In this week's top Fashion, TRACE Urban goes back in the 90's.
Little models strutted their stuff down the catwalk as the sixth global edition of the 'International Dwarf Fashion Show' returned to Paris on Tuesday. Models measuring no taller than 1.30 meters, or four and a quarter feet tall, wore the latest clothing trends designed especially for people with dwarfism. Founded in 2014 by fashion insider Myriam Chalek, the show aims at reversing the diktats of beauty and giving smaller-sized people the opportunity to express themselves and their creativity.
Models of all shapes and sizes showcased an array of clothes from fashion designer Carina Cassusceli's brand 'Moda em Baixa' or 'Fashion Is in Shortness' in Rio de Janeiro on Sunday. Carina's fashion line focuses on apparel for women with dwarfism and short stature and the designer says that 'Moda em Baixa' is a project designed to celebrate all bodies types. Her focus on creating styles for people with different bodies goes back over a decade to her time directing theater plays for which she has won several international awards. The company was founded in 2009, and works to promote the idea of 'body democracy' in fashion, catering to everyone without excluding certain body types.
These 24-carat gold moccasins definitely have the Midas touch. Designer Antonio Vietri, from the northern Italian city of Turin, showcased the world's first 24-carat gold woven shoes on Wednesday, which will be sold under the designer's label called 'Gold Shoes'.
