Well, I ´ll probably need a bigger closet for next season

I know, there has been a lot of talk about mcqueens last season, because - obviously it was sort of what he had left. So, I just want to add that I really adore the print, it´s vibrant, eye-catching and as many celebs showed on the red carpet it is actually kind of wearable.








I loved the shoes, the hair and even the barely there make-up. I think they just sort of put white powder over the models faces to make them look nearly invisible.




THE HAIR! Oh my god. This idea of horn-like styled upper parts and everything non-shiny and a bit disgusting - GENIUSAnd, hopefully I don´t have to explain, why I love the shoes, because obviously (come on, they look like hooves, who cares if you can actually walk in them properly?) they are so eccentric and perfectly fitting into the collection.




Alexander Mcqueen really did a great job on this collection, which is the only positive thing I can say, because he went way to early and surely there would have been many, many surprising, exciting, delighting, astonishing and inspiring (add some other adjectives if you want) collections to come.











R.I.P.

















Of course, there were many other trendsetting shows, for example: Alexander "king of cool & sexy" wang (and yes I just used wang and sexy in the same sentence and yes, I know that it can also mean penis, ha ha ha).





Wang is a genius. He turns things I don´t like into things I think I can´t live without. For instance, this one season where he did bold colours and goth elements? I hated goth and always backed away from people wearing something like orange, blue or yellow. But he just made it look and feel right and for that I adore and love him. He also did his magic in this season, although I thought it was a bit more boring than his earlier collections. Maybe it is because of the wearability of this collection or the colour pallette he used, but still it seemed like he was too busy to really, really give his heart (but still, he is a genius and the collection is enourmously well done).



I already told you how great the hair was done, but pleeease: look at those shooes! And the way he did the trench! It seems as if he had taken a normal, classic trench, torn it apart and then kind of sewed it together. I also love how the pants look, although I thought they and the ones Marc Jacobs did this season looked too much alike, but anyway, the fabrics look luxurious, but still laid-back - totally wang-ish!







I really don´t know the reason, but whenever I look at this ensemble it reminds me of a typical Carrie- look (note to myself, less Sex and the City seasons, more real sex ;)).




Now some other looks I would die for:


Please, take a look at this crazy number at the left! OH MY! I would wear it with barely-there make-up and green Charlotte Olympia shoes (maybe you´ll see other ones later on) and my black vintage bag - aarrgh, I need the money and the occasions to wear this stuff to!!!


To be honest, I am not a big fan of Sonia Rykiel, but I like her ambitions and definetly love that she lets the models look happy and (at least) kind of healthy. Last season she had them say little monologues, which I found really funny.


The hats look super-sweet and the hair is (as always) too cute to be true, but I can´t quite see the reason for those belts and colours she used, but anyway - gosh, those girls look happy (just compare them to the ICEBERG-girls - what a difference).

The biking-pants are the best I have seen this season, although nearly everyone (vuitton, marni, marc jacobs,...) did those. I love the colours and would (maybe, okay, I said maybe) wear them.
