ThreeAsFour failed to disappoint this time around with their Spring 2014 collection. Drat! I actually liked their collection- it was space age, new age, and my favorite, lace tea time tablecloth set all rolled into one. I saw a bit of Iris Van Herpen and a bit Lady Gaga in …

British designer Samantha Cole ‘s latest collection, Warrior, is all kinds of badass. I googled her because I had never heard of her before, but some pop star with the same name kept coming up.

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 …

Gareth always knows how to dress for an alien invasion and this season’s collection was no different. I think it’s safe to assume Gareth has been watching marathons of Ancient Aliens these past few months. The cage fabrics are brilliantly tailored to the model’s bodies, which makes me think …

Oh yes! Leave it to Dutch designer Iris Van Herpen to show them how it’s done! Couture is one of those instances where the designer has a license to put the most effed up stuff on the runway and Iris totally takes advantage of this! That fourth picture looks like a …

British designer Felicity Brown uses layers and layers and layers of fabric to create a whole new look in fashion. I’ve seen this technique before, but Felicity ( not THAT Felicity) really does it well! Part desert bohemian, part futuristic, part victorian, this collection is debuted at London Fashion week …
