Paris Fashion Week Spring 2008 – Chanel

I like a lot of stuff that people would find ugly, but man Chanel was so damn ugly and tacky. This denim is just wrong, wrong, wrong. I’m sorry Karl, but only Irene can make a denim swimsuit look good. See the entire collection. You talk about not retiring Karl, but maybe you should reconsider. Why the hell is your own line good this season? I don’t get it. images: thefashionspot.com

NYC Fashion Week Spring 2008 people watching

So I saw some interesting people during my trip 1. Demi Moore – she is flawless. It’s kinda disgusting really. However, she was really nice to people. 2. Jenna Jameson – It was extremely weird, I saw her at the hotel. She’s really tiny and duck faced, ugh. 3. Anna Wintour – I saw her entering Thakoon. First knocked off my list. 4. Andre Leon Talley – He’s massive. 2nd knocked off my list 5. Carine Roitfeld – she is my style hero, only that woman can make a grey tshirt look amazing, paired with a balenciaga skirt and sky-high heels. I saw her outside of Proenza. She was the 3rd. Carine in Alaia outside of Phi I got a picture taken with Hillary Alexander (I love her!), she’s was so nice and damn personable. I didn’t get to see Anna Piaggi, who knows if she even was in New York. There were a lot of celebrities at the shows I attended, I didn’t notice them though. images: thefashionspot.com, me

The midriff is coming back, God please no!

I’ve noticed a few runways shows for Spring 2008 that have featured the dreaded midriff. I saw some midriff action at Doo Ri. I was hoping that it was just one of those random things, but it seems to be gathering steam. Perhaps it won’t be a full blow trend for Spring 2008 (and god I hope so), but I can see a return to it in Spring 2009.
