Speaking of Capitol Couture…Hello Meadham Kirchhoff at LFW
Edited by Jessica Lapidos
Meadham Kirchoff showed earlier this week at London Fashion Week, and his last four looks seemed plucked straight up out of the Hunger Game‘s Capitol. Think dyed skin, bowed hued hair, glittering wrap-up-the-leg shoes, sheer bright flounce and a more is more is MORE philosophy. Octavia, Katniss Everdeen’s colorful aesthetician, would look killer in this, donchathink? What say ye, Capitol Couture?




What do you get when you mix Sylvia Plath’s symbolic bell jar with Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein laboratory? None other than Mark Walsh and Leslie Chin’s Fall 2009 jewelry collection for Rodarte. Sadly enough, the pieces didn’t make it to the runway in time for February’s fashion week but fortunately, they will be available for purchase! To compliment Rodarte’s mummified collection, Walsh and Chin created evocative geodes under jars and tangled broken glass, so very reminiscent of our high school chemistry courses. The 21-piece lineup will be sold at Colette in Paris and Capitol in Charlotte, North Carolina this fall.
