Kish - The Epitome of Men's High Fashion

Every Fashion Question Any Man Ever Had Has Been Answered By One Store - Kish

By D. Eze.

Fashion is usually a woman’s game. All the fashions show usually have women strutting their stuff down the runways of Milan, New York and Paris. Sure there are a few men’s collections, but for the most part it is usually women who get the most of the attention.

The fashion trends that come out of these fashions shows usually revolve around women and focus on what colours women should wear and what styles are the most fashionable this season.

Men are always the proverbial bridesmaids in this situation. Without the resources available to women, what can a man do if he wants to look good?

The truth is all men want to look good too, but they just don’t know how. They have no options on style, no information on trends and no opportunities to improve their looks.

Enter Kish Wear.  This men’s fashion atelier solves men’s problems regarding style, affordability and quality.

With products that range from heavy winter coats to crisp white dress shirts, Kish provides every man with every possible need.  The clothing also has the added benefit of being extremely fashionable as if they stepped of those runways I referred to earlier.

When I shop for pieces I always look for two things: how much will it cost me and does it look so good that I just can’t say no.  I am happy to say that Kish takes care of both of my concerns pretty well.  Below, I elaborate on why the price point and the style at Kish are just what you need to take the next step toward a more fashionable you.

Price Points

I decided to put together my own outfit just to see how much it would set me back.  Upon first looking at the website, I have to admit the style and quality had me a bit  worried that I might have to pay a hefty price for my desire to step my style game, but quickly learned that my worries were for not.

I put together a pretty amazing ensemble including Burgundy Incotex Slim-Fit Trousers made mostly of cotton and Elastane that were made in Albania, a nice Plain White Spread Collar Shirt that is crisp and clean made of cotton and polyester, and a pretty wonderful looking Knitted Italian Zipper Turtleneck Sweater made of polyester, viscose and alpaca for less than $200.00 dollars.  At other stores I could be paying twice that for the same amount of quality and style.

This is a great three-piece outfit that I could pair up with things I already own to expand my wardrobe choices exponentially and I gain the ability to make my tired old clothing look extra special given the quality of the pieces.

Style

I have mentioned before that these cloths look like they came directly off the runway and I was not lying.  The range of colours, patterns, cuts and fits all combine to make even the most unstylish schlub into model material.

Kish releases men from their black, navy blue, grey, and brown/tan prisons and lets them revel in the freedom of bold, interesting colours.  Turquoise and burgundy are among some of the colours you can look forward to wearing with this atelier along with the mainstays listed above.  You can mix and match with a broader range of hews and experiment with something you may not have considered wearing before.

The patterns are much more interesting too.  You no longer have to choose between tartan and pinstrip, now you can be guided by whatever inspires you.  One interesting patterned piece is a lovely blue and white water drop skirt that is definitely one of a kind.

Slim fit is unquestionably in and very much represented by Kish in a broad range of slim fit styles.  Their European cut trousers and blazers are very trendy and will absolutely turn heads.

Asymmetry, dynamic cuts and clean lines are mainstays with this fashion house and are most prominent in their sweaters and jackets.  Some prime examples are the Charcoal Grey Peacoat and the Knitted Italian Wool-Blend Brown Cardigan.  If you want to look like you are forward thinking in terms of style give these wonderfully tailored pieces a try.  One thing is for sure; your admirers will not believe the price.

There is no need to wonder what can I do to improve my style, Kish answers all of your questions with simple, clean, dynamic clothing.  Pick and choose which pieces you think will make you look your best and walk with pride with your chic self.

So look no longer men, you have finally found your salvation.  Be stylish, be bold, be daring and check out Kish.  You sense of style will thank you for it.

Paco Rabanne's Metal Dresses

Below are some examples of Paco Rabanne's Metal Dresses.

Yes, they are made from thin strips of metal. Overall they are quite heavy - like wearing armour - but they are also amazing dresses and very rare.

Hottest Prom Dresses for Spring

Hottest prom dresses this spring

When looking for the hottest dress to wear to spring proms, formals, or other events, it might be wise to see what some of the online merchants are displaying. Many of the specialty prom and formal sites are offering some high-end, brand name dresses that are not only flattering and affordable, but that are unique of the styles found in some local dress retail venues.

It is also possible to order a dress that will be something cherished and worn far beyond prom; a quality gown that is tastefully designed will not go out of style, and may serve as the perfect ensemble for an upcoming occasion. With this in mind, seeking out designer dresses from reputable online sellers is an investment that may get much use during its lifetime.

Among the hottest gowns this season are the "cut-away" styles that showcase the wearers best assets. The geometrical cut-outs on the facade give a real modern, sleek look to the wearer. These dresses are floor-length and offered in a range of colors to suit the buyer.

Another hot dress is the Flirt by Maggie Sottero collection. With various lengths and straps available, this is a dress that will flatter any wearer. Lace and beading are options in some of the styles and many of the ultra-contemporary styles actually mimic old vintage trends; check out the Sweetheart sheer and lace or the Sweetheart Top Formal from the Flirt line. These gowns are definitely channeling some vintage flair! The draping at the waist and the tight bodice of many other styles will provide a pleasing silhouette that any girl will simply dazzle in!

The prices for these exquisite designs will vary, but most shoppers will agree that they are priced comparably to some far less inspired gowns found off-the-rack in department stores across the region. Thinking outside of the box and looking for dresses with some versatility that could be worn again at future events, might make the investment a bit more viable and practical for some consumers. All in all, a girl has few nights as special as prom so even if the dress is tucked away afterward, it is still money well spent.

