Always one to push the boundaries of fashion — whether in his role as creative director of Mugler, as stylist for Lady Gaga, or fashion director at Vogue Hommes Japan — for his own label Nicola Formichetti wants to take fashion into the digital age, incorporating technology in ways it’s never been used before.

Fashion’s latest darling is no doubt Azealia Banks. The raptress is a favorite of Karl Lagerfeld, performing at Chanel‘s The Little Black Jacket launch party, and has been taken under the professional styling wings of Nicola Formichetii. The 20-year-old will soon have her official coming out party when she performs at this year’s Costume Institute Met Gala.

Nicola Formichetti and Terry Richardson decided to double team a small army of boys for Vogue Hommes Japan‘s “Boys Town.” The result is an über stylish spread that brings to mind the heady male modeling days of the 1980s starring recent Humpday highlights Jordan and Zac Stenmark, Jesse Shannon, Rafael Perez, Arthur Gosse, Jamie Wise, Alexander Beck, Simon van Meerveene, Dae Na, Alex Michaels, Allen Taylor, German Ruiz, Hao Yun Xiang and fish-mouthed beauty Justin Halley. Seriously, I haven’t been so offended and/or inspired by a masculine face since Sebastian Sauvé slumped onto the scene. Anyhoo, take a ride into town with the boys of Vogue Hommes Japan.

As if we weren’t crushing on Azealia Banks enough — I mean, I almost death-dropped off my bike when “212″ came on in my spinning class yesterday (and yes, I take a spinning class) — the raptress/bad bitch decided to take up with fellow crush and superstar stylist Nicola Formichetti, who styled her latest video. Inevitably, there will be Lady Gaga comparisons, but aside from generally shutting it down, the two don’t have that much in common. Banks, however, did take a page out of the Lady’s playbook by debuting her newest track at the Mugler show in Paris. Check out the Mugler Men’s fall 2012 runway film, featuring Azealia Banks’ “Bambi,” after le jump!

It’s the SuperTailor look. You know, the kind of tailoring made out of superhero materials like neoprene, rubberized cotton, jacquard… okay that last one was more for the Marie Antoinette type, but she was a cake eating hero, too. Nicola Formichetti and Romain Kremer put out a collection of modern party-after-businessman looks for Mugler Fall 2012. It’s not as wild as the typical Thierry, but the textures carry historical silhouettes into overtime.

3D jumped off of movie screens long ago, and made their way to the Norma Kamali show back in September, and Nicola Formichetti‘s BOFFO pop up shop with a 7-foot three-dimensional Zombie Boy in front. Now designers are sending dresses to the 3rd dimension with screen prints that require 3D glasses to see clearly. Check them out and get those eyes popping.

Lady Gaga graces the cover of L’uomo Vogue styled (as per usual) by best friend, stylist, and creative collaborator Nicola Formichetti. In their typical statement making style, she goes topless in one of the shots, with a nice yet noticeably large rack. Naturally this has led to a string of internet rumors of whether the lady got her gagas enlarged through plastic surgery. Click through to check it out & let us know what you think. (We would say this is NSFW but you really only see her right side boob and her left boob is covered by a nipple tassle).
