I don't know how to feel about this 80s-ruffle hybrid trend. I don't think I can pull off walking around town looking like I stepped out of Madonna's La Isla Bonita video.
@badmutha: You know what, though? For the sake of some of these dresses and color schemes, I might go ahead and let them bust out with the repeated "Uh oh" motif.
The news about Fisher made me sad. I am beyond excited about Ford getting back into women's wear. Somewhat off-topic....is Jenna on vacation? Haven't seen her posting in awhile. Just curious.
May I offer you your choice of a wide variety of very attractive shoes that make my feet bleed? One particularly beautiful pair of jewel tone blue flats come complete with my ACTUAL BLOOD staining the back. I have flats and heels. Guaranteed to make you sorry you were ever born.
@GirlyQ is feeling extra lesbionic: I don't know about "rash" but if you're into heel blisters, I have a beautiful pair of black and white lace ballet flats. If you'd rather just have the skin on the back of your heels shorn off, I have the above mentioned jewel tone blues.
I'm actually excited about the Sonia Rykiel/H&M collaboration -- although there's always such a stampede on those designer collections, I doubt I will be able to get my hands on one of her sweaters.
Also hope for non-itchy wool.
@Acefreakly: It just tends to steer towards creating the no-makeup effect. Everything is very matte and neutral. Some of the big sellers in that line are actually a lip balm that has no shine to it and an undereye concealer.
Perhaps stylist Robert Verdi has been denied tickets to fashion shows because the Fashion World doesn’t want the rest of us to realise they actually have gay people working in it, let alone gay men. Or it could just be that he isn’t important enough to warrant one right now. As Heidi says, one moment you're in, the next you're out.
I'm kind of disappointed in Tim Gunn after those Lohan comments. I'm not a huge Lindsay fan, but didn't he just say what a pleasure it was to have her on PR? It just seems kind of below him to talk bad about people.
@katie.scarlett.o'hara: I don't blame him. It comes across harsh but fashion people are always too blunt. Ungaro replaced a talented designer who has trained and worked in the industry for years with a celebrity who is not known for her work ethic. It is really insulting to fashion designers, etc to see this kind of spectacle.
@bitchney: I know they got rid of the designer, but is Lohan replacing him? I thought she had some other, more random role. Like some sort of promoter.
@cate3710: I am sure she won't do more than be late to / blow off meetings and smoke cigarettes. They have a "designer" who will do all of the work while this trainwreck gets the credit. I would expect this from Bebe or something, not at a venerable fashion house.
Just goes to show you how ridic the copyrights on clothing designs can be. Its a goddamn sneaker. New Balance didn't reinvent the wheel with that look.
@bluebears: I don't know - that particular edition is THE iconic New Balance sneaker. And charging $590 for a sneaker deserves some sort of punishment anyway.
@dreamweave: heh. yeah. But if you look at saucony and nike they also have varying throwback designs that look pretty similar as well. There's just not that much to reinvent when it comes to a sneaker.
@bluebears: Well, and it's really hard to get a copyright in a pattern or clothing design - which is why knock offs of fashion are so readily available. I wonder if NB has worked hard to protect this one, giving it some cache on the legal front. Otherwise, it's a color scheme and a fabric choice and I have no doubt the LV one is a crap running shoe.
The women from Go Fug Yourself seemed to be pretty impressed by Victoria Beckham's show, but they admit they're biased. They also didn't talk much about the clothes themselves, though I find it cool that VB talked about each individual dress.

How disappointing.
Stella's always been one of my favorite designers but this is just sad. No. No. NO.

If you liked it then you shoulda put...a wooden bag with it?

Also, the dress in the center is beautiful and looks super comfy.

Furthermore, he does not "rip off" the other designer; he is inspired by him or her.
You've got to take into account the presence of a muse in fluttering golden gauze guiding his hand.
