Army of Disco Cavewomen at BALMAIN







Christophe Decarnin's visible influence for Balmain was clearly taken from a surplus chain store. Decarnin's army of sleek rail thin models strut the walk with huge-shouldered pads, metal epaulettes military coats, and shredded sequin mini dresses. Tight colors of gold, army green, black and silver tamed a artful military palette. Tattered t-shirts, raggedy loincloths moved to a seventies disco Versace party gone military-esc. Balmain none the less had a huge runway success.

Geometric Graphic-ART



Riccardo Tisci, the Givenchy genius, created quite an awakening at his Spring 2010 show in Paris. Looks from geometric bold prints in black and white, draped layers with graphic jackets with subtle Arabic influences. Tiny kilts, drop crotch harem pants, modernized tutus, his mix of madness was quite a show. Zigzag psychedelic prints with platform wedges blending in the same print covered and wrapped in tulles. He showed goddess dresses in white tulle that told the story of his research of Roman couture.

Bondage Wrap...ouch


Nicholas Kirkwood joined forces with Rodarte, and created an incredible promiscuous bondage wrap boot. The bondage wrap boot basically sums up the whole bondage black leather trend that is sweeping the fashion world. Anything and everything that is S&M has hit the runway this fall 2009.

Lavishly Hard

While wearing such a dramatic studded ring, you can not help but feel a little rebellious... The perfect touch for every day glamour.
shop bazaar:

STUDs on you.



Studs just seem to be making a bigger statement each week in fashion. When is this trend over? I think not yet. After flipping through FRENCH VOGUE today... I think they are here tacked down for a bit. Gold pyramids to silver cones, Studs are taking over. Studded chucks worn by Ms. AGNES, to statement clutch from Jimmy Choo. And Ms. Olsen, always over the top, we will leave it at that.
