Have. Want. Need.
Mischa Barton wore Karta's Geometric Jeweled Dress back in September at Milan Fashion Week. Maternity wear designer Liz Lange just showed up to a Glamour party in the same frock. Both ladies look svelte but I prefer it on Mischa because the funky pattern matches her bohemian style. Who do you think wore it better? Source Who Wore It Better?

Fall may seem like a far-off cry from the season in bloom, but we couldn't help but take a peek (and lust over) Nicole Richie's latest Winter Kate and House of Harlow autumnal wares. With Richie's signature brand of bohemian-luxe style ever present, we were delighted to note an edgier (read: rich jewel tones, plush velvet textures, and slick lasercut details) vibe in place. The collection is Read more
From home decor to fashion, needlework is all the rage. This daringly dressed model was seen today on the catwalk during the Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology Graduates Show 2012 at China Fashion Week. Her sculptural dress is created from loops of thread stitched using a crewel technique. Crewel embroidery, also known as crewelwork, is at least 1,000 years old. Traditionally, it's used Read more
Just when we thought minidresses were over, we get proof that they are indeed a must in our Spring wardrobe. Malin Akerman hosted Lacoste's launch event for their Spring 2012 collection and wore a little blue silk minidress with geometric prints from the line. We love the clean, crisp design and the vaguely nautical color palette, we love the simplicity of her look — no jewelry, just nude Read more
Both a reimagining and an homage to the label's signature aesthetic, Karl Lagerfeld plays in tweed, sporty silhouettes, and whimsical layers and texture (and bejeweled eyebrows) for Chanel's Fall 2012. Lagerfeld's all-star cast (minus a noticeably absent Freja), including Miranda Kerr, Joan Smalls, and Anja Rubik, took to the catwalk of a snowy white cave, done up in crystal embellishments that Read more
For Missoni's Fall 2012 collection, designer Angela Missoni was inspired by a mix of urban influences and an immersion in nature and landscape. According to show notes, the woman of Fall '12 is a "heroine in a concrete jungle," and conceives fashion as an "evocative adventurous fantasy" while maintaining a strong-willed, sophisticated yet sensitive vibe. The collection was, of course, loaded with Read more
It was a prints party over at Prada for Fall 2012, where designer Muiccia Prada sent models down the runway in a sartorial symphony of brightly colored geometric designs in the form of dress-like coats over pajama bottom pants, cropped suits with mismatched blouses, and even briefcase totes to match. And for those who might shy away from the bold hexagonal patterns, jeweled embellishments Read more
From the moment we laid eyes on the purple geometric-designed carpet-cum-catwalk, we knew Miuccia Prada would imbue the Fall 2012 collection with her signature brand of retro quirk and clean lines. Indeed, it was a flurry of bright clashing prints (of all shapes and sizes), bejeweled wares, and ombre dip-dyed hair. The mosaic-like psychedelic prints came a dime a dozen, in bold burnt oranges, Read more
Vivienne Westwood brought her signature brand of punk rock glamour for Fall, showing a collection of easy, hipster-cool pieces for Red Label. The designer pulled out all the stops when it came to styling — stripes were jauntily mixed with plaids and polka dots, menswear-inspired fedoras were tied with colorful ribbons, and models were painted with crosses, hearts, and other symbols, playing to Read more
Honing in on a cool-girl craftiness (and her own signature style), Whitney Port sent fuzzy sweaters, mixed prints, and pretty florals down the runway this morning for her Fall Whitney Eve collection. Front-row celebs Nigel Barker, Tyson Beckford, and Coco Rocha nodded along as models hit the catwalk and Beyoncé's "Run the World (Girls)" blared in Lincoln's Studio. The soundtrack may have been Read more
