		<description><![CDATA[While there&#8217;s serious doubt as to whether Mario Testino and his ilk have anything to worry about, it&#8217;s safe to say that Instagramm is making amateur photographers look real good (or as close to good as you can get without buying a $5,000 camera). Which is why when you first look at Phillip Lim&#8217;s social media cum app intense ad campaign you have to wonder exactly what the influence was fashion or Instagramm? PS: The collection is a must have this season.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Paris Haute Couture shows are going on right now and one immediate thing came to mind when I saw the Valentino show it feels somewhat closed off. Yes it&#8217;s an elegant experiment with this overriding theme of walled off intricately detailed embroidered (and as Cathy Horyn of the New York Times put it) &#8220;curled ironwork&#8221;. Horyn is uncharacteristically forgiving to designers Pierpaolo Piccioli and Maria Grazia Chiuri (though she still managed recall their tumultuous beginning at the fashion house). What is it about this collection that stirs the pot? It&#8217;s that obvious image of large foreboding gates that wall off something that might tempt. It&#8217;s not ethereal, it&#8217;s grounded in the present world. But there&#8217;s no telling if this is a statement or simply a design decision. With haute couture we&#8217;re always supposed to believe it&#8217;s the former and not the latter. Whatever it is, this closed-off, embroidered Valentino collection, is beautiful and shows what is looking like a design resurgence for the company.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re featuring Duro Olowu later on this week on the magazine side of Papierdoll, but I received this e-mail today and read it in it&#8217;s entirety about twice. The first thing I thought to myself was, self, someone at JC Penney sold their sold to the devil to get Olowu. Anne-Marie our lead photog in London, will attest that this is a coup as his footprint overseas is much larger than his presence here. But that in itself might be the answer, expose Duro&#8217;s collection to an American audience via JC Penney, a trojan horse diffusion line of sorts. Here&#8217;s an excerpt from the release: The exclusive collection, Duro Olowu for jcp, features apparel and accessories for women, as well as home goods, including dinnerware, stationery and décor items. Ranging in price from $10 to $100, Duro Olowu for jcp will be available this spring from March through May 2013 at most jcpenney stores and jcp.com. “I am proud to partner with jcpenney to create and launch this new seasonal collection,” said designer Duro Olowu. “Working with jcpenney has allowed me to merge my vision of style and quality with their affordability, resulting in a line that is stylish, beautifully [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If while looking through the photos of Ann Demeulemeester&#8217;s collection you&#8217;re reminded of Flash Gordon or your conjuring up images of Ming the Merciless, you&#8217;re not far off. Obscure references to 1980 film&#8217;s aside, Ann Demeulmeester&#8217;s Spring/Summer 2013 collection is voluminous in parts of outfits that are usually spare, and spare in parts of outfits that are usually voluminous. An example are the near floor-length sleeves that consisted primarily of wispy, light, airy fabric but were in excess, because&#8230;they were near the floor. Under normal circumstances this would seem bulky and impossible to pull off, but this is Ann Demeulemeester and in keeping with the Ann Demeulmeester aesthetic, this comes off effortlessly. Even more from the collection shimmery calf-length pants, voluminous gowns that mimicked 2012 future outfits that were imagined in 1980, hence the Flash Gordon reference. I will say this, Anne Demeulemeester&#8217;s Spring/Summer 2013 collection is one of my favorites of the fashion week season because the collection looks as impossible to wear in person as it does in photos (floor length sleeves), but it *is* possible, and easy at that. Pulling this off, is no simple feat. It&#8217;s genius.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[No she&#8217;s not simply a bridal designer anymore. Hasn&#8217;t been &#8220;just that&#8221; for years. And maybe she never was just that to be perfectly honest. Anne Valerie Hash&#8217;s Spring/Summer 2013 collection is simply stated a otherworldly spiritual adventure outside of the body. Hash&#8217;s collection featured sharp lines at the beginning with straight edge cuts at the shoulders, a jacket with a beautifully soft floral print on the lapels contrasted again with the sharp lines and satin, did I mention satin. The fabric was everywhere and played as the foil to that ethereal fairy-like theme. Because while many of the pieces from the collection included chiffon and featured a playful-like demeanor, the satin, and the lines were serious. Hash&#8217;s Spring/Summer 2013 collection seems to be one big contradiction, which in itself is more than fine, it&#8217;s good.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ever since Gareth Pugh left London&#8217;s Fashion Week scene, London has not been the same. Yes there are still the vagaries of the London scene like a Charlie Le Mindu or just something completely off beat. But with Pugh in London, you could always expect the unknown. He&#8217;s brought that to Paris, just by turning it up a notch, or two, or three. Eric Wilson of the New York Times stated that watching Pugh&#8217;s collection over six years is like &#8220;watching a “True Blood” marathon. A vampire’s lust for the goth aesthetic is a given in Mr. Pugh’s eternally watchable world of cobweb skirts and leather dusters.&#8221; Sure, that&#8217;s one takeaway. But here&#8217;s another: look past the brooding makeup and the goth pageantry and you&#8217;ll find a beautiful aesthetic with an edge. It&#8217;s to the left and deservedly so. Pugh put together for this season a series of gowns that provided the true futuristic heir to 15th century looks. If you could imagine time-warping from 15th century Spain into this century and ignore all the fashion turns in-between, that&#8217;s exactly what I saw and imagined. Pugh flirted with flaring at the waist, but brought it back in with a rigid [...]]]></description>

