...just one more!

Just when you thought we had finished writing about LV at Paris Fashion Week this year..

BAM! 

This baby pops up on our radar!

OBsessed with the whole carousel thing. Mark Jacobs outdid himself here.

The things we would have done to be able to attend this extravaganza are most certainly questionable.

BON APPETIT

Obsessing over this tongue-in-cheek MOSCHINO-esque logo belt from Friend of Mine.

We're definitely penciling this onto the top of our shopping list because, really, what girl doesn't love a totally unnecessary statement belt..

& why shouldn't our hips have a little fun?

Karl Largerfeld once again left us in a state of awe after his SS '12 Collection at Paris Fashion Week.. Transforming the Grand Palais into a white aquarium could not have been an easy task. 

Although Karl probably didn't expect to be sharing the nautical mix up theme with Versace, Holly Fulton, Alexander McQueen and Vivienne Westwood Red Label who all created their own mythical sea stories for SS 12 collections. 

There was no escaping the underwater theme, not that we're complaining though.. Could it get any better than walking life size mermaids amid a world of over sized white seahorses, bubbles and coral.. I doubt it.

A very enjoyable season for pure escapism..

Louis Vuitton's Spring/Summer '12 show at Paris Fashion Week was on epic proportions. Like the fair, but in a dream. The white merry-go-round horses, pastel palette and subtle lady-like lines gave us enough of a taste to be jumping out of our skin for next season. Kudos to The Sartorialist who never fails to bring us some of the most mindblowingly awesome photos.. every time!

Les Tuileries have been used for many a purpose throughout the centuries, though we think that one of its best functions is to host the fashion forward attending fashion week. It serves as the perfect background to some of our fave street style photographs at Paris Fashion Week every year, and nonetheless this year's fash pack. 

All the colours and textures on trend this season are making our mouths water. Inspired? Yes.

BACKSTAGE....

Just a little montage of some fave backstage photos from this years shows at NYFW. 

There is something extra special about backstage photos. They are always more interesting to look at and often a bit quirky.

Enjoy

NEW YORK FASHION WEEK

1. Alexander Wang shares what he already knows about athletic dressing: speed is about control.

2. Keeping with the colour palette of the season Diane Von Furstenburg shows us how white is what you should be wearing. 

3&4. Our pick for summer dressing in block colours from Peter Som.

5. Crushing on Helmut Lang's layering.

Colour blocking, tick. 60s mini dress silhouettes, tick. Ladylike floor-length skirts with thigh-high splits, tick tick tick. The usual uncompromising palette of black and white is now experiencing a shock to the system with flashes of the brightest shades of red and blue to take all American dressing to another level. This years NYFW is sure to satisfy the most die hard of fashion fans while also leaving a little something for the more corporate globetrotter.
