Designer Philip Plein’s latest show was aptly named “Alice in Ghettoland” and had Paris Hilton and Fergie walk the runway show. To me, this was sort of like a low rent Moschino/Jeremy Scott show, especially with the gold chains and denim combination, as well as that swimsuit in the 6th photo. …

…JUST KIDDING! The British, deep, dark, depressed goth king of fashion, Gareth Pugh, showed how spring should look like with black EVERYTHING (ok, not everything)and touches of gold.

Thom Browne‘s latest women’s collection was set in, what looked like, a pool locker room. The collection was a profusion of trompe l’oeil Stepford Wife suits and dresses in pastel shades and flashes of the signature red, white and blue stripes. What I loved about this collection was the trompe …

Leave it to Jean Paul Gaultier to show us “How to do That”! And by that, I mean, go all woodsy in high style! It was faux bois mania at Gaultier’s Haute Couture show and it was fantastic. Flooring departments at Home Depots across the nation would be proud of the …
