THE man himself!!!

This questionable yet incredible collection has had the fashion world talking since its showcase a few days ago. The audience, and us, are baffled by the mix of accessories not seen before on runways, including; aluminum cans, multi colored wigs attached to the waisting as bags, feather tutus, SJP inspired rose pins, safety pins, and tons of African Safari looking makeup. WOW, John, you never seize to amaze, and surprise, your public!

John Galliano Creates a Cruise Look We Love

John Galliano’s Cruise 2009 collection reminds me of a grown up Urban Outfitters shopper taking to the sea.  The flowery dresses mixed with fitted vest just feels so accessible with all that’s available at fast retailers like H&M, Forever 21, and Uniqlo.

Some key styling tips indies should take from this is the overuse of jewelery, the fearless mis-matching of prints, colors and solids, and the Blossom hats that accompany each dress.

Congrats on Galliano for launch his first Cruise collection, but so much of this seems like it’s available in stores now.

Thousands Mourn Yves Saint Laurent

Over 1,000 people gathered in Paris today to bid adieu to Yves Saint Laurent at his funeral at the Eglise Saint-Roche. Front-row guests included French President Nicolas Sarkozy, First Lady Carla Bruni, Saint Laurent’s mother, Paris mayor Bertrand Delanoe, and Madame Chirac. Also seated in the front row was Saint Laurent’s longtime business partner and lover, Pierre Bergé, who gave a tearful speech:

The 90-minute Mass was broadcast on giant screens outside the church, where throngs filled the streets around the Louvre. When Saint Laurent’s casket was carried in, thunderous applause erupted but the crowd was silent during the service.

Other notable designers in attendance included Christian Lacroix, Jean Paul Gaultier, John Galliano, Valentino, Hubert de Givenchy, Sonia Rykiel, Kenzo Takada, Alber Elbaz. Many women in attendance wore trouser suits in homage to Saint Laurent’s revolutionary design.

Saint Laurent will be cremated before close friends and family, and his ashes sent to a garden in Marrakesh at a house he bought with Bergé.

Esquire Attempts To Squeeze Some Art Out Of Its Covers

Esquire Magazine, in a brazen attempt to still seem relevant in todays world of dotcom fashion, decided to celebrate their 75th Anniversary by recreating some of their “iconic” covers created by long time art director George Lois. Most of the photos are pretty poor attempts at recreation and most of the newer images are just too different from the originals.  I can appreciate the Vivienne Westwood shot, which corresponds to an anti-war cover for the magazine that featured the 100th murdered Vietnam solider. Aside from that the connections seem strained.

Galliano Pulling a Lohan

Galliano Pulling a Lohan  emerging fashion

Fashions’ Favorite Space-Pirate

I must say I was shocked when I heard that John Galliano would be making a visit not to Parsons but to the Savannah College of Art and Design during his sojourn in America. However now it comes out today that he is still in New York, bedridden with a 104 degree fever. He was set to pick up the Andre Leon Talley Lifetime Achievement Award. That is not a joke, SCAD really has an award named after the Editor-at-Large at Vogue, the one who told Jennifer Hudson it would be a good idea to wear a metallic bolero to the Oscars.

Galliano seemed fine just days ago when he presented his Dior 2009 Cruise collection in New York. Now the sexy-fashion-pirate has conveniently fallen ill over the weekend. Given his reputation for being able to keep up with hard-partying Marilyn Manson in Paris, me thinks he had a slight case of the Lohans. Nothing some chicken soup and Valium can’t fix. Right Lindsay?



Hello Kitty in John Galliano for Dior Hits the Pages of Vogue Nippon

Hello Kitty Vogue

Completely thought I’d hate this, but it’s camp appeal can’t be denied. Hello Kitty hits the pages of Vogue Nippon this month wearing every item from John Galliano for Dior’s spring collection. The bobble headed Kitty may actually be a positive role model. She’s far from thin and exudes a style way beyond her years.

The issue follows someone in a cat suit as she travels Japan. How freaky would it had been to see woman in a cat suit heading towards you in couture?  Hurry up and make a US tour Kitty, I need a new Facebook pict and I think one with you would be keen.
