I bet Miami is a great city. But there's a really big difference between skimpy outfits and fashion.

Unless skimpy outfits are in fashion.. Which they're definitely not.

Thanks for posting, tho. I'm all for Global fashion and local tradition.

 

[julioinmiami]

I think you have a good point, but as a guy- I'm not complaining.

 

[telepathicgoat]

Well, this is the fashion spot. U might wanna post ur fantasies somewhere else.

 

[julioinmiami]

I think you misunderstood my comments and the style behind the swimsuits. They make the women in them look good and attractive (I don't think that says anything about fantasies).

 

[telepathicgoat]

They make them look like objects...

 

[julioinmiami]

Two of these models are friends of mine and they definitely would disagree with your comments. I respect your point of view though.

They make them look like objects...

As do many of the designs in collections shown in Milan, New York and Paris...

 

[julioinmiami]

Great point, Donner. I would bet that the models walking the runway don't feel that way.

How can you compare that?

There's a big difference with a woman being an object and a woman being powerful and glamorous. So show me three examples of decent-quality fashionhouses that do in each city.

If you like this kind of fashion, wear it.

In my book, I ignore this kind of fashion, for I think it isn't relevant AT ALL to show a woman dressed like this. And thank god that we have come to this point.

Actually I dont ignore it, I think it's repulsive...Sex isn't, but objectifying women and their everyday life is...

Lol and that woman in the pink bikini, are we gonna discuss her feelings? It's about an old-fashioned designer who thinks that there is nothing more to designing then shaving your pubes.

If you don't get this, watch the Versace and the Cavalli shows. That's fashion. This is just vulgarity.

 

[telepathicgoat]

But hey, again... I'm all for local tradition and global fashion. If this is what Miami has to offer, then so it is.

Please, let's try to keep this thread on topic

oh god, there's always going to be the same crap about how women are "objects" by the way they dress or designers put them out there as...

personally, there's nothing good coming out of miami. at least for my personal appeal of clothes, the designers are total cheeseballs and the clothes look super cheap. what's sad is that this is supposed to be fashion week, as nyc and paris, and when i was in school i never showed because it wasn't accepted because it wasn't "vibrant" or "sexy" which in my eyes, is street walker clothes, whatever, i didnt' give three shts about what my school thought, this looks worse than what my school showed, its so amateur

Everybody sees miami as the mecca of the hooker looking women and whatnot, and although there's more to it than just that, that will be the style that prevails. Most women here WANT to look like that. You can't even save the swimwear, cause most of it its from brazil as well, whatever is good.

so using the "fashion makes women look like objects" card has become old and tired, and miami isn't the big exception.i hate miami fashion week, i hate miami period.

actually some HF designers know how to skank it up.

 

[julioinmiami]

Don't knock it 'til you've tried it. Miami has much, much more than this to offer. You're motivating me to post my other pics.

What do you think of these from Mercedes Benz Fashion week in July of this year (South Beach
