In an unexpected but certainly not unwelcome twist, H&M’s next collaboration will be Vogue Japan‘s spirit animal/creative consultant Anna Dello Russo.

Anna Dello Russo‘s closet must be a mystical, magical place. Always seen in a different ultra luxe runway look, she simply never repeats an outfit. While the Editor-at-Large of Vogue Japan is a bona fide style icon all day every day, she steps it up for Fashion Week with some personal rules. One being, “Nothing succeeds like excess.” The Coveteur invaded her closet post-Paris Fashion Week to talk tips (it’s well more than being excessive) on being exceptionally chic from a suitcase through four cities in one month. They (and we, in turn) get a little insight into Anna Dello Russo’s life, wardrobe and soul.

When the air is fresh and the breeze holds a chill, outerwear becomes as important as innerwear, and your look becomes all about the jacket. Yet another day in Paris, we spotted our favorite jackets (shocker the winner was on miss Anna Dello Russo) and brought them back for you. Check them out after the jump.

Just one look at Aline Weber in “The Girl Who Rocks the Planet” from the latest issue of Vogue Nippon and it’s immediately evident who styled it. Living Bratz doll Anna Dello Russo has her kooky claw prints all over this editorial, shot by Giampaolo Sgura in arcades and on the streets of Tokyo. The lion heads, the Balmain, the Cavalli, the Versace, the statemenet eyewear and headgear — disco ball motorcycle helmet anyone? — it all speaks to Dello Russo’s fashion-is-fun/more-is-more aesthetic as well as her own personal style. I mean, I’ve feel like I’ve seen the lady herself in a number of these looks, or at least will in the near future. Take a saunter with Aline through the land that Hello Kitty built in “The Girl Who Rocks the Planet.”

Turns out the rumors were true — or at least half true. Jil Sander, the lady, is returning to Jil Sander, the label. The latter announced today that the former would indeed return to her eponymous brand after retiring eight years ago. “I am very happy and excited to be back. It feels like coming home after a brief journey,” Sander said in a statement. “The fashion world needs original voices and genuine signatures. I will do my best to, once again, join the choir.”? Meanwhile, Raf Simons ends his seven-year stewardship of Jil Sander with his final collection on Sunday, but what he’ll do after that is still up for speculation…

Jack of all fashionable trades and modern-day Renaissance man Milan Vukmirovic describes his new bi-annual magazine, Fashion for Men, as “very elegant, simple, modern and,” above all, “masculine.” Truly, its 620 pages are dripping in testosterone with collaborations from guest of honor Givenchy’s Riccardo Tisci (hence the snarling rottweiler on the cover) and streetstyle auteur Tommy Ton and the manliest of them all, Anna Dello Russo – the only (alleged) woman in the mag . This Male Model Humpday, we take a look inside the mega-tome’s premier issue with three strapping spreads starring Chris Moore, Eric Puzio, Ian Mellencamp and one of our fave gents, Travis Cannata.

Though wildly hyped and nearly universally panned — but at least his homegirl Anna Dello Russo had his back — Kanye West‘s fashion line, Dw, is still alive and kicking. Not only does it have a Twitter account, a prerequisite for anyone’s official existence, but now rumor has it the Louis Vuitton Don is moving his design studio to London to be closer to the comforting glow of Central Saint Martins.

In what may be her quirkiest video yet, everyone’s favorite eccentric editor Anna Dello Russo brings you her Christmas video card. Between the couture, the questionable tension she has with a very slim Santa (how fashionable), and the coughing that happens when a fog machine loses control, we love every single thing about this video. Merry Christmas!

‘Twas one hell of a year for fashion, 2011. Alexander McQueen triumphed this year thanks to a pair of well-documented dresses and a bona fide cultural phenomenon at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Christian Dior tried to rebound from a potential PR nightmare, to varying degrees of success. Diffusion lines easily out-shined their designer homes. An editrix reinvented herself amidst a sea of rumors without losing a beat. And underaged fashionistas grew up in front of our very eyes. Here are our picks for the 25 most memorable and stylish moments of 2011.
