VERSACE FW10 @ MILAN FASHION WEEK
Thursday, March 11th, 2010
Versace—a brand known for high-slit gowns, body-con daywear and glamour (thanks to Donatella herself; Gianni once referred to her as his muse)—is an inspiration to many designers, including me. Whether it's Milan Fashion Week or a red carpet event, I ...

LOOK OF THE DAY- MIXED MEDIA
Thursday, March 11th, 2010
Revealed by many a designer for FW10, I am loving the look of mixed textures—dubbed "mixed media" by some. One designer who did it masterfully was Peter Som—in fact, his collection was one of my favorites; I became more entranced ...

HAIDER ACKERMANN FW10 @ PARIS FASHION WEEK
Wednesday, March 10th, 2010
Haider Ackermann's FW10 collection absolutely blew me away! I looked at show's runway images three times in a row. Major fashion porn. Best suited for a Far East motorcycle gang member-slash-Victorian vamp, the collection came complete with origami pleats, obi-style ...

Freja Beha Erichsen in Purple Naked by Inez & Vinoodh for Purple #13
Wednesday, March 10th, 2010
Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin's black-and-white images for Purple #13 capture the transcendent allure of model Freja Beha Erichsen. Powerful currents of femininity and androgyny duel, challenging cultural norms and the modern female archetype. Beyond all political statement, the ...
SHOE OF THE DAY: FLEET ILYA HARNESS BOOT
Wednesday, March 10th, 2010
Since 2006, Fleet Ilya has been behind some of fashion's most interesting (and kinky) leather accessories. For SS10, the label introduced Plexiglas and a futuristic vibe to many of their pieces, including a very sexy over-the-knee, cut-out harness boot in ...

The last collection by the late Alexander McQueen consisted of 15 regal, Rococo warrior looks. The collection was exemplary of a rare visionary—an ode to centuries past, combined with an air of modernity. McQueen continued to experiment with ideas from ...

Look Of The Day: Back In Black
Wednesday, March 10th, 2010
Though best described as head-to-toe black, Freja Beha Erichsen's outfit (spotted outside the Jaeger London FW10 show) is better than basic. Her seemingly-effortless mix of everyday separates (a knit over a cotton tee paired with skinny denim) and updated extras ...

La Mer Watches
Wednesday, March 10th, 2010
For me, fashion and watches have never gone hand in hand—possibly because I've come to associate watches with stopwatches and other sporty styles with high-tech functions. Because I'm not really the sporty kind, I've avoided watches altogether—that is, until I ...

T BY ALEXANDER WANG FW10
Tuesday, March 9th, 2010
Each season, I discover another reason to love Alexander Wang. For FW10, it is his T by Alexander Wang collection. T by Alexander Wang is his lower-priced basics line. In seasons past, it's been a group of tees, tanks and ...
Nasty: Mariano Vivanco for Wonderland Magazine
Tuesday, March 9th, 2010
I'm loving this Wonderland Magazine spread, with its denim-on-denim and all-American feel. Such a guilty pleasure, it's almost...nasty. Photographer: Mariano Vivanco Fashion Editor: Anthony Unwin Images via Wonderland Magazine
Don’t Sweat It
Tuesday, March 9th, 2010
I usually don't attempt to write about menswear, as I'm definitely no expert; what I do know is that I like to see men in well-made, fitted clothes—simplicity, versus anything bedazzled, by Ed Hardy or that could be confused with ...
SHOE OF THE DAY: SERGIO ROSSI SEQUINED GLADIATORS
Tuesday, March 9th, 2010
Gold paillettes cover this beautifully-constructed gladiator-style stiletto sandal by Sergio Rossi. I love the stingray skin-covered heel, which adds yet another something special (as if even needed). Spectacular! Available online at Net-A-Porter, Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue.
