Jean Shrimpton

Jean Shrimpton has always been one of my all time favorite models.  Infamous supermodels from the 90's such as Cindy, Naomi, Claudia, and Linda,  may be the most recognizable and iconic; however, I think the models of the 60's have a far more interesting look. Oversized hair, untamed brows, and innocent doe eyes that radiate an unparalleled sense of femininity completely capture my attention like the italian women in giallo movies. What is even more interesting is that these models would represent the decade's sexual revolution. Jean was more of a demure type, like Audrey, which is the very trait that makes her so alluring! 

Gareth Pugh Spring 2013 RTW

When it comes to Gareth Pugh, you never know what you are in for. The only thing that you can be sure of is that the designs will be out of this world in the most ghoulish of ways. These looks are beautiful in a morbid way (which I love!) Each design reminds me of costumes I would see in Hellraiser or some other terrifying horror movie. 

Tommy Ton's Fashion Week Street Style

As exciting as fashion week's runway shows may be, what excites me more is the coverage of street style that surrounds the shows from Australia, to New York, Paris, and Milan. After all, what fashion enthusiasts wear to the shows is a more creative showcase of style, not to mention an excellent indicator of the trends to come. No one captures street style better than Tommy Ton, and it is hard to say what is more impressive--the clothes, or the photographs.

Roberto Cavalli Spring 2013 RTW

White has played a serious role in the latest runway shows. Black will always reign as the almighty color that flatters all figures, but white has become a very close second. These looks remind me of something the "band-aids" would wear in Almost Famous--rockstar meets bohemian. As the show went on, the silk prints grew more sexy and feminine with frame hugging slips, and delicate gowns with high slits. Ultimately, this collection incorporated a little bit of everything.
