Badgley Mishcka Fall '09: Recession? What Recession?
"We just did pretty clothes that people want to wear," says James Mischka. In other words, plenty of red carpet pretty and the usual dash of glitzy bizarre. Play starlet, after the jump. More »

Fashion Show: Badgley Mischka
20 years into their collaboration, Mark Badgley and James Mischka are still turning heads with their commitment to pure glam. While the current collection kept the voltage high, the gowns on parade skewed a bit lighter and rather less sparkly than in the past - albeit still with a serious emphasis on 1980s excess. The parade of impeccably-groomed models embodied flawless glitz and sported looks that made no bones about the jet-setting lifestyles of the clothing's intended audiences. It's good to see these red carpet fixtures (the gowns, not the guys) keeping the flame alive. Click on the image at left to see the gallery. More »

Suddenly, Disney Bridal Doesn't Look So Bad
The latest season of bridal shows began on Friday, and already we are mildly concerned with what we see. While really big name Badgley Mischka is, um, one of the really biggest names in this market, I found the whole collection to be 1) ugly 2) dated and 3) kitschy. Seriously, the Disney bridal dresses looked better than this shit. Monique Lhuillier, who is what Vera Wang was 10 years ago (aka the choice of "cool" brides who don't have to worry about money), offered a much better showing, her looks markedly sophisticated and tasteful and "modern' on the whole. Maybe it was just the choice of models, but something about it, though, left me with a funny taste of "child bride" in my mouth. The collections for your review, after the jump. More »

Fashion Show
Mark Badgley and James Mischka started their eponymous line in 1988, and they've been together (personally and professionally) ever since. Badgley Mischka designs are known for being unapologetically girly, glamorous, red-carpet friendly and plain-old pretty. Not every Fall 2008 look this morning was a winner, but if you like sparkly silver party dresses, chic black column gowns and a smattering of leopard print, you'll be happy. An annotated 10-image gallery begins below. More »

The (Boozy) Bride Wore White: Planning Jenna Bush's Wedding
So, Jenna Bush is getting married this spring (which is a totally gross, opportunistic way to distract the American public from the war, btw) and her mama, Laura, has commissioned the biggest names in American fashion to submit sketches for her darling daughter's big day. (Think Jenna will get sauced at the reception?) After the jump, check out sketches of the contenders, with comments, suggestions and (not so) gentle urgings. Here stumbles the bride! More »

Bridesmaids Dresses Will Always Be Bad
Though most don't know costume designer Catherine Thomas by name, they are no doubt familiar some of the iconographic cinematic looks she has created (Uma Thurman's yellow leather jumpsuit in Kill Bill; Meryl Streep's Little House-goes-Dolly Parton garb in A Prairie Home Companion). But now Thomas created a number of looks that no self-respecting person would ever want to be associated with: The ugliest, tackiest, trashiest bridesmaids dresses imaginable, part of Katherine Heigl's costumes in 27 Dresses, which opens next Friday. Thomas' favorite? A Gone With the Wind inspired frock, compete with hoop skirt, bonnet, and parasol: "I think that was a combination of both someone from the South and a huge 'Gone With the Wind' fan and Vivien Leigh fan who had this fantasy since she was a little girl to be married in that scenario." Ha! What is it about being able to force your friends into matching dresses and denying them any stake in the decision that so warps women's minds?

Badgley Mischka just showed its bridal line. And frankly, it was a little meh! At least BM ready-to-wear, though monotonous, has, well, color. But the old-school white frocks on display on the latest BM runway weren't anything millions of soon-to-be-marrieds haven't seen in cheap bridal mags over the past decade. Though we must say, some the looks did have a certain, drag-queen-esque aesthetic. Even more reason to legalize gay marriage! Gallery below. (All images via AP.) More » -
