Style Watch

There have been many times that I would have given an arm and a leg to tell someone to their face, "why?." I just want to know. Just curious. What is the reason behind what they are wearing? What really goes on in the dressing room?? 

Two reasons why: sometimes what you see on the runway shouldn't necessarily be portrayed outside of such a setting. This situation, in particular, is quite frightening. I couldn't figure out how to cover her...top part...so I said screw it. I think we've seen enough on this blog to be prepared for such a situation as criminal as this.

I have no idea who this is, or why she's wearing a see through Rodarte dress. Click here to see the album, and source of image. 

Let's not even talk about the hair or the overly cinched waist.

Can someone please explain this to me? I'm sure she's just a nice girl just trying to make a statement, right? 

Balenciaga at NYFW?

We don't know how we feel about Balenciaga moving their show to the states. Would it take away from PAFW? That is the week everyone anticipates. American brands are great, but Balenciaga belongs in Paris! Would it cheapen the brand to bring them here? Paris is known for its high fashion, high lifestyle, and prestige. The US? Not so much...

Nicolas Ghesquière stated,


“I’m questioning if there is a new way of communicating about a fashion brand. It could be an art proposal, it could be a movie. [The scope] is very open, very large.”

We would love to see a Balenciaga movie in the works, but not so much moving their show. And what was up with putting Gisele as the face of SS 2011? She so doesn't fit the criteria! Disaster in the works, we'll keep you posted!
