  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 …

I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS! Designer  Angela Brandys is not afraid of color and mixing and matching textures to make a totally new look- punk rock luxe gypsy. I pulled that one out of my ass- but doesn’t it sound super fancy and cool… punk rock luxe gypsy. Yeeeaaaah, I like …

Ever wanted to go out in style and couldn’t find the raddest coffin that sums you up? Check out “Boxed: Fabulous Coffins from the UK to Ghana” in London. They were on display this past January, so I’m pretty sure they’re not there anymore but you can see the pictures here. Everything …

Mary is usually the queen of trompe l’oeil, but this season, she decided to go  more science fiction than the lanai in a Boca retirement home. It had elements of Alexander McQueen’s collection that made the armadillo shoe so popular. You know the one where the models had cable car tracks …

If you took everything in my closet, plus the contents of a drag queen’s closet and add a dash of Punky Brewster– you would get Meadham Kirchoff’s Fall 2012 collection. All the sparkle, spangle, fur and explosion of prints is enough to disorient anyone with a pair of eyes. Instead …

London-based designer Inbar Spector is pretty much the master of making honeycomb gowns. I’ve written about Inbar before and have her on my radar. What I love most about her designs is how ethereal and otherworldly they are. It sort of does remind me of Alexander McQueen if he had a super feminine …

London accessories designer Fred Butler showed a plethora of pastel origami on heads, shoulders, chests, and waists. I always love Fred’s playful and youthful designs each season. That pointy shoulder origami ensemble is pretty rad. I’d totally wear that with a Judy Jetson skirt. Also, loving the pastel hair! I wish I …

I was a little confused as to whether or not Red Valentino is in anyway associated with the Valentino, whose signature color is, indeed, red. All I could find was this site that I’m guessing is the site for Red Valentino, which has nothing to do with Valentino the huge …

Norwegian designer Fam Irvoll showed her collection in London this season for the first time. Monsters were the main theme of the collection, which I loved. I really appreciate her playful designs and tongue-in-cheek humor of her designs. If you like the quirk, then definitely check out her website and …

London-based designer A La Disposition unveiled their Fall 2012 line with a dramatic show involving blacked out models and hats fit for an 18th century aristocrat hiding a jug of whiskey. Seriously, if I had a hat like that, I’d hide everything under there, including Mr. Marmar. Their collection involved lots …
