You Have Got to be Kidding Me!

I can't believe my eyes!! WWD is reporting that John Galliano was just booted from his eponymous label. It was only a matter of time before the anti semitic-mouthed designer was booted from his own label, given that Dior fired him two months ago. This is the end of an era, ladies and gays. I will never again look forward to another Dior presentation or a Galliano spectacle. The amount of love and passion he put into his art will never be forgotten, and can never be surpassed. I hope he can recover so in the near future he can design again. I doubt he will come back to Dior, and no one else will hire him unless some serious ass kissing is done. Either way, unless time passes and wounds heal, putting him on the face of anything would be a terrible idea for a plethora of reasons.  



Still--how can you fire one of the most respected designers of our time? He is so Dior, so haute couture, so avant garde, so ridiculously talented that no one can ever ever replace him at any of the labels he leaves behind. Not even Tisci or Philo can fill his shoes.

Spring 2011 Haute Couture Blows Our Mind!

I am at a loss for words. Galliano always brings it with Dior..whether couture or any regular season, his shows are always on the top of our list. This Couture season was not an exception, with beautiful hair and makeup complimenting the extravagant ensembles. We are all too familiar with colored eyebrows, but the red we have never seen before! I'm also very happy Karlie opened his show. She is the luckiest teenager!

Here are some of our favorites from the house.
 

Fucking Fabu.


Okay, let's talk Chanel. Dyyying! I love everything Chanel because I love everything Lagerfeld, but some pieces in this collection he may have...skimped on. Love the beaded details, though...to die! The cut of the pants is so Karl, and the shoes are mesmerizing. Wasn't feeling the entire collection, but a lot of the pieces were great, traditional Chanel. They had some ugly models, though, no?

Next on the list, Givenchy.  They're really missing McQueen, aren't they? Everything is so similar, but not surprising since he used to design for them many many years ago. Expect to see Gaga in one of these very soon. I do have to admit--I am very happy in the direction Givenchy is heading in. They are inventing and creating new trends, not just following them. Loving it!



Armani Prive was great, but not worthy of showing pictures, it was the same old thing. Next round!
