Splashes of all kinds of gold from white, light metallic to bright olympic top level medal has hit NYC hard. From a Marc by MJ striped lurex dress to a fanned velvet puff dress, to Karen Walker pointed booties all shades of gold have lifted the somewhat dark and sombre Winter colour palette [...]
Monsieur Marc Jacobs
Marc J may live in Paris full time but his heart is still loving NY. After many a black runway reminding us of the doom and gloom it was great to be smacked in the face with an eighties memorabilia colour palette. Big shoulders, big jewels big sunglasses and big attitude sat on [...]
The DUKE Spirit
The McQ for Target range is coming out in March…14 days to go… Alexander McQueen has been a secret fan of The Duke Spirit for quite some time now. What better chance to become the ultimate groupie than choosing Liela Moss- the lead singer as muse to the entire range. McQueen wanted to do [...]

Why wouldn’t the eternal Kaiser of fashion continue to choose more mature models as the rest of the world goes pre pubescent.

They included a two-page spread of a woman wearing a hat and standing under three butchered cattle heads with their tongues hanging out. Quite outstanding in those days to then be hired [...]
Prom Corsages. My year twelve date picked me up and it was not exactly romantic as we were best friends. Later at the prom he came up to me and threw a corsage my way. His mum had bought it, and when he on purpose forgot the white flower she drove it up to the [...]
