French Vogue February 2015 Review Part 2

It's Fashion Week so I thought I would get into the spirit of things.

I will be posting one more as there were so many pictures.

I appreciate they have to cram as much material in and please all the advertisers but this is just overkill no?  
The new interns/stylists need to read Coco Chanel's memo about taking one thing off before she left home.
Celine amped up its accessories although still quite streamlined considering. But Celine rarely does any wrong in my eyes.

Fashion designers in comic sketches are saying things like,
" Next season, I'm feeling Russian revolutionary meets Peruvian potato farmer."

Well, meet Dolce Gabbana's theme of Half Sicilian wench and 
Half Seville torero.
Fancy Spanx / Tour de France with lace pants is not going to catch on as outerwear.

I don't like to be told how to carry my clutch in a passive aggressive manner.
I am thinking crime forensics will appreciate these blade runners 
to narrow down criminal suspects.


This C'est Vogue editorial really had no cohesion except for a strong electric fan artfully blowing hair.
This pose is unexplainable unless she just kneed her cheating lover.

           I have a feeling that strong wind blew her trousers off.

If she was really worried about her modesty she could just untie her shirt and put it on.

I don't know about you but during times of stress I have had nightmares like the pic below.

Don't even think about playing the blinking game with this girl.

Vogue France like every other world edition loves their 
girls related to influential people "fashion ingenues" .
She's a relative of the Prada matriarchs.  
She says she loves fashion. 
If you don't speak French, believe me you are not missing out on much with this interview.


Not all music was listened to on an iPad.
Remember the old days?



Long gone are the days where you could just hire the Grand Palais in Paris and hold a fashion show. Unless you do something to get in the press or do something photogenic to get free publicity on social media it doesn't get any traction.

Chanel did a pre-collection show in an Austrian chalet and
 Dior hired a sumo stadium in Tokyo to do theirs.

No Vogue editor could not mention the passing of a great fashion designer Oscar de la Renta.
He was one of the first designers I remember as a child.
I envied Amal Clooney - 
not so much for marrying George but because she had the chance to work personally with the legend himself.



Vale Oscar.
