YSL FW 2010

I know Stefano Pilati said the collection wasn't about religion but I can't help but see references to Catholicism throughout the collection. From the somber habits to the Cardinal purples to a braided rope belt reminiscent of a monk's waist- it seemed like he was dressing the saints of the future.

McQueen: The Final Collection

Maybe its appropriate that McQueen's final collection looks heavily to the past and traditional beauty.

Chanel Fall/Winter 2010

I don't often associate Chanel with fake fur (or fake anything for that matter) so I was shocked when I read that Karl Lagerfeld's latest collection was full of faux fur!

Despite the fake fur the collection was much closer to couture than the ready-to-wear it claimed to be! Sticking to a mostly brown, white (oh how I love Chanel white dresses...) and black the Chanel client will be ready for primal, if not decadent, arctic living come fall.

And are these Chanel bags made to look like ice? LOVE!

You guys know that Karl is practically my god and I too would sell my soul to him to be a Chanel Ambassador so I really have nothing bad to say about this collection.
