A collective of three designers made up a show called “MAN” in London for fall of 2017. It was pretty out there, which I enjoy for entertainment. But, if I saw dudes running around the street in an adobe chimney or a patriot fish costume, I’d probably take my children …

It was the debut collection for Maria Grazia Chiuri for Christian Dior and I would say, she pretty much nailed it. She captured the romance of Dior ( I’m sure her time at Valentino helped her hone that craft) flawlessly and set the stage for Dior to go back to its …

I’m always in awe with how many ways Gucci can make a collection more offbeat than the next. As a recent Gucci-worshipper, this collection was no different. It was elegant, yet uncommon. It was wearable, yet eccentric. It mixed street fashion with high fashion… it was perfect! And those oversized …

Our favorite crypt keeper, Karl, has definitely been reading up bedtime stories on WikiLeaks! His entire collection was based on the internet and the age of information and technology. Here are my favorite looks from the collection. I’m really loving the baseball caps in tweed. Those helmets that opened the …

Rihanna created an entire line with Puma based on what Marie Antoinette would wear to the gym. First of all, I LOVE LOVE LOVE this collection. There are a few WTF pieces, but overall, it’s brilliant. Secondly, Marie Antoinette wouldn’t go to the gym because that would take time out …

Anrealage has been pretty fashion-forward and now you can say they are technology-forward, too. Here’s what Vogue had to say about it: “Morinaga’s silhouettes tended toward the ample: flowing caped cocoon shapes and skirts, wide slit-leg trousers, tops with trenchcoat detailing, and boxy shifts with thick black bands binding the …

Dolce & Gabbana’s love affair with Italy is still going strong! This season, dress were made to look like tomato sauce cans, pasta were printed on dress, and ornate band jackets were thrown into the mix representing music. Food, music and glamour… all cornerstones of a fabulous lifestyle. If the …

This is totally, like, what a punk rock origami aficionado would wear. So many sharp folds! So many spikes! So much eyeliner! So many ripped fishnets! I have to say, I do like this collection and would probably rank photo 2 as my favorite. All those spikes are bound to …

Comme Des Garçon always serves up impractical fashion at its finest. Here are the conversations that must go on in a Comme Des Garçon design room: “Sitting is so passé! What? Use the bathroom?? What’s that? Going through a door that’s NOT a French door…. impossible! Scratching an itch on …
Read More »Ashish- Spring 2017- Curry Couture
Ashish went Bollywood this season! Honestly, the clothes are ‘meh’, but the crowns and jewels are where it’s at. Also, the blue face was cool, but don’t be surprised if a crowd of Smurfs protest… blue face is not a funny matter to them! Anywho, this was Ashish for the …
