I love Jean-Charles de Castelbajac way with fashion- fun, whimsical and practical. I like to think that he’s the new Moschino from the early ’90s… Check out the first photo with the dalmatians- Cruella De Vil would love that! I love that! The idea for the booby hands in the …

Russian designer Venera Kazarova showed her Fall 2011 collection in Moscow with mainly what looks to be wedding dresses. I love the theatrical quality of it all, however the pineapple reference is a bit strange. I know that pineapples are a symbol of hospitality from the pineapple hanging at the …

Designer Martina Spetlova loves her primary colors and lego blocks (check out her website)! I really like the  jackets in the first photo. It’s like a a Rubik’s cube, legos and pleated blinds from my gyn’s office collided. In other words, it’s WINNING (copyright Charlie Sheen)! On another note (not really), …

British designer Felicity Brown uses layers and layers and layers of fabric to create a whole new look in fashion. I’ve seen this technique before, but Felicity ( not THAT Felicity) really does it well! Part desert bohemian, part futuristic, part victorian, this collection is debuted at London Fashion week …

First, let’s get the FUG makeup out of the way: It’s like a mash up between Marilyn Manson and a paint huffer. Seriously, I’d like to see the inspiration boards for the makeup on this collection- I’m sure this is on there. Having said that, this collection was better than …

Viktor & Rolf remains to be one of my favorite designers but this collection , I feel, was not their best. It was okay. I always like how Viktor & Rolf different dimensions of texture to their collections. This time is what ruffles and what looks like to me, pinwheels. …

I have never heard of Sacai, but I saw these photos and I just had to mention that that first coat totally looks like my friend’s Hungarian Puli sheep dog. That’s all I have for this collection…. it’s pretty wearable and cozy. I especially like the collar in the third …

Designer Manish Arora is pretty good at using color in his collection and I admire him for that. I’m especially loving the hair, in particular the girl with the pink do. So cool! I have a pact with myself that when my hair goes greyish-white, I’m going dye it cotton …

Issey Myake is famous for those pleated fabrics that dominate his collections. I always think they just forgot to iron the garment, but it’s actually on purpose. This season, the pleats were toned down and folded in an origami sort of way. Pretty innovative! The first three photos are quite …
