Sharp bobs offer up a futuristic, almost robotic slant to 1950s dressing in this shoot by Steven Pan. Karen Kaiser’s styling takes the typically-now elements of crop tops and high-waisted skirts, pastel colours and retro-inspired prints and sharpens them with a distinctly modern edge. Meanwhile these two dysfunctional ladies of leisure – played by Alana Zimmer and Hanne Gaby Odiele – occupy their lives with…

Hanne Gaby Odiele may just earn the title of Queen of the Eclectic. Was ever there another off duty model so daring in their mixtures of colours, textures and prints? Always game to show off some midriff and able to pull off a combination of skinny leather pants and a Missoni cardigan with an unprecedented level of cool, this is one of those eclectic outfits…

You might disagree on some level – but wearing lingerie as outwear is one degree of sexy, and then wearing a sports bra as the only piece is groundbreakingly sexy. Hanne-Gaby Odiele’s off-duty style proves it. The strategic all-white styling, from the nail enamel down to the shoes, compliment her lean physique. It’s almost like looking at a moving cloud, for which the wind blown…

The second issue of Antidote magazine centres around something most, if not all, women are enamoured by: shoes.

In an accompanying video preview…

Looking for more inspiration on getting 2011′s take on the leather harness right? Hanne Gaby Odiele’s own version has that classic feel of being more equestrian, less fetish. And while the crop top makes for a daring accompaniment, this type of harness could work with anything from a fine knit to a tee to a crisp white shirt.

Regardless of what fashion trends are sweeping in on the spring breeze, there’s nothing that tugs at the sentimental corners of my heart like pastels. Pastel colours are cherry blossoms, and marshmallows, and those sticks of chalk you used to draw with on the pavement with as a kid. They add colour without adding boldness. They hit you with memories. This outfit worn by Hanne…

Indulging in cake, jumping on beds, having pillow fights and all the while clutching some of Mulberry‘s latest luxury handbags. A day in the life of models Abbey Lee Kershaw and Hanne Gaby Odiele must be oh so tough.

So sporty clothing has made it big as a 2010 fashion trend. But just because your slouchy grey tracksuit pants have made the step up from your gym bag to your Sunday morning coffee date, doesn’t mean your workout gear should stop getting your love and attention. Au contraire, it can work both ways. Your fashion purchases can now find their way into your gym…

Daniel is still sceptical about patterned pants as a 2010 fashion trend; and I do agree that the wrong ones can be disastrous. But it’s for that very reason that when you get it right, it really stands out and creates a feeling of fashion-forwardness that the mainstream aren’t yet on top of. Model Hanne Gaby Odiele is a great example. Wearing Dries Van Noten‘s…
