Straight from the catwalk in Paris, this Givenchy Haute Couture collection is amazingly ready to wear if you ask me. Beautiful, though — and still quite experimental. Riccardo Tisci is showing some real class at a really young age — and I’m really quite impressed.
My favorite looks are right below this paragraph — as you [...]

Pros:
+ Tights over the shoes look is [...]

I’m adoring quite a few of the new Haute Couture collections being shown in Paris — but this Josep Font Haute Couture collection for Spring/Summer 2008 is an absolute stormer… Daring silhouettes, sexy cuts and extraordinary color use…

Zowie Broach and Brian Kirkby are geniusses. I’m loving their Haute Couture SS08 line, and I’m loving the catsuit so much I wish I was a billionaire. The 11th year of this great fashion house in the making is looking so promising — can’t wait to see more pics. Until then — here are the [...]

This collection by Australian designer Jayson Brundson is stunning. All the designs are so feminine and beautiful, and nothing overdone, just beautiful fabrics, graphics, and designs. His label is inspired by the looks and lives of iconic women, and it really shows in his work. These dresses are absolutely beautiful, and again, they are so [...]

Berlin Fashion Week kicked off last week. And though everyone’s talking about the Hugo Boss show and subsequent celebrity-studded after party, I think the real goods can be found amongst the emerging designers and gallery exhibitions.
As always, Berlin is a city ready and willing to foster new talent. The Ideal Showroom, part of the week’s [...]

Yesterday, I was lamenting over Chanel’s boxiness, but don’t worry, there’s still hope for the curve. Check out Giorgio Armani Prive’s delightfully defined waistlines;
That last dress looks just about perfect for my hips. It actually seems to be based [...]
