NYFW A/W 2011: The Riviera Club

Last Friday I attended the Riviera Club's Fashion Week Presentation at the Bowery Hotel- it was amazing! Not normally a fan of Menswear, the Riviera Club is deffffinitelyyyy on their A-game with their A/W 2011 collection. I was fortunate enough to scoot my way up to the designers and ask a little bit about their inspiration for the line and according to them, the Riviera Club is all about being "refined but relaxed, well-dressed but detailed, and always wearable." Now all I need is a beautiful boyfriend to dress up in all of RC's de-vinee designs. LATER!

SEX IN THE AIR

I am fully aware that leather is the last thing on everybody's mind, especially due to the chiffon, lace, and teeny tiny hemlines not so subtly spilling off the NEW RELEASE racks paraded at the front of every major department store in this city. However, I definitelyyy believe that this is the best time to fully take advantage of the S&M trend that was ever so popular last season. Why? Fabulous (and not faux) is now offered for only a fraction of full retail value- scoop it ASAP.

Love Interest: Tilly Bloom

Alllllll about this bitch right now. Famous for her references of sight, blindness and eyes that continuously pop up within her work, Tilly Bloom has taken the title as Winner for my favorite illustration artist. I want, scratch that, NEED every. single. piece. within her jewelry & accessories collection. Oh and her prints? Almost all of them are done entirely in monochrome and are so incredibly hip it hurts. I love how she takes all of these obscure inspirations and meshes them together to create a single unit- things that could never conventionally work together, yet somehow they fit. You can easily spot the influences of Surrealism and The Absurd that she integrates within the Victorian Era, total Sci-fi twilight zone bullshit, folklore creatures, and those little porcelain dolls that alwayssss seem to be watching you. Valentine's day is coming up, buy me "cat in a hat" earrings. Seriously.

Christian Dior Haute Couture Spring 2011

Oh. My. God. Galliano, you dead seriously outdid yourself with this one. Absolutely everything about the 2011 Couture Collection oozed the sophistication and glamour stimulated from New Look and the early 1950's which I think many designer's have lost throughout the years. The entire collection, inspired by René Gruau, a longtime partner of Dior's and one of my favorite illustrators, is STUNNING. The color pallate was done to mimick a gouache practice; (a.k.a. paint suspended in water for a heavier watercolor effect) and can be seen throughout the looks by the ombre detailing within certian pieces. The second Karlie Kloss opened the show (met her, love her) in a gorgeous red coat it was game over: I'm sold. From start to finish, the show was incredible. Let's just hope one day I'll be able to see it in person. Au Revoir!

Check out the first half of the show here:

Kill Yourself, Comfort.

Ever since the new year, this terrible, ominous rumor has been fluttering around, whispering in my earlobes and now I finally have to face (but never accept!) the truth: "Flatforms," as WWD and numberous other publications have dubbed them, are here to stay. UGH! Seeing the mere mention of this word on the screen has me literally shuddering with fear and disgust. Now, what exactly are "Flatforms," you ask? In a nutshell, Flatforms are an atrociously haneous emerging trend on the shoe scene attempting to pose as a fashionable hybrid betweetween a platform and flat. Apparently, shoppers have gotten sick of the constant release of ankle-breaking sky high heels and are demanding something more wearable. I'm sorry, but if you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen... or in this case, shut up and pick up Louboutin's Pigalle Point-Toe Flats.
Dear Michael Kors, Derek Lam, and (gasp) Karl Lagerfeld: What the FUCK were you thinking for jumping on this train? You are all le incompetent and a complete and utter discrace to shoe freaks like me everywhere. I'm blacklisting you from my life, bye.





Ahh, my personal favorite. Because the flatform clearly takes first place in this picture. Hahahaha not.