Monika Chiang&#8217;s collection for Spring 2013 is the epitome of that thought process.

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s hard to miss designer Michael Angel&#8217;s Fall 2012 collection. Filled with strong forceful prints, even more rigid lines, a mastery of color selection and an attention to detail nearly unparalleled in fashion. We saw this in the Spring 2012 collection and this is more so the case in the Fall 2012 collection. An evolution of sorts, Michael Angel went from sirens-loud in Spring, to muted attention-getting in the Fall. Every color, every detail is intelligently placed with rhyme and reason outlined but not overstated. You know why the jacket below is cut just above the waist, it works well and is effortless on the female form. It&#8217;s exacting to the millimeter. The trousers provide just enough room to be loose in the right place (just above the knee and straight through the calf) without being outlandishly big. The shoulder-less dress is sexy just enough, but also serious. It&#8217;s adult without being boring. There&#8217;s anticipation for a Spring 2013 collection and the hope is it continues this designer&#8217;s evolution. What&#8217;s next is unpredictable, but more than welcome.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[images from Roland Santana Autumn/Winter 2012 collection Designers nowadays need every help they can get to break through the din of noise that is the crowded season of collection debuts, economic downturns and celebrity wear. It&#8217;s not for the faint of heart. Rolando Santana has piggybacked the debut of two new shoes from Manolo Blahnik and transformed it into one of the reasons you should see his collection. Truth be told, seeing anything new from Manolo is an excellent reason to view the show. But I would contend that Santana&#8217;s past collections bode well for his next showing to stand well on its own. Take for example his Autum/Winter 2012 collection. It&#8217;s filled with creative use of furs, skirts, metallic dresses and shear fabrics that get attention without being gimmicky. I&#8217;ve had the kool-aid and I&#8217;m a believer that Santana&#8217;s Spring/Summer 2013 collection is going to be well worth the viewing. He debuts the collection Monday, September 10th at an invite only show during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nothing like seeing the back of heads and a bit of the runway at BCBG. It&#8217;s almost like being in the stands in nosebleed. Reviews for the show and detailed shots from Kevin Kane coming up later today. But overall this is another strong collection for the BCBG line and will get some thoughts going on what was good and not so good later today. Meantime checkout videos and some of these shots home made with love:]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Glowing review posted for Mackage&#8217;s Spring Summer 2012 collection. Though a bit pugnacious as to whether it&#8217;s a feminine or skews to the more masculine side. The compromise would simply say it&#8217;s a mixture of both, Merelda McKinnon thinks differently and in her review she describes it as: feminine with a touch of bold in the form of strong defined sculptured lines Impressively, the designers didn&#8217;t alter their color palette to bring a light spring-like feeling to the collection, but it still avoided melancholy feeling normally found in stronger/darker colored collections. See the full review here. See the photos here.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You know the story of Russian spy Anna Chapman correct? She was living in the New York area in the United States essentially spying on the US. The American government stated that nothing of value was lost. In the case of Anna Chapman, American men may have felt different about the value thing. In any case, Chapman was celebrated on her return to Russia with parades, news stories and now a spread in Maxim magazine. The question is&#8230; what is she wearing? It looks like the set is some sort of Agent Provocateur piece. Further investigations may be necessary, but the whole edgy spy thing might ring true for Agent Provocateur if a spy is indeed wearing it. Confirmations may be necessary.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ll never look a gift horse in the mouth. Whether it&#8217;s Lanvin from 5 years ago or Lanvin now, I&#8217;ll take it as I can get it. But a question begs answering&#8230;is the H&#038;M collection new or is it a mish-mash of items from the earlier collections. Again, I&#8217;d like to restate that I wouldn&#8217;t care either way, but if someone from the Fashion Spot notices you can be reasonably assured that there is some measure of merit to the argument. So what is it Lanvin? Is it new or vintage re-done? P.S. The Lanvin collection for H&#038;M drops November 22.]]></description>

