Thom Browne always dreams up the most eclectic collections with a solid theme…. this season’s theme was the beach! There were gowns and suits with the Nantucket whale and crab print, sequined mermaid dresses, twin gnomes, and summer fruits twisted into fun ensembles. My fave out of the bunch was …

This is Noir Kei Ninomiya’s first collection covered by Vogue.com and the resemblance to other Japanese taste makers is uncanny. Influences from Rei Kawakubo, June Wantanabe and Comme des Garçon are hard to miss in this collection. However, the way he cuts the motorcycle jackets and origami dresses is a peek …

It was Egypt meets Paris at Balmain this season…. the strong shoulders unique to Balmain coupled with geometric patterns and the mix of cutting edge fabrics with classic tweeds and denim made for a futuristic, modern take on the classic, polished Balmain silhouette.

Viktor & Rolf have a knack for making the ordinary extraordinary… from the meticulously cut tulle dresses, their love for dramatic ruffles and the best of all… copious amounts of BOWS! As a major fan of anything with BOWS, Viktor & Rolf really nailed it for me this season…. and …

Here is the latest from Jean Paul Gaultier… he’s down to two couture shows per year, so the rest of the year, he continuously bleaches his hair and shows bitches “How To Do Zat” . Anywho, this collection had everything…. sexy riot police, supermodel nipples, a dress from a quinceanera, and …
