Videography: Madonna

Edited by

Remember when Madonna was the coolest bitch on the face of the planet? It was some time around 1983 through 1990. During that time Madonna revolutionized the music video and set the bar for the modern pop diva. Through a series of reinventions, Madge inspired and disseminated trends, influenced a generation of women and put out some seriously great music. That’s not to say she stopped doing that after 1990, but that was by far her greatest artistic and stylistic period. Of course, being the cultural force she is, Madonna kept going and kept pushing boundaries — all the while blurring the lines between fashion and music so that today it’s unimaginable conceiving one without the other. So while it’s great to go googoo over Gaga, here’s what made (and still — when she feels like it) makes Madonna the coolest bitch on the face of the planet.

I’m Looking Through You in Spring 2012′s Clearest Trend

Edited by

Surely sheers are sexy. They are the reason so many nipples exist on the runway. Clearly, we won’t be wearing them commando commes des models, rather these sheers are a sign that reads: make sure you are buying fantastic undergarments. Bandeaus, booty/bike shorts, itty bitty camisoles and more clothing-less-lingerie-like bras. Spring 2012 will be free of inhibition. Just ask Alexander Wang, Peter Som, Marc Jacobs and sensational others.

Bookclubbin’: The Other Side of the Picture by Olivier Theyskens

Edited by

Olivier Theyskens is one of the most singular designers in fashion today. His clothes are brooding, dramatic, poetic and above all beautiful, much like the designer himself. Shortly after dropping out of Belgium’s La Cambre Art Academy, one of his gowns ended up on Madonna‘s mannish back at the 1998 Oscars, thus propelling him to stardom. Documenting Theyskens road from precocious art star to his four seasons at Rochas and finally his brilliant but short-lived tenure at Nina Ricci was photographer Julien Claessens, whose haunting photos add another dimension to Theyskens sartorial creations and form the backbone for The Other Side of the Picture (Assouline, 2010).

FASHION SCRAMBLE: Levi’s, Nike & VS Poked By FBook Porn Scams + Aussies Charge Looky-Losers + The Dior Rumors Rage On

Edited by

- “Raunchy spam” has been plaguing the Facebook pages of Nike, Levi’s, Victoria’s Secret and Aeropostale. The spam included links to sex sites such as xxxblackbook, ihookup and Adult FriendFinder and quotes such as “I am a girl who has an innocent face but has a big appetite for s-e-x.” Dammit, that was supposed to say “has a big appetite for c-o…” — anyway, the point is, whoever is doing this is sick. Sick and fun…just like the sexy singles on Adult FriendFinder.  That’s Adult FriendFinder: putting the “end” back in Friend. [NY Post]
