Emulation Nation

Hi blogosphere,

Oy, but the fashion world's topsy turvy this season, uh? Giles Deacon totally disappoints, Prada is an utter bust but the big ol' fashion houses I usually barely acknowledge are uncommonly ace. I'm talking about Dolce & Gabbana and - can't believe this - Versace! They were bustin' out the Julie Verhoevan Medusa prints and I found my stomach doing little flips of love.

"Dude, I would so hit/wear that," Click to make big and luxuriate in the splendour.

Ah, but if you've read the blog, you'll know I'm a sucker for illustration. The first shows in Paris were actually some pretty hot merde on the ol' artwork front. Quite apart from the awesome pleaty-insane courtier chic going on at Gareth Pugh

She's the queen and she wipes clean!

You see? Pugh can do black *and* white.
Versatility o'clock!
(legitimately obsessed with this look, however)

However, I'm particularly loving Belgium Kris Van Assche's Paris collection. The models almost looked like a physical threat. Even a little bit badass-y. Lots of sheer loose fabrics contrasted with sharp tailoring, navy, black and of course, the crucial chest/neck tattoo action.

Sure the last two shoe options suck but the patent boots could work...However, it's like Coco Chanel said: get dressed and before you go out, check the mirror and take one thing off. And then add a neck tattoo. Here are your options:

Myself, I'm all about wearing the story of a cat and dog in love. The partially engorged pony is more of a summer thing. Right now, I'm taking outfit inspiration from Dolce. I totally wore this look all day today.

Total pyjama-day chic. Veil not pictured.

I am so fashion right now.

Love,
Becky
