  Hammacher Schlemmer ( or the -just -clear -you’re -throat -and -hock- a -lougey catalog store) has these awesome christmas trees for sale this season. There’s even a Ballerina Tree that spins! How cool! I can see this as an additional tree in the walk-in closet or a little girl’s bedroom. These run …

And this is how it’s done!! Always a fan of Amato Haute Couture…. they really follow their own path and just design timeless pieces that exude glamour, sophistication and high art. Seriously, these are the ones to call when you have a red carpet event that needs wowing. Here are …

Wow wow wow!!! These sculptures are brilliant and they are by Tireless Artist. Part fairy tale, part Tilda Swinton, part haute couture, these sculptures are sure to be a hit on your mantle place! I know this would go well with the decor in my home. Anywho, check out Dorote Zaukaite works …

  You can always count on Alexis to bring out the most feminine glamour ever. He designs dresses that are meant for a cat fight in the lily pond with your arch nemesis.  I love the lace, satin and poufs and puffs in this collection. It’s kinda like those Valentine’s pillows …

  The House of Schiaparelli has been revived by Christian Lacroix (he’s focusing on theater costumes) this season and only this season, which I find fitting. Both designers are/were over-the-top carnival, sometimes busy, but always joyous. This special collection can be seen at the Pavillon de Flore of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs …

I think I have found my new favorite designer and her name is Ulyana Sergeenko . Here is her Haute Couture Spring 2013 collection. I did a little research on Ulyana ( I just googled her ass ) and found she’s a socialite- type (that may or may not be a Zsa …

Designer Larisa Katz  wore biscuit tins to a premiere at the Cannes Film Festival. Katz specializes in art couture for advertising, so this year she wore German-biscuit maker Lambert’s biscuit tins. This is pretty impressive. I love couture like this. Taking the unexpected and making something really exquisite and unusual out …

Dang! Polish designer Katarzyna Konieczka has designed some freaky deaky one-of-a-kind outfits that Jigsaw from ‘Saw’ would fawn over. That last one is really out there, I suppose, it’s more about the photography because I can’t see anyone wearing any of that out and about. Not sure why but that image of the …

  Check out Korean artist Yeonju Sung‘s  photo series called Wearable Food. These edible dresses are made from tomato, banana, eggplant, spring onion, white raddish, and other yummy produce. These are really beautiful, but wait a few hours when all the flies start swarming and the perfume of Eau de …

  Check the art of Jess Eaton. It’s made from roadkill. Feathers, bones, skulls, you name it. I have to say she’s pretty good at making a dead possum look glamorous. She also did a collection using Barbie Dolls which is totally rad! I once made a pocketbook out of …
