Wel, whaddya know? Rain and old age stopped play so instead of celebrating Mardi Gras in the rain and cold, I'm at home with a mini bottle of Number 7 branded fizzy wine catching up on a week's worth of Style.com. Let's go!

Let's talk double denim. Obviously I'm behind it. Anything Bruce Dickinson can do I can do better. Except pilot a jet, fence and sing falsetto. I found this collection pretty hit and miss but I do love a nice jacket, particularly with denim and the leather/leopard number is pretty smart too.

I don't really want to talk about Alexander Wang. Maybe when I've had a good look I'll change my mind but for now, let's move swiftly on.


Alexandre Herchcovitch
If in doubt, go bat shit crazy with accessories. Everyone's saying this was his best yet and I think I agree. ~Punk~ meets traditional costumery of the USSR... how could it not appeal. Wish there were some detail shots on Style.com but I guess I'll have to wait for our catwalk photographer to file back.



Chris Benz said his collection was inspired by "bad girls I knew in high school, the ones who got sent away to wilderness camp. This is what I imagine them wearing." Cliché, obvs, but I'm a sucker. So what? I liked it. It started kinda blah but then hit a high note of weird fur and plaid and ponchos. I can't see any of the bad girls I knew at school wearing this, no matter how much they'd grown up, but still.
