I’ve just noticed that I enjoy the location of Karl’s show more than the clothes. After seeing Dior and JPG, I’m so bored with this. However, the location of the show is beautiful. I loved the shoes though. Now, I understand what Jeanne Beker was going off about at the Bata Shoe Museum exhibit opening last week. Karl’s influence is on display there now. images: thefashionspot.com
Steven Meisel Smart Moves: Vogue Feature Story on Style.com A little picture commentary for you by me. This is from Vogue January 2007. I’ve been ignoring this rave fashion trend that is supposely coming back. I figured it would be just a fringe thing. This picture has the dreaded sneaker heel by Dries Van Noten. I really like this photo for some reason. I do hope that this look doesn’t go mainstream. I like it and all, but it’s not something I want to see executed without stylist supervision. I hate to admit this but I do like this layered tank by Marc Jacobs. Makeup and hat are a big no for me though. images: vogue
Balenciaga S/S 07 collection from YouTube. The Balenciaga site also has video of the show but there is no sound, boo urns. F/W2006 fashion show video has sound thought.
The new Louboutins for SS2007 are out. Here are my favourites This shoe is called Cosette which is funny because I’m giving Les Miserables(the book) a second go. The first time I got halfway and then lost my copy of the book. I was very pissed, this thing is 1300 pages long. I found another copy but it was months later and I would have to start all over again. So it got delayed a few years.
Some of my favs from Balenciaga’s spring/summer 2007 season. These horrible pictures don’t do the clothing justice.
Gap Press has hit the newsstands. I don’t pay much attention to shows until the Gap Press books come out. I enjoy the experience much more with the magazines. My favourite collections: Balenciaga – I’m loving futurism shit. It’s all about the C3PO leggings, love them. Alexander McQueen – Of course, he can do no wrong in my book Christian Dior – JG took a step back this season and it’s amazing Miu Miu – Loved the pallet and prints Prada – Who cares if there were no pants Comme Des Garcons – The jackets were so incredible Dolce & Gabbana – I totally blew these guys off awhile ago. Boy was I wrong. The runway show was awesome too. God, that runway. images: modeinfo.com, fashionroom.it
Fendi, why! These shoes are from the SS2007 collection. I just don’t get the kitten heel, they look a little unstable to me.
I laughed my ass off when I saw these handbags. That is very clever Mr. Marc Jacobs, I have to give you props for this handbag from the Louis Vuitton Spring 2007 collection. I can’t wait to see this hit the streets and the knockoffs to bound to follow. I wonder how many people will take their own chinese shopping bag and paint the LV logo on it. Check out the full Louis Vuitton Spring 2007 collection. I was suprised, I didn’t hate every piece in the collection. I actually liked some of it. It’s loooong though, freakin’ 55 pieces.
Yay. I’m excited as I got my media pass to L’Oreal Fashion Week confirmed yesterday. Be sure to check blogTO.com for my report from the runways. I really want to see a lot of Tuesdays program but I’m booked with my software quality group TASSQ that day. I can’t decide what to do. sigh
