Japanese designer Anrealage has a taste for the avant guard. Last year they did a pixel- collection was pretty rad. This season was all about the boxy cage dress in neon colors. LOVE! It’s like a birdcage and you’re the overgrown bird. My fave is the yellow dress with the huge shoulders… …

When I think of Russia, I think of Bond girls in white fur and diamonds drinking vodka. I also think of fat, burly, men drinking vodka and wearing those fur hats. So, in other words, Russia reminds me of fur and vodka mostly. Anywho, Russian designer Valentin Yudashkin went by way …

I just discovered this designer, Antonio Marras this season, so forgive me if you’ve already heard of him and it’s old news to you. Kinda hard to research fashion stuff like this with a baby hanging from your teat and a little boy throwing legos down the back of …

I’m loving these 1940s-1950s dress coats! So classic! So Mad Men! And the fur sleeves totally look like you’re smuggling two wrinkly dogs. I’m going to praise Muiccia for not hot glueing big ass ornaments and jewels for once this season. It was starting to look like a runway show for …
