Peter Copping to Replace Olivier Theyskens at Nina Ricci fashion

The rumors about Peter Copping heading design at Nina Ricci are true. On Monday, the ex–Louis Vuitton designer officialy replaced Olivier Theyskens, and started working on a resort collection to be unveiled in late June. However, his first runway show won’t take place until next March, allowing him plenty of time to situate himself in the label before coming-out at Paris Fashion Week.

Kanye And GF Sit Front Row at Paris Fashion Week fashion
Kanye West and his girlfriend Amber Rose were front row at many shows during Paris Fashion Week, including Hussein Chalayan, Sonia Rykiel, and Givenchy.

Amber Rose wore one of my fave dresses from the Alexander Wang Spring 09 show, which she accessorized with Louis Vuitton heals and bag (also straight off the Spring 09 runway).

‘The risky dress is completely sheer, with a few strategically placed black embossed swirl coils. Another feature is that the mini dress has cut-out thumbs at the sleeves.’

According to Red Carpet Fashion only 2 other girls wore this dress, Erin Wasson, and Sarah Harding and it’s available at Barney’s for $995.

Dior Homme Spring/Summer 2009

Corey Moran, Mens Editor August 20 at 12:00 | Comments

The Dior Homme Spring/Summer 2009 line is nothing short of perfection in my eyes. This line covers all the basics needs when designing a wearble runway line. This Dior Homme line is wearable and stylish, yet has those few stand out pieces that really make the line worth remembering. The color scheme is really what caught my eye when I first saw the line. The vibrant accent pieces and accessories, paired with simply elegant staple pieces make this line look great. I think this line just goes to prove that metallics and gold are both here to stay, where as the revival of pink and black could be in order. I personally hope that pink and black doesn’t come back, it’s so Hot Topic.

P.s how do we feel about the Jeremy Scott-esque glasses?

Thanks again to Selectism for the pictures!

Maison Martin Margiela Spring/Summer 09

Marissa Moshell, Student/Contributor July 3 at 3:07 | Comments

Maison Martin Margiela presented his spring/summer 2009 collection of Paris couture. The uniquely styled jackets each present a spark of individuality in their own right. Each model embodies a look created by
Margiela; while all are distinctly original it is clear that the pieces are part of a collaborative collection in which a bold statement never ceases to be made. Whether it’s models sporting outlandishly styled leggings or countless types of jackets Margiela’s looks are always created with full completion.

Rebecca Alexander, Editor July 1 at 2:52 | Comments

Everyone loved the current John Galliano for Christian Dior collection, in fact, it’s one of our top posts. This video gives behind the scenes footage from the glamorous event, and takes us straight to the runway to experience the beauty of the garments in motion. My fave part: John Galliano strutting his stuff down the runway, and posing, at the end.

John Galliano Never Ceases to Amaze

Rebecca Alexander, Editor June 30 at 1:44 | Comments

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!

More Reasons To Hate Bernhard Willhelm

Crowns? Feathers? Gold eye shadow? Long locks? Men as women? Another pointless collection from Bernhard Willhelm.

Backstage at Raf Simons

Rebecca Alexander, Editor June 30 at 12:38 | Comments

Yesterday, I thought Raf Simons was overrated, today, I think he’s pretty freakin’ cool. I’m questioning the mesh du-rags but the flip flop cut out shoes are awesome. And, the location where he held the show is absolutely incredible. Totally, my new fave designer.

Many designers used gray this season to highlight other brightly colored accessories. For example, Thierry Mugler used gray suits to punctuate the stark black and white gangster shoes, and Dries Van Noten showed us that camel shoes and man bags look amazing with patterned gray pants.
