As you may know, I friggin’ love BOWS! Lace, satin, velvet, vinyl, leather- if it’s in the shape of a bow, I love it. Anywho, Antwerp designer Niels Peeraer‘s spring 2013 collection is sprinkled with nude-colored leather bows on structured handbags, headpieces, necklaces and rings- really beautiful stuff. You just have …

Libertine‘s was all about prints and prints and more prints. It was enough to induce a seizure, but I do have to say of them were cool, especially the satin suits and dresses with colorful streaks on it. It looked like a redux of an old Moschino suit I used to …

Those hats! really, that’s the only reason I’m posting this collection because the raver-Blade Runner clothes aren’t really much to write about. I think the Hellraiser one is the best in the fourth photo.. I also like the studded one in the 3rd photo…. I wonder if I can take …

It was about the birds (that’s British-speak for ‘lady’ ) and the bees for McQueen. The show had more fake flowers than a 99cent store, which I have to say , I LOVED! The honeycomb design was also super cool and of course, the caged corsets were KILLER! I love …
Read More »Three as Four -Spring 2013- Yeah okay.
Three as Four is one of those designers that pretty much spit out the same stuff every season, just in a different shade of color. I guess they are avant guarde still, but DAMN! mix it up a bit. The only look I like is the dress with the mirrors …

Look at all that gold and flashy stuff on the face and head! It’s so 1980’s, Indian discotheque-ish! It’s as if Bollywood exploded with Jem and The Holograms! I kinda love it. My fave is the tiger shirt and leopard skirt- Rrrrrooaaar! Check out Manish’s site for more of his …

You know a collection is gonna be good when the first model out has her face covered as if she fell off the ugly tree and hit every branch coming down or something. Anywho, Gareth is pretty much the king of goth, so this collection definitely fit. Gasp and die! …

I love the direction that Dsquared took- 1990s Chanel biker chick. The heavy chains, the quilted black leather, the biker hats… so badass. I guess we can start piling on the chains, pearls and what ever else that shines around our necks and waists. Yay. In the late nineties, I was definitely guilty …

Dolce & Gabbana’s Spring collection was totally inspired by The Olive Garden. The breadstick baskets, the bags of semolina flour- I see what you did there, boys! I have to say, this collection is really cool and has elements of 90’s Moschino in it. Remember that collection Moschino did with …

Yay for Meadham Kirchhoff! I can always depend on them for spazzed out – Victorian-dolly punk rocker looks. And BOWS!!! Look at those boots with pink bows ALL OVER it! LOOOOVE! The punked-out Victorian look is totally my favorite look by the way. It goes well with my Persian …
