To the beat of a different drum

Osklen has got to be one of my favorite brands in the southern hemisphere at the moment. The past few collections I've seen have been magical, and their Spring 2010 range more than any other because it was inspired by CARNAVAL in Rio. Of course! What better starting point for a Brazilian designer? Instead of 8 foot tall headresses, the models had these metallic bangs similar to the material my Jem™ wig was probably made of in the 80s. And instead of sparkly pasties, it was sparkle all over with amazing confetti & supersized sequins, not to mention the weightless sheer fabrics that appeared to float over the body- which is mega essential for the sticky summer.

Check out this beautiful collection in motion to the tune of some intense samba beats...
