Another Video About Paris Fashion Week

 I love Nast Magazine! I can't say that enough. Now the perfectly French magazine shows us how fashion's insiders dress for the Paris shows. Oh and I am still typing without an A key. It am getting impatient waiting for my key to come in the mail. Thank God for my new netbook. This is torture!

Now this is how you do a fashion show.

Is Ungaro Moving On?

According to The Cut blog:

Lindsay Lohan did not attend the fall 2010 Emanuel Ungaro show in Paris this morning. "She's not involved in this collection," Ungaro owner Asim Abdullah told WWD backstage. Lohan has been attending shows and events in Paris, however. Last night, while the Oscars went on, she turned up at the launch party for Turkish Vogue.

Well it looks like they are quietly trying to move away from the Mean Girls actress. I don't blame them. The last collection was more than a hot mess...it was an explosion of terribleness, and that was putting it mildly. The other designer on the team, Estrella Archs, showed a collection that was slightly better,but still not that great according to some. I actually think that even though it isn't the best comeback from  a disastrous last season, it is better than the heart-shaped pasties of Spring 2010.

Before I get into fashion week, I just want to say, please go see Alice in Wonderland. It was a very good movie. While watching the movie, please don't focus on the book version because it follows the book, but it doesn't follow the book. I don't want to give too much away, but you will understand what I am talking about once you see the film. Also if you are a super geek like me, you will be uber happy to know that the preview for the new Tron movie, Tron Legacy is shown during the previews.

Paris Fashion Week has been really impressive. I expected it to be this way though. I love Paris Fashion Week. I rarely find bad clothes or bad collections during the fashion week there. I have been perusing the style.com and other sites looking for pictures of the collections, and they have been amazing. John Galliano created another equestrian themed collection for Christian Dior. It feels like a more ready to wear version than the last couture show, but that doesn't mean it is more toned down. Issey Miyake was very United Colors of Benetton looking to me. The colorful coats and knitwear look very exciting for fall. Lanvin was very dark and featured amazing draping and tight silhouettes. Roland Mouret was very structural, but I'm not surprised. The way is shapes his fabrics makes it look like geometry is his best friend. Yohji Yamamoto showed some of the best knitwear and menswear on the planet. This is what Alexander Wang should have showed. Tim Hamilton's collection was small, but very wearable. It reminded me of something Karen O would wear on her day off. Photos from Style.com. I hope you all have a great weekend. I am now going to attempt to write an essay on Rick Owens with a broken A key.

Hello Paris!

Paris Fashion Week has begun and I am all kinds of excited.  The majority of the looks are sooo good. I can't wait to show you. Very sophisticated and chic just like what you expect Paris to be. Dries Van Noten took a page out of the Prada book and showed a Mad Men inspired collection. Rue du Mail brought some fierceness to fashion week. Rochas was inspired by the 60s movie Cactus Flower. I could definitely see the 60s in the look. Balenciaga still showed the crazy tribal colors thing, but the clothes are more wearble this season. They aren't all boxy like seasons past. Manish Arora was beautiful and colorful. It was really crazy looking but in a good way. I like that Christopher is trying to finally , yes finally, take Balmain in a new direction, but he is still showing those boxy dresses that make even the hottest model look like an inverted isosceles triangle. Everybody loved Rick Owens. Well I did not. I was not into the sleeping bag look. The only person that does the sleeping bag look right is Norma Komali. Rick, you have failed me, and I am sad. :( Pictures are from Style.com and The Fashion Spot.
