These are some incredibly intricate designs by one of my fave designers, John Galliano**. Some of it is a deconstructed mess, but some are really incredible! Like the jacket in the 2nd to last photo…. the tulle creates a face! Dayum! To me, that’s a wowie wow wow! Anywho, this …

Francesco Scognamiglio pulled a Maison Margiela with its bejeweled face mask, but still managed to hold his own with beautifully crafted gowns for his latest haute couture collection. My favorite look is the first look with the motorcycle jacket with lace detail. Leather and Lace can never go wrong together …

Fluffy and foofy was the theme of the Chanel couture show this season… Karl blah blah blah-ed about how he wanted a ‘clean’ collection and it sure does look ‘clean’- as in ‘lots of feathers for dusting and swiffering’, right?? Maybe that’s not what he meant. Anywho, I think my …

Rihanna created an entire line with Puma based on what Marie Antoinette would wear to the gym. First of all, I LOVE LOVE LOVE this collection. There are a few WTF pieces, but overall, it’s brilliant. Secondly, Marie Antoinette wouldn’t go to the gym because that would take time out …

Anrealage has been pretty fashion-forward and now you can say they are technology-forward, too. Here’s what Vogue had to say about it: “Morinaga’s silhouettes tended toward the ample: flowing caped cocoon shapes and skirts, wide slit-leg trousers, tops with trenchcoat detailing, and boxy shifts with thick black bands binding the …

Dolce & Gabbana’s love affair with Italy is still going strong! This season, dress were made to look like tomato sauce cans, pasta were printed on dress, and ornate band jackets were thrown into the mix representing music. Food, music and glamour… all cornerstones of a fabulous lifestyle. If the …
