Summer Style: Fun and Function

Sorry spring, summer is here, and here to stay.  For any fashionista it's imperative to stay stylish and functional: it's a balance we all need to keep. Obviously, MyDROBE is here to keep you practical and gorgeous, and we've had our eye on  a couple of designers who are combining form and function to keep you chic and cool at the same time.

There's a new trend going around, and it's quite "clear" what it is. Eh eh, see what we did there? Check out some of these styles by Prada and Charlotte Olympia.

        

Sheer tops are also a great way to stay a step in front of the heat, while looking sexy and stylish at the same time. Here are some great "peekaboo" looks by Christopher Kane.

And who doesn't love a good cutout to look great and keep cool.

These beautiful Reiss pumps feature some cutouts.

Then you have these stunning cut out dresses by Stella McCartney.

Models aren't the only ones wearing Stella McCartney either, take a look at some of your favorite celebrities rockin' her style. From left to right, Stella herself, Miranda Kerr, and Jamma Mays.

High End Fashion and the Economic Recession

When the American economy took a nosedive in 2008, now known as the "Great Recession", economists and analysts made predictions on the projected values of consumer goods for the coming years. Luckily for us Drobers, "High End Fashion" has remained largely untouched by the recession, just as those analysts predicted.

Worldwide, brands like Gucci, Prada, and Versace have shown burgeoning sales while other consumer goods have dropped dramatically. As the stock market and home prices continue to rise, and unemployment begins to fall, Americans are spending more money.

In early 2013, Hermès International reported a 21% increase in sales in the Americas for their fourth quarter. This trend continued with brands like Tiffany and Cartier, which makes us very happy Drobers to know that our favorites in fashion are alive and well, and definitely here to stay.

The impact of high end fashion isn't just on the runway and in your DROBE, as Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York City brings in 850 million annually, and that's nothing to laugh at. We could buy a lot of dresses with that. A lot.

Though this trend is expected to slow down, it still means that these high end brands are safe from the recession, and that they will continue to provide us with beautiful clothes and a style to die for. Maybe it's because their names precede their brands, or maybe its because their clothes are just that good. Either way, we at myDROBE are ecstatic.

Check out these styles at myDROBE and get DROBED!

The Daily Drobe: Gatsby Me NOW

May 10th. The Great Gatsby.
Drobers, the party is still on.

A little bird whispered to us that The Plaza Hotel has gotten roaring-twenties Gatsby-ed.

The hotel is introducing a whole new menu inpired by F. Scott Fitzgerald. It's even offering a fine “Fitzgerald Suite."

At the hotel you will find:
Costumes display, Prohibition cocktails served in "discreet" Plaza flasks, weekend brunch menu with classic 1920s dishes, a live jazz band, Moet champagne bar, deviled quail egg salad, curried lobster salad, banana financier, chocolate bonbons---and last but not least---a spa treatment at the Caudalie Vinothérapie Spa.

Roar, roar, roar. Roar on, twenties.
