Viktor & Rolf

I may be a lil late on this band-wagon... but... I'm just thrilled I found them. This dynamic duo of genius has everything I would love to offer to the fashion world and more: Creativity, Indivituality, machine age influence, Dynamics, Out-of-the-Box Mindsets... x2. The twin's Fall 2010 RTW collection left me speechless. With every design transforming, literally TRANSFORMING into the next, with the help of the designers themeselves, the show was taken to another level of performance art and design. I'm glad to present: V&R.

My McQueen...

Not only is it inspirational, its purely Lee, from beyond the grave. Happy to say, it doesn't look like he ever left. I'm also thinking this look will bring back the romantics back... Hopefully. Let us pray... for/to McQueen.

Emma Watson By Mario Testino for Vogue UK

... And she is stunning. Her new super short "Rosemary's Baby" bob is new and fresh and everything that I would have loved to see out of her. This 60's Mod shoot was beautifully done with Lace tops, mod minis, avante garde gloves & Beatles posters, not to mention a feeling of care free love. A must have Issue... if you can find it.

Mila for ESCADA

Winter '10 is looking really good for ESCADA this season. Seeing how they pulled Mila Jovovich out of her maternal shell that has stopped her from gracing more campaigns in the past years. Whatever it may be, its gorgeous and we will always love you Mila... classic.

Marc Jacobs Is Steppin' Out... In Drag!

Ok, not that much of a shock looking at his sexual orientation; but his status?? He's seen as a reborn, ex-druggy, leader of the fashion world. What will this do to his name? who knows?! Who cares!? He's working this cover of "INDUSTRIE" Mag and I'm sure it'll do nothing short of boost his career if not sex appeal. Go Girl!

Kanye, Runaway.

Not that I'm a fan of Kanye's being on this planet, but he has some good beats and sick visuals. So credit is placed where credit is deserved in this instance. His new 34m video, which samples songs from his forthcoming album, has every element in place for the approaching seasons and I think really sets the tone for Spring-Fall 2011. The color scheme, the design, everthing.

Shabby Apple Design!

Alright everyone, this is an assignment I had to work on for a design class I'm taking. We were supposed to design for a company called www.shabbyapple.com. They are a very simply designed womens dress site and have really cute and simple design. After researching the client, we had to research current trends and styles that we would like to use towards our designs along with a movie we were taking inspiration from. Seeing how 70's influence is way in (Thank you Marc Jacobs), I used the movie "Casino" Starring Robert Deniro and Sharon Stone. I created a cute 50's design and took the fabrication to the element of 70's the assignment called for.  This is my mood board for the line along with the Line Sheet itself. I hope you enjoy the work, be kind, I'm a beginner.

 

Gaga Time

We all know about her. But do we know what made her? Or who made what she wore?  Not really... being so deep into the scene, Gaga knows the unknown and exclusive so I thought I'd bring it to you; The designers of some of Gaga's most outlandish gowns... starting with the Living dress Brought to you by designer Vin Burnham. The gown is complete with animatronics none the less that make it look as if it's breathing, expanding in and out with a wing span of  of 5ft. And no show stopper would be complete without a headress that wears you.
