Moves Like Jagger on Rolling Stones in Harper’s Bazaar

Edited by

She doesn’t need to try to control you. Look into her eyes and she’ll show you the moves like Jagger. Because Georgia May Jagger inherited those moves from her legendary parents, Mick Jagger and Jerry Hall, then learned a few of her own. Writhing around on rocks off the sea, the light finds her in metallics of chains, golden thread and fish scaled paillettes. Alexi Lubomirski lensed this cover shoot for Harper’s Bazaar UK March 2012, bringing rich bronze tones from the natural jagged surroundings while Vanessa Coyle brought looks from Givenchy, Herve Leger and Salvatore Ferragamo to rock Jagger rolling on the stones.

The 10 Most (and Least) Oscar-Worthy Gowns from Haute Couture Fashion Week

Edited by

As many a starlet is aware, looks don’t always translate well from the runway to the red carpet. Nowhere is this more true than in haute couture. Sure, this gown costs $35,000, was constructed by a team of half-blind old ladies whose skills are so specialized they can be classified as endangered species and contains actual diamonds, but Joan Rivers still thinks you look like a refugee from some drag queen concentration camp. No, events like the Oscars require a little discretion and the simpler you keep it, the better. Of course, there are exceptions, but not every actress is a Charlize Theron, a Cate Blanchett, a Nicole Kidman or a Tilda Swinton — risk-takers who can pull off haute couture with the greatest of ease. For the rest of ‘em, here are 10 safe gowns sure to please along with 10 only the brave of soul and intrepid of style should even consider.

Edited by

When the Dragon Tattoos come off, we’re get to glimpse America’s hottest starlet, Rooney Mara? Back in 2009, she had the fresh innocent face you see below, with long wavy blondish locks. Now, much like her tattooed character, she is stronger and sharper than ever before. See her stun the red carpet tour as hard as she moves issues of Vogue.

10 Menswear Looks That’ll Have You Tripping Balls

Edited by

Fashion is a trip. But some fashion is trippier than others. It’s those distinct looks in a collection that make your eyes pop a little wider as they expand your consciousness to accept grander philosophies of the universe. This season was rife with designers experimenting with wild menswear, and we’re glad to see the rougher sex getting freaky with the Avant Garde.

Christian Dior Spring 2012 Haute Couture an Exercise in “Sheer” Boredom

Edited by

Bill Gaytten and the hardworking hands of the Christian Dior atelier returned this haute couture season with a much more subdued collection than last fall’s largely-derided offering. Trading in silly headpieces and deafeningly loud prints for cleaner silhouettes and a sedate color palette of largely whites, greys and blacks, the aesthetic pendulum swung rather violently. The storied house has also adopted the industry-wide obsession with sheer panels and overlays, already brought to its perfect zenith by Givenchy seasons ago. Still present, however, was the classic Dior New Look shape of  a cinched waist and a full skirt. While this haute couture collection was a deliberately safer outing for the still-creative-director-less Dior, it understandably and inevitably came off more than just a little boring. Gaytten and co. have yet to strike the right balance between the house’s glorious past and the fantastical places John Galliano took it during his legendary reign. But at least they got one thing right: Karlie Kloss was back opening the show. If you want a strong start, there’s no better hoofer in the game. Check out some highlights — and a few lowlights —  from Christian Dior’s spring 2012 haute couture show after the jump!
