MENSWEAR AW12: KENZO
Kenzo showed their latest menswear collection in an old railway station. The AW12 silhouette makes us think of the 1950s man from middle America mixed with the modern day guy, the cut and shape of the wool suits mixed with the colourful parkers, bomber jackets and accessories was a winner for us! The colour, print, and metallic petrol shoes are [...]

Using strictly black African models dressed bright [...]

LEA MICHELLE WEARS PETER SOM TO ALL STAR PARTY
Glee star Lea Michele wore a dress from New York designer Peter Som to the FOX TCA All-Star Party. I have to say I loved this dress on the runway, the colour, the split, the cut - put it this way, I want it in my closet whichever way possible! However I don't think Lea Michelle did it justice at all, it looked too big on her and made her look [...]
