How to Choose the Right Shampoo?

If you have oily or greasy scalp then choose a shampoo that has mild cleansers which would remove the excessive oil while keeping the natural oils in balanced proportions.
If you experience frequent pimple breakouts, you should go for a shampoo for acne-prone skin. It will help your acne heal faster.
Similarly, If you have dry hair then go for a moisturizing shampoo that has mild cleansers too. It should provide hydration and lock the moisture in the cells instead of ripping it all off.

History of the Birth and Development of Clothing

When the beginning of evolution from ape to man is when all body hair disappears. However, at that time, our ancestors did not have the concept of clothes.

Manish Arora – Spring/Summer 2015

For Spring Summer 2015, the Manish Arora woman has grown into a free-spirited traveller, tripping through pastel landscapes of roses and spaceships.

Prints are layered in sheer textures to create the hazy effect of double vision and dream state, whilst iridescent embroidery recalls the shimmering sun of long summer days. 3-D embroidered roses and graphic vinyl and chiffon eyes hypnotize beneath holographic panels.

An inter-play of inside versus outside sees cut away details on prints revealing hidden embroideries and jewellery glinting behind translucent glass nylon and striped knitwear touched with a gossamer lightness.

Self-reflection is playfully mirrored in pearlescent, reflective embroidery and pleated sequins. Embellishment is infused with an airy lightness throughout. Hallucinatory gods and astronauts float through kaleidoscopic lunar worlds on printed aertex and sporty mesh lined in iridescent lurex.

The freedom of the individual and the many different ways in wich people live their lives provided the inspiration for my collection.

To me, being open to everything and not following any predefined rules is a sign of our times. The individual’s attitude and take on life
are the elements that perfect the look – everything is wearable, there are no rules.

Christine Phung – Spring/Summer 2015

This is the story about a woman who enjoys cycling over the volcanoes. She loves the unpredictability and danger of nature. She loves that a rock can become liquid, the interior of the earth is projected on the outside, that the land can enter and merge, like blood under the skin when she cycles at full speed between the craters. She loves that lava becomes filaments deposited in layers, and forms a new material just waiting to be tamed.
