Jean Paul Gaultier does only two collections a year these days and it’s apparent that each show is all about QUALITY. This collection drew inspiration from the sea with coral-like materials, seaweed colors, and of course the striped nautical pattern that is so distinctly Gaultier. This show, burlesque star, Dita …

John Galliano gave us a contrast of bright graffiti prints and then subdued, clean colors to ‘cleanse our palate’…. All I know is I need to cleanse my palate after seeing one too many strait-jacketed, bald people. photos: Vogue

It was Egypt meets Paris at Balmain this season…. the strong shoulders unique to Balmain coupled with geometric patterns and the mix of cutting edge fabrics with classic tweeds and denim made for a futuristic, modern take on the classic, polished Balmain silhouette. It was a one of Balmain’s best …

Jeremy Scott’s collection was a fascinating combination of motocross with political undertones… kind of like an activist biker. In any case, I loved the pink biker skirt suit in the second to last photo and the thigh high boots. If that was an outfit for a badass Barbie biker chick, …

Our favorite crypt keeper, Karl Lagerfeld,  created an entire Chanel collection with homage to the ‘The Love Boat’… no, actually, it’s a tribute to Coco Chanel’s French seaside villa named La Pausa. The nautical collection had hand-painted sequins, elegantly shredded denim and gorgeous pastels. Makes me want to ‘Sail Away’ …

What a beautiful collection all around! I love the Victorian vibe echoing through the collection matched with modern fabrics. Also, the furry heels are definitely on my wish list … I mean, sashaying though the kitchen will be my goddamn job everyday with those shoes… clean floors all the time! …

Belgian designer Raf Simons (formerly of Christian Dior – remember those awesome sequined sneakers? That’s him!) has been reconstructing Calvin Klein for the past year. The overhaul includes daring materials and a little bit of tongue-in-cheek fun while still maintaining an all-American look, which is Calvin Klein’s mainstay. To me, …

Anrealage gave us a whole collection based on those 1980s curtains and the art of wrapping duct tape continuously around your body. I would call this groundbreaking, except I think I’ve done made and worn these when I was a bored 3rd grader during a New England blizzard. Trapped at …

But where’s HOT MUGSHOT GUY?????!! Hot Mugshot GuyHe’s probably too busy on a yacht somewhere… Anywho, this was Philipp Plein’s latest collection, which gave me low rent Alexander McQueen vibes with the cage dresses… and a discount Givenchy with the Bambi and Disney references… What I’m trying to say is…. bring …

Gucci gave all kinds of 1970s glamour that can only be thought up after smoking cloves laced with cocaine and inhaling fumes of Aqua-Net on the regular. There was ice-skating glamour, tawdry lingerie disguised as dresses, and BUGS BUNNY and SNOW WHITE! They stole the show! Why wouldn’t anyone NOT …
