Manon Kündig showed his collection at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp Show 2011 that was inspired by inflatable pieces. Besides looking like a walking fun house, all these pieces are sure to guarantee you safe from drowning. Yay. The most impressive out of the bunch was an inflatable skull dress. Inflated, …

I recently went to Disneyland in Anaheim, California (Gwen Stefani’s hometown) and got to see the park all decorated for the holidays. It was really, really beautiful! The castle was covered in lights and twinkled like Miss Mimi’s eyes when she sees chicken. it happened to be pouring rain …

Uta Levan is a New York-based fashion label that specializes in art wear. The last photo is a 4 piece ensemble with a crucified Spiderman on the back. That is sure to make 8 year old boys (or 35 year old geeks) everywhere scream and crying in terror. The first photo …

OMG- this guy, Judson Beaumont, totally makes the coolest furniture. I mean, who wouldn’t want a ‘dress’ er! Get it a ‘dresser’!? Awesome. He has done work for Disney cruise ships and play areas in airports around the world, but I’d love him to do some work in our humble abode. …

Japanese design house Jenny Fax by Shueh Jen-Fang of Mikio Sakabe has to be one of the most ‘in-tune to my taste’ collections. I mean, it has huge Dynasty-like poufy shoulders, pastels and cute screen prints of anime and cats! Seriously, I have the same fashion sense as 5-12 year old girl. I also shop …

This must be my favorite collection from all the Spring fashion shows. It’s fresh, cute, sweet and stylish. I think Marc would do a great job at Dior with this sort of vision. The colors are like those minty candies you find at those 1970’s steak houses. I love doilies, …

That Sarah Burton is really deceiving with her ‘comfortable shoes’ and frumpy personal style. Who would have thought she could come up with this beautiful collection that could’ve come from Alexander McQueen’s very own brain? The best part of it all are the hooded dresses. They should make more of …

The only reason I posted about British label Ashish is that they put flowers in a pair of army boots. Genius. I’m not a huge fan of flowered dresses, so no comment about that. Actually, yes comment on that. Flower dresses are reserved for department stores like JC Penney, in …

I love love love this collection by Meadham Kirchoff! The pastel colors- the girlish touches, and Teddy Bears!! My fave has to be the mint feather dress in the 8th photo. It looks bouncy and cuddly like Mr. Marmar. I do see some influences by Fam Irvoll and Irregular Choice. The …

I can’t help to think these gorgeous gowns by Marchesa are reminiscent of Roman body armor and the slinky quality of a 1930’s flapper dress. Marchesa has got to be one of the best American designing houses of all-time. You may disagree, but each gown is just so specially detailed …
