Wheres My Sword!?


Balmain Spring/Summer 10

Sas & Bide spring/summer 10
Military style fashion has been huge for some time now, and for good reason. Its can be very wearable, affordable, and always looks polished. While I will still never get over any of my military pieces, the style its self has evolved into what Balmain describe to be "Warrior" more additude and wildness can be expected. Ancient warlords and kings have stormed the imagination of the fashion world, and elements of military history have been reinterpreted with a modern - often futuristic and fierce - twist.

Think ancient Egypt and Rome, but lets not get this confused with the one shoulder grecian look because that is so not what i'm getting at. Look out for;
Metal plating! (gold is oh so good)
Tunics; especially in leather!
Chain-mail inspired detailing..
Tribal inspired motifs.

Invest in accessories that will give any outfit a warrior edge; like studded leather belts, new and edgier takes on the gladiator sandal, jewellery based on ancient cultures.
