John Galliano Show Downgraded

John Galliano shows are always a spectacle and have included everything from "toxic" fake glitter snow to smoke-filled bubbles. It seems unlikely that anything will fall from the ceiling at the Sunday show, which is scheduled to go on despite the designer's dismissal from Dior. However, it's been downgraded from a runway show to a presentation. "It is unlikely the designer himself will be there, as he has reportedly entered rehab," the Telegraph reports.

While his show has drawn significant stars in the past, it's difficult to imagine any attending on Sunday. Meanwhile, the Christian Dior show marched on without Galliano today, and the label plans to launch a new watch collection with Charlize Theron starring in the ads.

60's Fashion Revival

2011-02-09T14:44:00.000+02:00

Almost all designers these days are looking to the seventies for inspiration, but the Acne Pre-Fall 2011 collection has looked outside the box and stepped into the summer of love! Although there is an edginess detected in these images, it’s definitely a modern take on the full skirt, pops of colour and simple tailoring. However, the edginess itself may hint at a punk-inspired line for their fall collection.

So, Taylor Momsen’s image may not be that appealing to average girl, but we have to say that her recent ad campaign with the legendary John Galliano for his latest fragrance is absolutely beautiful! Abandoning her typical provocative style and heavy black raccoon eye make-up, this new ad campaign shows us a softer, yet gorgeous Taylor that is very haute and lovable!

The Cove - Dolphin-Friendly Fashion

2011-01-31T12:34:00.001+02:00

Tweed hearts these super green James Perse ‘The Cove’ T-shirts. The line was inspired by the Academy Award-winning documentary ‘The Cove’ and goes beyond using the film alone for inspiration, however all proceeds from each and every sale go towards supporting the organizations and people who work against the killing of dolphins such as those depicted in the documentary. Each of the James Perse ‘The Cove’ T-shirts cost upwards of $100, but for those eager to support dolphin-friendly organizations, it will seem a small price to pay for peace of mind.