Choosing the Perfect Wedding Dress

Every girl dreams of how she will look on her wedding day, which is why choosing a wedding dress is one of the most important aspects of every wedding. The dress will appear in all wedding pictures, is the one all of the bride’s friends and family will see, and must be an expression of who she is. In addition, it is important to choose a dress that fits the bride’s body style and complexion to compliment her look. However, there are several common mistakes that bride’s make when they go shopping for the dress for the big day. By avoiding these errors, wedding dress shopping will be less stressful and it is more likely the bride will find that perfect dress.

Bringing Too Many People

Even though this is the most important dress a woman will wear, bringing ten people often becomes counterproductive, as each of those ten people will have an opinion and those opinions will rarely be the same. Most bridal gown consultants recommend no more than one or two people when the bride first sets out to find the perfect dress. Most brides bring a mother or sister, while some include the future mother-in-law in the process. The bride needs those with her who will be honest even when everyone else in the store loves the dress and the bride does not.

Shopping Too Far In Advance

Because many couples are opting for longer engagements, brides sometimes begin shopping for gowns too far in advance. It is important to have all the other wedding details determined, such as venue and bridesmaid gowns, before choosing a wedding dress. An embellished gown with a huge train may be beautiful in a large church, but will not be suitable for a beach wedding. The color of bridesmaid dresses may also determine whether the bride chooses white or off-white, as dresses come in many different shades of white. However, wedding dress consultants caution brides not to procrastinate in their dress shopping, as dresses take anywhere from five to eight months, and often need alterations once they arrive.

Demanding a Different Size

Wedding gowns, like most formal wear, are sized differently than other types of women’s clothing, and often run one or two sizes smaller. This means that a wedding dress for a woman who wears a size five normally, may need to purchase a nine, or even an eleven. Brides often claim that they plan to lose weight before the wedding, but that rarely happens. Bridal consultants say to purchase a dress in the size that fits when the dress is ordered, as it is easy to take in a dress that is too big closer to the wedding, but much more difficult to let one out. If a bride gains weight between the time the dress is ordered and its arrival, there are alteration options available, so there is no need to panic.

A girl’s wedding day is one of the most important days of her life, whether they plan a large, lavish wedding with all the trimmings, or they choose a small, garden wedding in someone’s backyard. Therefore, by avoiding these common mistakes, wedding dress shopping can be less stressful and the bride is more likely to discover that perfect dress.

Edward de Gale shows How to Dress for Success

If you don't know who Edward de Gale is let me explain.

He's a charity worker in Toronto.

He's the guy who got things going back in the late 1990s and early 2000s and brought about energy subsidies for low income families and people and helped prevent many Canadians from becoming homeless.

He even met Prime Minister Kim Campbell, Russian President Mikhail Gorbachev and has a thank you letter from Queen Elizabeth II for all his fine charity work.

And how did he manage to do all this?

It wasn't that hard.

He wrote lots of letters to politicians in Toronto, Ontario, and various parts of Canada and the USA.

He gave a lot of speeches and explained things eloquently in a way that people could understand them.

In other words Edward de Gale got things done.

BUT DO YOU THINK FOR ONE SECOND THAT PEOPLE WOULD HAVE TAKEN HIM SERIOUSLY IF HE HAD DRESSED LIKE A SLOB?

Probably not.

No, lets face it when you want to be taken seriously you have to dress for success. That means wearing the following...

A suit and a tie.
Well polished shoes.
A trench coat or suit jacket.

Looking at the photos shown here of Edward de Gale in action, you can see what I mean.

Kim Campbell might have been able to get away with wearing a Toronto sports jacket - she was the prime minister after all, but just because she dresses like that sometimes when meeting people doesn't mean the rest of us should dress like that.

The point I am making here is that suit makes the man (or the woman). Looking professional DOES matter.

Which means that even someone who is not famous - is relatively unimportant - can rise to become an important person by presenting themselves as someone to be reckoned with.

And it doesn't hurt that Edward de Gale studied law and then used his knowledge of the law to help people. A shining example of what brains, good fashion sense and an eloquent tongue can accomplish.

Little Black Lace Dress

FASHION - You don't want a lump of coal for Christmas, but a little black lace dress and the accessories to match might be on your list this year. Its sort of an old-fashioned Victorian Christmas idea, but don't forget black lace suffers from a Madonna/whore complex in fashion.

When done in white and in a voluminous form for wedding dresses, lace is considered innocent and pure. In black and in the boudoir – lace is sexy, racy and risque. With the colour of flesh underneath there is also underlying simmering sexuality.

Miuccia Prada, in her fall/winter collection, managed to marry the two personalities of this fabric with guipure lace dresses. She took black lace and made it look austere and prim and by adding dickies at the neckline – they practically look like something a nun or Mennonite might wear, a naughty one.

Prada believes in lace so much that she reportedly bought the entire stock produced from a Swiss factory. Small surprise, whatever the highly influential Prada does, it usually sends shock waves through the fashion world.

This holiday season, any chain store worth its fashion credentials is in on this trend and has lacy little black dresses for the holiday. They're perfect for the festive season and beyond, ladylike and classic, but also suggestive and sexy.

Best part of all, accessories to match are really easy to find. See Long Gloves and Fingerless Gloves.