The thing is let&#8217;s say she is quote/unquote &#8220;hot&#8221;, does it make her a political fashion icon? It&#8217;s not like she&#8217;s been in Vogue&#8230;wait&#8230; she has. In Vogue&#8217;s November issue she strikes a pose for photographer Norma Jean Roy, in the magazine&#8217;s piece entitled &#8220;In Hillary&#8217;s Footsteps.&#8221; Gillibrand replaced New York senator Hillary Clinton and is cruising to a victory come November 2. The fashionable senator is being positioned as a powerful member of a lessened democratic majority post November 2. Gillibrand is shown balancing work life and family life in the series of photos, while also running a campaign. The Vogue issue is on newsstands now.]]></description>

Watching Oprah a couple of weeks back, viewers saw Williams declare her new passion&#8230;nails. She&#8217;s studying to be a nail technician and is planning on opening nail salons nationwide. Serena Williams has also signed a deal with nail polish company OPI to provide a line of nail polish inspired by her. It gets better, the nail polish crackles upon application as seen below:]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I salute you girls of London. For you are truly blessed to have the House of Fraser at your fingertips. Especially with their new line of Kurt Geiger shoes going on sale today. You will have a wonderful fall wearing his Eden high heel red patent pump shoe. You will be especially warm wearing his Williamsburgh boot. Oh some may pass it off as a fad, but I know you will be ever so happy wearing these shoes with pride knowing that you paid a whole lot less than what we might end up paying here in Hong Kong for the real thing, or those in the states pay for overpriced shoes. So be happy girls of London. Today is your day (and this season may be yours as well). Source: Papierdoll]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oh I would carry out all types of threats to wear this number from Oscar De La Renta. Anna Hathaway, watch your back!! But seriously, she looked rather stunning in this ensemble from De La Renta with accompanying bag by troubled designer Jimmy Choo. Vogue super photographer Mario Testino shot this for the Vogue November issue. Far be it from me to question the infinite wisdom of the fashion editors at Vogue but the menswear seemed somewhat lacking and unimaginative. Tuxes and tophats were the best they could do for a formal? The women are elegantly dressed enjoying a high society evening and the men look as if they are going to the prom. But again, I dare not question the genius of the folks at Vogue. Hathaway herself was styled gorgeously wearing the aforementioned Oscar De La Renta, Isaac Mizrahi,Carolina Herrera and Marchesa. The November issue hits newsstands now.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Look, Papierdoll is based in Brooklyn. All the cool shops that are too cool for Manhattan are in Brooklyn. It only makes sense that Barney&#8217;s Co-op comes to Brooklyn. Brooklyn is home to all that is edgy. The boro practically created fashion back in 1648 when it was first incorporated. People are naming their children after this boro. I&#8217;ve even seen a celeb or two sneak into Junior&#8217;s in sunglasses for fear of being spotted by their trainer buying a cheesecake. So when you ask why Brooklyn for Barney&#8217;s? The answer is simple fuggedaboutit!! what: Barney&#8217;s where: Atlantic Center, Brooklyn, NY via the NYPOST]]></description>

