The Dream of the 90s is Alive... on Jeremy Scott's Fall 2012 RTW Runway

Fashion | 13 March 2012

The nineties are back in a big way, but I’d forgotten just how much the decade of my youth had to offer until my fellow blogger sent me the link to Jeremy Scott’s Fall 2012 RTW runway show. Oh-my-Lisa Frank! Mr. Scott brought back the nineties like a psychedelic time warp straight to the second grade, but for grown-ups. We’re talkin’ Lisa Frank, Bart Simpson, emoticons, smiley faces, bubble font, peace flowers, peace signs! (It took a lot of self control to not type all of that in bold, all caps, and followed by ten thousand exclamation marks). Ah, every look is like the turn of a long lost yearbook page, just a million times more awesome.
 
 
I ruined a lot of furniture with Lisa Frank stickers, but yeah, a corset covered in them? How did I not think of this before!
 
 
The smiley face tee. Didn’t we all have one? Computer keyboard pants? I wish…
 

 
You can just barely make out the hippie dippy flowers on this amazing metallic rainbow dreamcoat… I mean trench. And, um, holographic pink overalls? Yesterday, today, tomorrow, always. And yeah, there’s a rainbow peace sign tee under all that.
 
So, boo ya! Jeremy Scott. That was, like, all that and a bag of chips.

Prada Takes High Fashion to the Highway

Fashion | 03 February 2012

 I’m not gonna lie, I’ve been to a few hot rod shows in my day, so when I saw Prada’s Spring 2012 Ready-to-Wear collection, the little girl in the rumble seat inside me let out a little squeal of glee. Finally, fashion that my dad might even appreciate….
 
 
 
All the initial hype I read was totally shoe-centric, and they deserve it, but hello! Look at how great everything is!
 
 
I love how she incorporated the classic car motif in so many ways, yet makes the traditionally masculine concept seem so feminine and sweet. Think muscle car-meets-pin-up, with a little fifties housewife mixed in. Prints, micro prints, racing stripes, flames, and full-on hot rod decals and embroidery… Oh my! And the color palette! Who wants to hop in my ’57 Chevy with me and speed on down to the malt shop? (No, I don’t actually have a ’57 Chevy, or know where you’d find a malt shop nowadays).
 
 
But really, let’s get back to the shoes, am I right? Spoilers, wings, chrome, flames, and even tail lights, plus the occasional bow or jewels? I could gush for hours.
