I caught the dramatic designs by haute couture fashion designer Stephane Rolland at the finale show of Women’s Fashion Week 2011 (Singapore). Let me take you on a sneak peek of what went on that night at the show.

Main hall for cocktails, hors d’oeuvres and mingling in style. (Yes, I had my fill of champers that night. Happy happy. *hic*)

A short introduction and bio of the designers who headlined this fashion event.
Man of the hour: Stephane Rolland.
If you are unfamiliar with who Stephane Rolland is, here’s the brief bio.
The theme that day was Winter, hence the lighting and decor were designed to create that ambiance. The earlier shows which took place during previous days bore other seasons and the event decor was modified accordingly.
The show’s about to start!!!
Too bad I did not capture a video, but just wanna note here that the music which the models went down the runway to was this uber cool jungle beat. It was really dope!
As soon as the first model walked down the runway, I got engrossed by the show so I didn’t take many pictures. The photos you’re seeing below are swiped from vogue.it website.
Out of all the outfits in this collection, my favourite is the black number (bottom left).
The grand finale dress was this exquisitely weaved silk dress weighing 45 kg or something crazy like that. Can you believe it?!? This dress weighs more than me! (And probably that model too.)

So who’s never heard of Stephane Rolland before?
*raise hand*… Me.

Yes, I admit I have never heard of this fashion designer prior to the show and honestly I am not too crazy about the Fall/Winter 2011-12 collection that was showcased during the show. :X HOWEVER! When as I was searching for background info for this blog post, I did spot several of his designs in past collections which caught my eye. And I’d say that his signature style is a combination of feminine silhouettes and strong bold geometric/angular accents.
Anyhoo, I am not an expert when it comes to fashion. I usually spot the pieces that I like and can see myself wearing, so that’s that. :”P
