London-based designer Barbra Kolansinski incorporated plaid and monster fur for her Fall 2014 collection. What I love about this collection is that it’s sort of a fun punk look that I could definitely rock… And the hearts here and there just make it so much cooler! I have to remember to put …

Sarah Burton decided to skin a few woodland animals, including the illustrious and bewitching Pepe Le Pew, for Alexander McQueen’s latest collection. The models look pretty cozy, except they also look angry. Scratch that, more like “hangry”. Someone throw a baby back rib up on there, for goodness sake. …

Whoa! The deep, dark, depressed look of Gareth Pugh is gone gone gone! It was all about the white… shiny, fluffy, and rubber-y. That last outfit reminds of the time I used to take mailing and packaging equipment and make god- awful outfits out of it… 3pm was my happy …

If you’re in the market for detachable collars, then check out designer Yuki Inoue‘s clear vinyl collars that can be filled with whatever your heart desires! They run about $150 and come in a variety of fillings from candy to those 70’s looking dried flowers. I personally would fill mine with cat …

One of my old high school friends, Jennifer Hill, was kind enough to knit the fur I had saved over the course of Mr. Marmar and Miss Darcheen’s lives. Thirteen years of brushed fur amounted to enough spun yarn to create the extraordinary, flawless keepsakes above plus 3 mini-blankets. …

Our favorite Russian did it again! Couture designer Ulyana Sargeenko showed a beautiful (once again) couture collection for the fall. My favorite out of the bunch is first look with the puffy, fuzzy made from a million Mr. Miggins fur! So, fluffy, so cuddly. I love the silhouettes and the …

Okay, I’m totally confused about Moncler and their 7 million different lines. Apparently, there is Moncler Gamme Rouge and a Moncler Gamme Bleu. The Bleu line is menswear designed by Thom Browne and the Rouge is the haute couture line by Giambattista Valli. Yeah… super confusing. Not sure why they …

When I think of Russia, I think of Bond girls in white fur and diamonds drinking vodka. I also think of fat, burly, men drinking vodka and wearing those fur hats. So, in other words, Russia reminds me of fur and vodka mostly. Anywho, Russian designer Valentin Yudashkin went by way …

I’m loving these 1940s-1950s dress coats! So classic! So Mad Men! And the fur sleeves totally look like you’re smuggling two wrinkly dogs. I’m going to praise Muiccia for not hot glueing big ass ornaments and jewels for once this season. It was starting to look like a runway show for …

Every season, I look forward to the graduate collection at Central Saint Martins for several reasons. One is that the students don’t give an eff about selling their clothes, so they don’t have a suit telling them to design wearable stuff. So it’s like a WTF free for all- yay! …
