Is that a bird?! or is that?….

Its all about feathers for fall 2007! Don’t mistaken your best friends shirt for her pet ostrich, she is just keeping up with the latest trends. The feathers have become a very noticeable accent on the runway over the past few seaons, but especially on the run way during the Mercedes Benz fashion week. The feathers appeared in all degrees, and are categorized from overwhelming to a beautiful accent to numerous runway pieces. For example Sari Gueron used the feathers to embellish the neckline of a shirt and hem of a floor-length black gown.

John Galliano

Louis Vuitton

Then other designers covered pieces in feathers to help increased their visibility and really catch someones attention on the runway. Whether or not this trend is going to catch on is up to you… but i will be honest.. the last thing i want to look like is Big Bird walking down the street! But hey …Everyone from Prada (with her fake feathers), to Marc Jacobs (with gray ostrich feathers) to Louis Vuitton is doing it! So don’t let my opinion sway you.

Take a look at what was on the runway in feathers for Fall 2007!
