Impatiently waiting in line at an elevator bank to be let up to the Malandrino presentation, we had little choice but to survey our co-habitants in the line. One thing struck us: This is an amazingly stylish crowd. EVERYONE was dressed to the nines. It just may have been the most well-dressed...

From the show notes: “Inspired by the modernists in New York City, Fall is a sexy study of graphic lines, colors and textures pulled together with a fresh ingenue spirit. Young, carefree and full of color. Ready to hop on a scooter and take on life in the big city. Something New...

Kittens, we are ready to put this day of mega-posting (it’s possible we broke a couple records) to bed, so once again, we provide the pictures and the discussion points; you take the conversation where it needs to go. Please remember to use a number 2 pencil.   Kellan Lutz looks...

Vivienne Tam’s stated inspiration for this collection was Chinese opera and it’s quietly evident in the rich textures, intricate details, sumptuous colors, and overall sense of exquisite drama. There was so much to look at with each piece that even with the gigantic screen...

Marc Jacobs dove into the deep end of the ’70s pool last spring with his part Rocky Horrr/part Studio 54 coke-fueled glam looks. This collection, on the other hand, has an easy, earthy chicness to it that recalls the better parts of ’7os fashion while avoiding the cliches. We love...

Glamour girls and party girls everywhere must have rejoiced to the heavens when news of this collection reached them. It’s all a bit much for us, but if you’re looking to be (or already are) a queen of the nightlife, celebutante, reality television star or trophy wife, these are...

We’re not sure what was more exciting: watching a dozen perfect specimens of male modelhood walking the runway in long johns, or the fact that the official Perry Ellis twitter was responding to us while we were tweeting the show. Either way, it was a thrilling experience and a quietly,...

Darlings, allow this to serve as a counterpoint to the Grammys red carpet, the theme of which seems to have been “LOOK AT MY LEGS, WORLD! CAN YOU SEE MY LADY BITS TOO? MAYBE!” Emma Watson in Valentino Spring 2011 Couture It’s pretty, if a little dull, color-wise. Everyone...

Darlings, we are wiped out, and fashion week is only half over, PLUS we have Grammys and BAFTA red carpet upon which to opinionate. We can only offer you discussion points on all the fame-whoring in the front row and hope our precious minions can take it from there. Are we ready? Then...

    Christian Siriano and Payless partnered once again to produce the shoes for his runway show, versions of which will be sold in their stores. Press release, why don’t you take it from here?  “Designed to channel natural influences , the Christian Siriano for...

Christian Siriano, it seems, has grown up. How else to explain this (relatively) low-key collection; a departure from previous seasons’ extremely exuberant efforts? Gone are the overt McQueen and Westwood references, as well as what the New York Times called his penchant for...

Darlings, here are your discussion points: Gabrielle Union is way too pretty for cameltoe. Play “Spot Tom’s tiny head” behind Julia Stiles. Play “Spot Tom’s tiny head” behind Alex and Simon of the Real Housewives of New York. J’ADORE Alan Cummings,...

Set to Florence + The Machine’s “Cosmic Love,” the quiet, simple femininity of this collection, with its rich colors and beautiful movement, provided a perfect counterpoint to the pounding and wailing of the music, making for a very dramatic experience. As people who spend...

Kittens, the stars came down from the sky and sat in the front row of a bunch of fashion shows. And like stars are wont to do, a lot of them dressed in appalling and confusing manners. For instance, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Jill Flint, Cory Kennedy: appalling. Garcelle Beauvais, Lynn Collins,...

Darlings, it’s the Heart Truth’s Red Dress Collection fashion during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week! “The Heart Truth will once again bring the Red Dress to life on the runway at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York City, with the debut of the Red Dress Collection 2011. Being...

We absolutely ADORED this collection when we saw it walk the runway, especially the menswear. What can we say? We’re biased. It’s kind of a shame that the pictures don’t really tell the whole story. In person, these clothes moved beautifully and the materials and...

  Darlings, stylist extraordinaire Rachel Zoe has her first collection out, which she describes as “uptown chic and downtown cool infused with Parisian elegance and London street style.” We’ll just see about that, won’t we? Survey says… supercute, wearable looks and...

We can’t help thinking there’s a message here we’re just not getting. For this collection, Lagerfeld took his inspiration from the artist Marie Laurencin; specifically, her portrait of Chanel herself.   Portrait de Mademoiselle Chanel Marie LAURENCIN (1883 – 1956) 1923...

Beloved unborn fawns, we’re currently on Amtrak heading home after a day of fabulosity and shopping in New York (hence the lessened output today). Thankfully, with a collection as stunningly beautiful as this, we don’t have to say much. In fact, it’s your turn to play home...

There’s a sort of understated drama to this show. Almost every piece gives you reason to stop and take it in, but few of them seem to go to far. Stéphane Rolland is truly a master of drapery and these pieces move beautifully. We love the metallic pieces and accents, the playing around...

Pier Paolo Piccioli said “it’s time to go back to elegance” and this collection couldn’t be a better example of that. Less is indeed more here, but there’s still a sense of romanticism that calls to mind classic Valentino. Lots of sheer, pleats, ruffles and tiers...