She was the first Asian to head the French design house Scherer, made beautiful wedding dresses and designed for the likes of Bill Clinton, Prince Charles, Moulin Rouge, Nicole Kidman. Beri has shown during Paris fashion week and is also an accomplished author. (ed note: Is there anything she hasn&#8217;t done?)

Slimane&#8217;s love though is purely art-form, and culture. His recent manifestation of this love is in a short film aptly titled &#8220;I Love USA&#8221;. In it we&#8217;re greeted with a cello playing man in a wolf-chimera mask who is accompanied by a young cheerleader swaying to the pom pomming away to the beat of the cellist. (I can&#8217;t believe I just typed that) Slimane, who spends a majority of his time in Los Angeles is touting this new video on TheCorner.com and his namesake website hedislimane.com]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If anyone doubted John Paul Gaultier&#8217;s dedication to creating beautiful pieces for all women, Beth Ditto&#8217;s appearance should assuage those doubts. Gaultier created a couple of pieces for the size 28 woman in us all and Ditto proudly wore it. Ditto of rock group, The Gossip, fame made her appearance during Gaultier&#8217;s Paris show in textured pink floral corset, fishnet stockings and black mary janes. Although many appreciated Gaultier&#8217;s show and homage to plus sized models some wanted more shows dedicated to the everyday woman (particularly the size 10s as opposed to the 0s). &#8220;Instead of a fuss being made about a few cause célèbre exceptions on the catwalk, what I&#8217;d really like instead is for most models to be a [UK] size 10 rather than a size 8,&#8221; British Vogue editor Alexandra Shulman, told The Guardian.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Phoebe Philo created a collection for Céline that was arguably more wearable than most designers during Paris fashion week. This was no small feat considering the complexity of some of the pieces that comprised the collection. She played with geometric shapes and the feminine form creating a silhouette that was both rigid in construction and easily adaptable for ready to wear. Perhaps that&#8217;s the genius behind Philo&#8217;s collection for Céline, example, a handwoven coat that was at one time the standard in French fashion but today is a rarity because of how intricately it was sewn together. Her collection was minimalist, modern and urban all in one.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Imagine silk layers and tulle mixed with a vibrant mashing of colors, dresses and coats that give a visage of fur only much lighter and with a flow all its own. Would that interest you? If you said yes, then you&#8217;re officially a fan of Martine Sitbon&#8217;s experiment via Rue du Mail for the Spring/Summer 2011 season. This wasn&#8217;t just an arbitrary offering of light fabrics mixed with Spring colors. Sitbon seemed deliberate in putting together a collection that flowed extremely well both in pacing and in execution. Part of the Rue du Mail collection consisted of a handful of chic prints and patterns that never repeated from piece to piece. Tedium never played a role in the display and while there were strong colors like black, red and white it wasn&#8217;t overpowering because it was placed under a sheer top or dress that made it sleek and sexy. This was another uncommonly wearable collection during Paris Fashion week that is leaving me to wonder if there is a movement going on in the RTW industry in Paris.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Pierre Cardin dished a mouthful to WWD stating among other things that his licensees are producing also-ran designs and his mens collection leaves much to be desired. We&#8217;re paraphrasing here, but the legendary designer talked shop on a variety of things including Lady Gaga, his approach to design in the 60s, the state of his licensees and a smattering of other topics. The designer also let slip that he would be holding a show in New York to reintroduce his name to younger generations. The 88 year old Cardin was a major force in the 60s and 70s with his futuristic collection and sharp lines. He&#8217;s also known as a licensing genius placing his Pierre Cardin name on everything from suits, ties to Pierre Cardin sardines. With over 800 Pierre Cardin licenses around the globe, his name is