Teacups & Couture A Fashion Blog by Roxanna Bina

London-based designer Ziad Ghanem went all dramatic and theatrical this season with  models in vaudevillian make-up and dress. The collection didm’t look like it had a specific theme, it looked really random.  I would say he’s sorta, kinda the British Jean Paul Gaultier, but Gaultier is a bit more polished in …

  Check out these suitcase stickers that will have the TSA in a tizzy! These retail for about $12 at The Cheeky. Spending $12 to possibly get you a TSA fondle, miss your flight and get on the No-Fly list, basically. Sweet! I would have to choose the tied up stewardess …

Artist Hubert Duprat supplied a bunch of Caddisfly larvae with with gold leaf and precious stones to see what they would build. Because these larvae are a bunch of lazy asses, they build things from what is lying around them. Any normal larvae would get in the station wagon and …

If Silence of the Lambs was a theme on RuPaul’s Drag Race, you would get Amato Haute Couture’s mask collection. I’m not sure what season these dresses are from, but it looks pretty timeless to me. With all that studding and metal, you’ll never have to go to the gym …

Check out British accessories designer Sophia Webster‘s latest collection. The Unicorn  and paint palette handbags are pretty rad! I’m really loving the hair dos that look like the traditional French wedding cake. I guess they’re supposed to be unicorn horns. I used to have messed up bangs like that when I …

  Here are the latest from emerging designers for Fashion East. Who knew a trout would be the accessory of the season? And the pleated burka totally looks like a lampshade over your face. But what I would wear is that pink fluffy suit. I would add some lace bunny ears …

Pam Hogg… hmmm… I have never heard of her until this season, but I love her already! Anybody that sends models down the runway with Christmas presents on their heads is A-OK in my book. I also love the American Horror Story bodysuits in Christmas colors, as well. It’s like …

  For the past decade or so, Moschino has sort of gone downhill for me. It’s not as whimsical and fun as it was when Franco Moschino designed for the label. However, this collection sort of redeemed itself to me. I do have to say it totally looks like a …
