Yay or Nay: Christian Dior Fall 2013 BagsEnough with these vapid celebrities and their ill-advised outfits, kittens. Let’s all get a cuppa whatever we need at the moment, sit down in the break room, and talk purses. Don’t even try to tell us you don’t want to. It seems almost silly to put the following bags up to a... Yea or Nay: Givenchy Spring 2013 ShoesKittens, designers lately seem to be in love with adding clear plastic elements to very expensive shoes and we have yet to see a pair that really benefits from it. The latest attempt comes from the House of Givenchy, which offered up the following in their recent Spring runway show:... Yea or Nay: Fendi Spring 2013 AccessoriesDarlings, what do we all think of the Rubik’s Cube-by-way-of-Legos-with-a-bit-of-Tetris Fendi spring 2013 accessories? They’re certainly fun, if nothing else. Anything that inspires THAT description would have to be fun. It seems to us that the shoes are more than a bit...

Fall 2012 Trends: HatsDarlings, who doesn’t love a good hat? Well, people with big heads, we suppose. Marc Jacobs Granted, it seems like a bunch of designers went full-bore crazy when it comes to the hat designs for this season. Anna Sui, Burberry Prorsum, Christian Dior Donna Karan, Emilio Pucci, Giorgio... Fall 2012 Trends: Winter WhiteRachel Zoe Yes, the crocus is blooming, but let’s cast our fashion minds forward to the next time the weather turns cold and the leaves go out in a blaze of glory.

Has the stench of Gypsy Rose Lee and Miss Piggy been washed away? Is it time for the long-maligned opera glove to come back to the world of fashion? Alexander Wang, Antonio Berardi, Betsey Johnson Carolina Herrera, Chanel, Christian Dior Diane... Fall 2012 Trends: ZoolandAltuzarra Lions and tigers and … owls? Oh my. For whatever reason, certain corners of the fashion industry got together for a chorus of “Let’s Get Feral” for the fall season. Animal prints ruled (some of) the runways, and by that we don’t mean faux leopard... Fall 2012 Trends: OrnateValentino It makes a certain amount of sense when you think about.

Aquilano.Rimondi Balmain Dolce & Gabbana Giles Marchesa... Fall 2012 Trends: PantsuitsAh, the much-maligned pantsuit. We never quite got why people put it down so readily.

Fall 2011 Trends: Capes and PonchosRag & Bone Fall 2011 Collection Kittens, we are well aware of the likelihood of ony thinking “hippie chick” when one hears the word “poncho.” For ourselves,we have a hard time hearing “cape” and not thinking of either Liberace or Superman. Or... Fall 2011 Trends: Velvet LooksRoberto Cavalli To borrow some phrasing from Rachel Zoe, velvet, it seems, is having a moment. We’ve always considered it one of the harder fabrics for the average person to pull off, at least in a full-body sense. We’ll happily be proven wrong, however, because some of the... Fall 2011 Trends: The TurtleneckThis is another of those topics born out of a conversation at Lincoln Center, waiting for a show to start. To wit: “Man, they’re throwing a whole lot of turtlenecks down the runway this season, aren’t they?” And if you detected wariness in that sentence, you are a very... The Accessories Wall: Fall 2011 BagsViktor & Rolf Fall 2011 Collection Man, we wish we could do these kinds of accessories posts every day.
