JEREMY SCOTT
Tea Time: Now enjoy your favorite designers with a cup of tea. German shop, Donkey Products, has released a small collection of tea bags attached to the bodies of designers, including Karl Lagerfeld, Donatella Versace, Jean-Paul Gaultier and more. We wonder why they didn't fit Alber Elbaz on to one of those things?
The teabags are priced at $10, but we're sure the real excitement will come from shopping on the website attempting to decipher German.
Time To Get Busy: We confess that we are major Twitter fans, so when The Cobra Snake tweeted a photo of condoms he was gifted by Proper Attire, we knew we had to add them to this week's shopping list. Even better, the condoms are designed by Jeremy Scott - who by the way, tweets away too.
Known for his dedication to "extreme fashion," Jeremy Scott did not
disappoint with his Fall 2010 runway show. Rolling with the theme of all
things extreme, Scott paid homage to the 1990's supermodel.
Hair
stylist Eugene Souleiman for Wella, crafted an intense updo fit only for the likes of a true
supermodel. The style itself was no small feat and took dedication on the
part of the stylists to execute. At times the execution called for three
stylists to one girl to properly affix extensions, and wrap and curl hair into
a tremendous ponytail piled high atop models' heads.
Bold statements
extended beyond hair and clothes and into makeup as well. Makeup artist
Val Garland for MAC drew inspiration from her own personal icon, Linda
Evangelista. "The inspiration is extreme fashion so the idea of
the makeup is taken from the 1990's supermodel," said Garland. For
intense eyes, she used a combination of gel & liquid eyeliners
topped with a shimmering carbon powder to really intensify the black of
the look. Lips were overdrawn for emphasis but in a surprisingly
subdued hue called "Folio Rev." Dewey skin kept the look fresh while
two sets of false lashes added the final dramatic touch.
The
models finally hit the runway to a new single by Estelle (who just
happened to be in the audience). Black fitted garbs including LBDs and
unitards proved the basis for the line, though each held its own
surprise inspiration. Female silhouettes and candy-colored rhinestones
made a pop on the runway, as did garments carried by the models on monogrammed
"Jeremy Scott" hangers.
Whether you love, or love to hate his styles there's one thing you can't deny; the man puts on one hell of a show.
Contrary to popular belief, Jeremy Scott is a fine designer. Whether you admire his subtle wit or not, the designer has no time to please you - he's a little preoccupied with his New York following. The designer will be showing at Mac/Milk Studios this season and I'm on the verge of dying. Not only do I love the intimacy of the studio, but on my last visit I saw Carine Roitfeld teeter out of a huge black SUV - that was all I needed to end my fashion week. But enough about her, let's just hope Jeremy leaves his bedrock inspiration where he found it this season. Oh, and welcome Jeremy, welcome.
