I really like Thom Browne’s collections, in general. Some are odd, but still wearable and some are really gorgeous. This Resort collection falls in the odd, but wearable category. But that’s mostly due to the layers and layers of different prints. What I love most are the plaids in this …

Central Saint Martins graduate Craig Green’s Spring 2013 collection had some elements that reminded me of the Abu Ghraib prison. Seriously, wearing these clothes could be a form of punishment that Guantanamo Bay can pair with the Sesame Street theme. They should totally add this to their repertoire. Anywho, I guess it’s not …

As you may know, designers Edward Meadham and Benjamin Kirchhoff create wonderful, whimsical fashion for women. But they have designed a collection for men that I have to say is pretty, damn FUG. It’s just a normal day in the ecstasy haven of a three decker house in the slums of Miami. …

Emily Seul Ki Uhm is a graduate of the London College of Fashion and this was her graduate collection. I have to say, I really like the simplicity of it all… polka dots, tic tac toe, stripes. And the colors are pretty awesome. But somehow, it all looks slightly ill-fitting and …
Read More »Amato Haute Couture- Gorgeous!
I’ve written about Amato Haute Couture before – I love love love their stuff! The butterflies do remind me of Alexander McQueen’s dress, but it’s still rad anyway. The model is Raina Hein from America’s Next Top Model… I never really see the contestants on that show doing much after …

Scientists in Australia had a brilliant idea to add a nasty bacteria to wine to transform it into the fabric of our lives- cotton. Seriously, this is something people at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting would brainstorm when their mentor is gone for a few minutes to the restroom. I mean, …

London College of Fashion graduate Rikke Bonde designed a collection that has me sort of wondering if he’s ever been to California. According to Fashion 156, ” The collection was highly influenced by a journey Rikki made to California.” Really? Because last I remember, usually you sweat your balls off, …
Read More »Fantastic Plastic
UK milliner Keely Hunter designed the above collection called Logan’s Run. It’s futuristic, it’s sleek and it will surely make a passerby say, ‘Whaaaaatt?’ I love the plastic plexi-glass look and it this gives us all a license to put an Ikea fruit bowl on our heads. Yay for that. Next …

Check out Indonesian designer Tex Saverio who showed at Jakarta Fashion Week 2012. This is all kinds of fabulous! As some of you may know, I love love love tacky gold especially when it’s in the style of a a baroque Liberace palace. It’s my favorite. Anywho, I did some heavy …
Read More »The Power of Fats by Sophie Limin Han
London College of Fashion student, Sophie (Limin) Han was meant to “celebrate the confidence of different sizes of women in modern age” through her collection named ‘The Power of Fats’. It should have been named the ‘Kirstie Alley’ collection. I mean, are those ziplocked ham sammich’s as a skirt?? That’s …
