Alexander McQueen Spring 2010 Show is Weirdly Fascinating

Check out this video of Alexander McQueens's Spring 2010 runway show. It's amazing and really strange at the same time. Girls with printed dresses that look like insects. Mile-high shoes. Space-age roaming cameras. That guy is a genious! http://alexandermcqueenlive.showstudio.com.

Vivienne Westwood Spring 2010 Painterly Prints



My favorite original punk designer, Vivienne Westwood has the best artsy prints of the season. Love her drapey, baggy styles and the prints that look like they were made by Jackson Pollock. It makes me want to throw some paint at my blue jeans.

Here's a beautiful crocheted dress from Helsinki

I am a good crochet-er and I really love this dress from http://www.hel-looks.com/.  It might be fun to try to re-create something similar for myself.

More from Balanciaga's Spring 2010 collection


Balanciaga's Spring 2010 collection has wonderful graphic design

Here is an example of the Spring 2010 collection by Balanciaga.  I really love this collection.  It was intended to have an urban, atheletic look.  Although it is a bit too futuristic for my small rural town, this is the kind of out fits that I would like to wear.  Each of the outfits features outstanding collages of textures and colors.
