Eyeballs and Spiders and Smokes, Oh My! Jean-Charles de Castelbajac's Eccentric Fascinators

Jaime Richards — Tue, 08 Mar 2011 14:14:00 PST

At Jean-Charles de Castelbajac's Paris show, models wore retro-red lipstick and dark, obviously-drawn-in, highly-arched brows. And to finish off the look, a few even wore eccentric fascinators featuring some rather fierce black and white imagery. Seeing that it's Mardi Gras, afterall, I can't think of a more perfect day to showcase such a quirky concept. See more pictures of Castelbajac's wildly wacky headpiece creations now.

Marie Antoinette Gets a Modern Cosmetic Surgery Makeover

At an exhibition in Paris this month, designer Jean-Charles de Castelbajac has created likenesses of what Marie Antoinette might look like if she were a modern woman fond of plastic surgery. Ms. "let them eat cake" was known for being one of the most image conscious women of her time, after all.

The three busts of the queen that Castelbajac developed are differentiated by where Marie might have had her plastic surgery done, since different "looks" are popular in different places. For the purposes of his exhibition he picked American, Russian, and French cosmetic surgery styles. Check out the busts below and tell us whether or not you think the actual queen would have gone for any of these procedures.

Paris Fashion Week is no stranger to the avant-garde. In the fashion capital, the crazier, the better. But some designers take the concept of fashion-forward to a whole new level. Comme des Garçons, Maison Martin Margiela, Manish Arora (who often provides costumes for Katy Perry), and Viktor & Rolf are some of the orchestrators who liven up the Parisian catwalks. Face paint, fuzzy helmets, and antlers (left) are just the tip of the iceberg. Let the kookiness begin.
