Fashion Designers

Hungarian designer Dora Abodi was inspired 17th century France, the movie Wolfman and sheepherders for her latest collection. I have to say, that is one effed up combination, however the collection actually is not all that effed up. I’m liking the extreme shoulders, although I have always  loved big shoulders since …

I had the pleasure of going to the Tim Burton exhibit at LACMA again. I saw the exhibit last year in NYC, but wanted to take my son to see it in LA. Above is what I wore…. It’s sort of a bizarro-goth look, I guess? The dress is from …

Check out these cool magazine covers and fashion ads by Inge Jacobsen– she stitched these by hand and each cover took her 2 months. That’s a lot of patience! Once upon a time, I used to needle-craft like an golden-aged, church lady on a mission! It was addictive and I would …

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 …

Recently, I interviewed the cast of The Hangover 2 , so I broke out my Sailor Moon terry cloth outfit! Actually, there is no significance what so ever since the movie was shot in Bangkok, Thailand and Sailor Moon is from Japan. Anywho, the top I found in a vintage …

Recent graduate of O’More College of Design , designer Carly Nelson, unveiled her graduate collection recently that was inspired by Dario Argento’s Suspiria. I have never seen the movie, but I know it involves ballet, witches and blood, so I’m gonna have to Netflix it STAT. Anywho, I’m loving the Elizabethan collar, gingham and nefarious …

When I first saw this collection, all I could think about was: a)The imitable Tilda Swinton as the White Witch with the yummy Turkish delight treats in that Narnia movie. and b) Mr. Marmar’s luxurious fluffy muffin fur. The resemblance is uncanny, especially in 5th photo. I just want take …

In honor of the Royal Wedding …. I have to admit I’m a complete Anglophile. Not sure why, but I am. I even have the teeth to show for it ( I have rabbit teeth). I love tea and scones, Benny Hill, Vivienne Westwood, Duran Duran and of course, those …

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. …