synonymous with all things high end fashion. Cardin (or rather his licensees) showed his Spring/Summer 2011 collection for the first time in 10 years this week during Paris fashion week. Reviews for Paris Fashion week can currently be found on our sister site Papierblog. (AP Photo/Jacques Brinon)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Tommaso Aquilano and Roberto Rimondi have been putting on a show for their namesake collection since 2009 though they might argue that the show was in the making long before that time. This season they showed that it might actually be the case that this collection was long in coming. A collection that hearkened back to the days of Studio 54 mixed with a progressive chic dominated the runway and was all the more impressive than their previous iteration earlier in the week. Aquilano.Rimondi&#8217;s Spring/Summer 2011 collection consisted of a large smattering of colors, prints and slits that sat uncomfortably high for the conservative but just right for the daring rocker. Milan&#8217;s fashion week has been dominated with color and flash as evidenced by Cavalli, Armani and to some extent Prada. Aquilano.Rimondi was no different and seemed more enthusiastic in their approach. Using a kaleidoscopic effect on pencil skirts and the aformentioned thigh-high slits, Aquilano.Rimondi seemed to notify Milan that they were to be taken seriously&#8230;fun.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Before excess, pomp, circumstance et al hit Paris for the grandaddy of all fashion weeks something different took place yesterday. The ethical fashion world went on display with the largest assortment of eco-designers and sustainable fashion under one roof. This smattering of top fashion designers with Mother Earth in mind hit with organic cotton and silk fabrics under the Docks en Seine roof at the French fashion institute. Some of the designers on display at this event include La Queue de Chat, Diffus (from Denmark), and Terra Plana (England) that had on display recycled leather shoes. The Ethical Fashion Show is in its seventh year in Paris and looks to continue ever stronger. For more information visit the Ethical fashion show website at here.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Paris Hilton was refused entry to Japan yesterday. The hotel heiress was due to enter Japan to promote her namesake fashion line when she was told in no uncertain terms she wasn&#8217;t allowed to visit the country. Questioned for over 6 hours over a span of two days at Narita airport, Hilton was unceremoniously booted as a result of her drug charges. Paris Hilton&#8217;s row with Japanese authorities stemmed from recent legal entanglements having to do with drug possession. Japan prohibits anyone convicted of drug charges to enter into the country. Paris Hilton was set to promote her fashion and perfume line launched several years ago that&#8217;s seen a modicum of success in the American markets. Paris Hilton&#8217;s publicist states that she&#8217;s going to reschedule the visit to Japan, but Japanese authorities made no mention of whether she would be welcomed into the country. Hilton tweeted the news to her fans, &#8220;Going home now,&#8221; she tweeted. &#8220;So disappointed to miss my fans in Asia. I promise to come back soon. I love you all! Love Paris xoxo.&#8221;]]></description>

It was pretty much an overcast day until about 1 hour after her show when the skies opened up and a torrential downpour started. Prior to that, Malandrino was able to show a startlingly refreshing collection with a mix of animal print, silk and leather macrame&#8217; in the open air. Great reviews flowed across the board.

		<description><![CDATA[Yeah, I passed by the Chanel store to escape the madness that was Bloomingdales and Macy&#8217;s in Midtown. But guess what. It was even more mad downtown. Here&#8217;s photographic proof that Fashion&#8217;s Night Out is starting to rival Fashion Week itself (yes it&#8217;s hyperbole, but not by much).]]></description>

The former Project Runway finalist apparently had a strong showing as positive reviews are coming from many writers including Roxanne&#8217;s Triptyqu3.com (french), New York Magazine and Papierdoll. If this is any indication, it looks like Vosovic has a strong future. Look to add one or two pieces to your wardrobe this Spring.]]></description>
