodice, lots of gathering and a raunchy thigh-high slit , the bold orange apricot colour is a tricky colour to pull off, Sophia was adorned with Irene Neuwrith jewelry, she wore Stuart Weitzman shoes and held an Eddie Parker clutch bag. She also sported a wavy, unstructured bob which is making a comeback (see Jourdan Dunne's). 
 
Sophia is a woman of many talents who uses her time constructively. She is not only an actress and a director but an avid volleyball player and a Journalist major. Bush has been involved in political campaigns and is a strong supporter of Obama, she tours colleges in the US to encourage young people to get involved in politics she also runs half marathons despite having asthma and knee injuries from volleyball. She was involved in the Global poverty project in 2013.
