Best of 2008: Fabulous Fashion Week Shows
2008 spawned a tremendous flurry of fabulous Fashion Week shows. Let's see, there were New York Fall and Spring shows, Milan Fashion Week, Paris Fashion Week, London Fashion Week, and LA Fashion Week. Oh, and don't forget all of the ravishing Resort and Pre-Fall collections.
Fab Face: Amanda Laine
I've been waiting for months to hear who the winner of V Magazine's V A Model! search is, and that day has come — it's Amanda Laine.
That name may not mean much to you now, but it will in the near future.
Celebrity Style: Mischa Barton
It makes me so happy to see Mischa Barton dressing Fab again. At Paris Fashion Week, the actress partied at Lou Doillon's party for Lee Cooper in a feminine purple, off-shoulder dress. Her pink satin Stella McCartney pumps add to the girlie vibe and provide some overall fanciness.
Le Smoking at Hermès Fall 2008: Love It or Hate It?
Naughty Natasha Poly. Or shall I say naughty Jean Paul Gaultier for having his model smoke on the Hermès runway! I'm not so intrigued by the clothes, but I am drawn in by what's happening all around.
Paris Fashion Week, Fall 2008: Chloe
After two seasons of bringing his own point of view to the house of Chloe, Paolo Melim Andersson delved back into the archives. Back to the floral-printed chiffon dresses when Karl Lagerfeld designed for the house in the '70s, and back to the floaty embroidery of Phoebe Philo earlier this decade.
Amidst a sea of navy, tufts of fur, sheer tunics, blazers, and riveted halter dresses were punctuated with ivory, teal, violet, and royal blue.
Who Wore It Better? Black Ruched Fendi Dress
Paris Fashion Week has come to an end (tear). Jessica Alba attended Fendi's fashion show in the same black ruched dress that Eva Mendes wore back in January. Eva went bare legged while Jessica wore tights.
Freaky or Fabulous? Mariacarla Boscono Gone Goth
Freaky or fabulous, that is the question my Fabbies . . .
Paris Fashion Week, Fall 2008: Giambattista Valli
The river runneth red at Giambattista Valli. Blood red. Billowing red evening gowns, protruding red crepe necklines, toweringly high red heels, and even a red fox fur cocoon coat were all flowing.
Welcoming Karl With Folded Arms
Folded arms are usually associated with nonchalance and/or moodiness.
While it was somewhat surprising at first glance, it's not entirely shocking that Karl Lagerfeld had the models for his Fall '08 collection walk down the runway with folded arms. It's ironic that the robot-like designer was the one to encourage human qualities in his models.
Paris Fashion Week, Fall 2008: Chanel
The house of Chanel has gone back to its roots. The carousel-ignited runway was awash with varicolored tweeds, black, denim, chains, and knits — quintessential Chanel. And there were all shades and treatments of Karl's favorite color: black tweed, black leather, black knits, black stockings, black jeweled berets.
