Fashion Stumper of the Week: Jean Paul Gaultier

July 8th // 2 Comments

While this is just the preview of what we saw walk down the runway at the Jean Paul Gaultier couture show, don’t misinterpret. The skeleton was not a reflection of the recent debate regarding too thin models, but rather “taking couture back to its bare bones,” he was quoted saying earlier this week.

That translated into a lot of black, and other elements you can see here on Dita Von Teese, who stripped while walking down the runway at the Jean Paul Gaultier Haute Couture show in Paris yesterday:

An interesting presentation… what do you think about the meaning behind the “bare bones of couture”?

Love,

A Look at Paris Fashion Week: Haute Couture 2010

July 6th // 2 Comments

Have you ever seen the film The Devil Wears Prada? Think back to the scene where Meryl Streep tells Anne Hathaway that her blue bargain bin sweater is a direct descendant of the cerulean blue featured on the runway. It’s very true – many of the deals and steals I write about here on MyFashionCents are somewhat inspired by the designs that make their way down the catwalk. That said, here are some photos from Paris Fashion Week: Haute Couture 2010.

Giorgio Armani Prive:

Christian Dior:

Bouchra Jarrar:

I see metallics + feminine draping, florals + Alice in Wonderland and clean lines + solid colors.

How do think these couture elements will be adapted for the masses come fall/winter?

Lots of love,

Loren

Happy 4th of July! Support Our Troops with Old Navy

July 4th // 2 Comments

Happy 4th of July! I hope you all are having a great holiday weekend!

If you’re looking for a patriotic way to spend Independence Day, head over to your closest Old Navy. If you purchase one of their signature flag tees today – for only $5 – they will send another shirt overseas.

You can also make a donation of items our troops might need, like undershirts, socks, flip flops, toiletries, etc. at your local Old Navy, which will give you 10% discount on your entire purchase today.

Lots of love,

Loren

Friday’s Link Love!

July 2nd // 1 Comment

Happy Friday! I want to wish all of my USA readers a safe and wonderful 4th of July weekend. What are your plans? The Kardashians are in town so my family will be spending some quality time with their family – I’ve missed them :) Have any of you seen Kim’s wax figure at Madame Tussauds in NYC? Amazing!

I’ve been quite busy, but here are the top six articles that have caught my eye recently:
