Amen, Rick Owens

Written By on Sep 29th, 2008

I have a thing for this kind of western religion influences. For example that Gaultier Spring 07′ couture collection. The headpieces and the shoes might be very dramatic but the clothes are 100% wearable. The dresses have cut-outs, the fabric drapes and some looks are bare-backs. A dress like that, in monochrome, might look simple »

Written By on Sep 28th, 2008

At fashion week, Maybe all those running around has got onto these fashionistas. But sooner or later, everyone starts wearing the same stuff, always wearing all black, even their flats. By the way, have you notice how often does Anna Wintour wear her rumpled white coat? She has been spotted wearing it from New York »

The accessories at Marni

Written By on Sep 25th, 2008

Over-the-top is not really something that I will associate Marni with but this time, it’s quite a departure. Though it looks a bit messy, they might look fine individually, given that the accessories department of the Italian label has always been churning out loads of highly coveted charming stuff, think those geometrical necklaces a few »

V #55 Supermodels galore

Written By on Sep 15th, 2008

Usually, it is always the September issues that have all the magazine covers screaming ”biggest issue ever/this year”… so V got theirs nonetheless and the covers are modelicious as usual. If you are going to buy only one copy, which one would you get? For me it would be Anja. I love this veteran Vs »

Even though Paris is an important fashion capital, there are hardly any french models out there who is as major. Ok there’s Morgane and umm, Laetita & Noémie, but maybe that’s all. But this season, admist the whole pool of newcomers, this French lady caught my attention. Sigrid Agren (New York model management) At Marc »



Calvin Klein past exclusives ’02 – ’08

Written By on Sep 12th, 2008

Firstly, what does an ‘exclusive’ means? “The model gets paid a lot of money and will only walk that particular show for that particular capital’s fashion week.

Let’s enjoy some incredible pictures while on the run with fashion week. By Craig McDean I love that last picture with all the models in Maison Martin Margiela— very extraterrestrial and mysterious. »
