I’ve always been fascinated and appalled by bullfights. It’s not smart to mess with traditions, but I still think it’s a secretly sadistic event.

Cayetano Rivera Ordoñez shall wear Armani to face the bulls in the LII’Corrida Goyesca, on September 6, in Spain. The Ordoñez are no strangers to design bullfighting outfits, since Pablo Picasso sketched for Antonio, Cayetano’s grandfather. The Armani costume is heavily blinged – sequins, glitter stones and thread in the fabric’s nuance. All I can think is Madonna’s Take a Bow feat Pimp My Ride sequins edition. What’s all that sequins and stones work supposed to do? Blind the bulls?

After showing how perfect Armani Prive can be on her, Cate Blanchett pulled off from the Cannes Red Carpet and went back home, in Sidney, Australia for the premiere of the new Indiana Jones.

She remained faithful to Armani, but not to gorgeousness. Her face looks as halogen-ish as ever, but I confess I was in no hurry to see her in shining gold bacofoil. How is this dress doing any justice to beautiful Cate?

As is the case with the awards, the Oscars Red Carpet is turning into a politically correct fashion moment. Preferably long dresses, strapless corseted floor sweeping gowns in safe colors and cuts.

I know you’ve probably seen the Red Carpet and you must already have shaped an idea about the style of the 2016 Oscars Red Carpet Dresses, however, I love discussing these things with you ^_^ and especially confessing my own views. Last night, all the ladies looked like giant wrapped candy. Few notable exceptions, of course, but other than that, giant wrapped candy!

Although many of you still think that fall is somewhere in the distant future, but for fashion connoisseurs, the Fall shows are already over and done with since spring. However, the most spectacular of them all, the Fall Haute Couture shows wrapped up their fairy-tale walks less than a month ago.

What can we retain from the most sought after fashion designers who presented their most exclusivist and fashion-outstanding collections for fall?

Before casting an overwhelming influencing light on fashion and style, Haute Couture is exactly what its name suggests: a higher state of sartorial things. The sublime elevation of wearable items during the Spring Summer 2014 season happened in France this month.

Above all exhilarating sewing and cutting masterful execution, some general outlines were noticed and, the most shocking of them all were sneakers in Haute Couture! Both Karl Lagerfeld and Raf Simons included sneakers in the designs they sent out the catwalk for Chanel and Christian Dior respectively.

The 2014 Golden Globes Awards wrapped up the official ceremony and made way for the afterparties while we sit back and take another look at the glamorous dresses on the famous ladies in attendance.

The classic black dresses were quite well represented tonight, two of my all-time favorite actresses (Cate Blanchett and Sandra Bullock) having opted for fabulous black dresses at the 71th edition of the Golden Globes Awards.

Sandra Bullock in Prabal Gurung Dress

Nominated for one of the most impressive movies of the year (Gravity), Sandra was, again, one of the most beautiful appearances on the Red Carpet. Her Prabal Gurung black dress (from the Pre-Fall 2014 collection) was a bit out of the ordinary as it included colorful panels both at the hem and on the bustier of the gown.

Are you fascinated by Franca Sozzani’s power over fashion and time? Just like Anna Wintour, Franca has managed to lead Vogue’s editorial office for 25 years and still counting.

Unlike her US counterpart, Franca is always trying to push the boundaries of fashion imagery. She’s always tried to conceptualize this or that strange attitude or place because fashion stories tend to look alike. Models tend to be more uniformly beautiful while photographers can become stuck in routinely photographing the same clothes. Franca Sozzani found her style. And her style and is strong and interesting.

Here are 6 of her golden rules:
{6} Don’t be a follower, take risks! Franca Sozzani has been the editor in chief of Vogue Italia for as long as Anna Wintour has been the editor in chief of Vogue US. She considers strange or ugly people to me more interesting and stronger.

Watching the 2013 Primetime Emmy Awards Red Carpet was a little like staring at rainbows. There was certainly no dull choice among the jewel-toned gowns of the ladies attending TV’s biggest night!

Although it was really hard to pick a favorite, I would say that my personal tastes were inclined towards picking Jessica Pare who wore a lovely turquoise Oscar de la Renta dress as one of the most fashionable of the night. Especially since the gown was hot off the catwalk, part of the Spring Summer 2014 collection that was shown just a little over a week ago in New York. That’s fresh fashion indeed! Closely behind Jessica Pare’s OdlR gown, in my top of preferences, I’d like you to admire (after the jump) the ever-flawless Heidi Klum in skin-tight Versace!
