Dolce & Gabbana are metallic manic. But I must say, it suits them. They delivered a dazzling production full of blinding dresses, sexy suiting and cosmic beauties. A couple of beauties being the Dolce & Gabbana muses: Gisele (no last name required here) and Monica Bellucci. I have been blinded by these otherworldly creations. You may recall the duo went majorly sci fi for their Spring Read more

Here is one of my all time favorites, inspiring me yet again to be a creative force. Marni is the designer for the thoroughly modern Milanese. Though elements were a bit all over the place, to me that is what makes Marni beautiful. You look at this collection and the clothes look like a canvas. With muted brights, neutrals and white, artsy prints and jeweled accents deliver typical, delightful Read more

Hot stuff! The Fall Roberto Cavalli collection gave me a nice afternoon awakening. There is no doubt as to why Cavalli is a red carpet favorite.... Flowing, sexed up gowns belted at the waist, in addition to a low plunging neckline, are fan worthy. The warm tones made for a happy, sunshiney runway. Opulence was abundant with leather, fur, reptile skins, silk and leopard prints. An awesome art Read more

Jil Sander devotees are sharp suiters. Streamlined, clean concepts are always expected and for Fall designer Raf Simons delivered. Understated yes, boring no. Really, when I viewed this collection it had a calming effect. Necklines were experimental: boatneck, draped, one shoulder and the house's signature turtleneck. Precise daywear in muted colors, with a splash of grape, white and what I Read more

Why I declare: Miucca Prada has gone eco. Her bewildering Fall collection is hard to explain, as Prada often is, so I will do my best. She declares this collection was "something simple but strange." Indeed! I saw eco in raw hems, a puckering effect in skirts and dresses (that I'm not a bit fan of) and her bold greens and oranges. The green even looked like - dare I say - Astroturf. The dropped Read more

I absolutely adored Burberry Prorsum's Spring collection. Christopher Bailey is proving to be the smart choice to revive the classic brand. So I was excited to see what Fall would look like... At first I saw: dark and tough, which was a bit frightening. Inspired by the Prorsum knight, I definitely see medieval references. Metallics looked like shimmering armor, reptilian gloves looked downright Read more

Welcome to a more casual Giorgio Armani Fall collection - which is not a bad thing. Looks worn with flats set the tone for this played down show. Also, if you take into account the beautiful draping and beading, casual does not mean non-luxurious. Mostly jacket and skirt pairings was surprising - leaving me wondering where all the dresses were. But the jacket and skirt duos were supreme. There Read more

Blugirl is what I would call the Italian equivalent of Betsey Johnson. The bridge line of Blumarine, this spunky design house always delivers fun party frocks for the ultimate party girl. The Fall collection delivered no less - and a bit too much. While I would love a party to wear the acid bright cocktail dresses to, I'm afraid I'm not enough of a jet setter. But if you are... Plaids, leopards, Read more

To kick off Milan Fashion Week I thought it would be fun to feature this wonderful Venezia! photo posted by celebrity_soup in the Overseas Fashionistas Look Book. Very cool how her turquoise top complements the colorful architecture of Venice. She is today's Look Book Look of the Day! Her blue tank top is from Woolworths in South Africa. Congrats celebrity_soup! Everyone else, submit your Read more

As much as I wish I was attending Milan Fashion Week next week, my fantasy will have to be fulfilled with the Fab Finding of an outfit to wear to the grand event. London Fashion Week is wrapping up and now it's on to Milano! So, imagine you were lucky enough to be jetsetting to say the Versace show next week. And, even better, you have a front row seat. What to wear?! I started you off with this Read more
