Now that’s a fun Haute Couture event! Jean Paul Gaultier Spring 2012 Couture was such a beautiful show, so colorful, so meaningful, so modern and anchored in our current reality! I loved it! It was almost entirely inspired by Amy Winehouse, which we know, was a source of fashion inspiration for many designers and brands [...]

Spectacular! Each and every one of Riccardo Tisci’s models from the Spring 2012 Givenchy Couture collection was breathtakingly beautiful! The sartorial exploits, the details on the dresses, the fabrics he used, it was all very powerful, very creative, very Haute Couture! The exaggerated jewelry pieces add to the general drama of the collection’s individual pieces, [...]

Blue. Pockets. Blue. Punk Hair. Chanel Couture Spring 2012 wasn’t all that complicated. Was it?

It’s a glamorous spin on Thierry Mugler’s edgy corseted looks, all in keeping true to Spring’s colors. It’s hard to imagine these looks won’t make it to the Red Carpet as they look [...]

I know you saw this happening last year and that the new hair it was announced as the twist. However, in Europe things may be a little different – Vogue Paris just confirmed in their February 2012 issue that the hair beauty must this season is the braid! I don’t mind, I love it anyway [...]

While I only saw dresses for an entire day and a half, I’ve missed out on something really big yesterday! Prada’s Fall Winter 2012 2013 Men Collection Fashion Show. Truth is, I’m so alienated by men’s latest fashions, I rather stay away from it. For style integrity reasons. Prada’s fashion show, however, was different. You [...]
