Wunderkind
So who didn't love Paris Fashion Week? Designs from Marc Jacobs, Chanel, Chloe, Dior, Valentino, Jean Paul Gaultier, Louis Vuitton, and many many more were caught strutting down the runways. Overall the designs seemed very feminine, always with exceptions of course...such as the 70's powersuit.
Fall trends: Suits, Appliqués, knee length skirts, and of course... lots of layers
Colour Trends: Browns and Off White's, with pops of Purple and Electric blue

II. Chanel- KL Tackles Global Issues, Fashionably Of Course
Karl Lagerfield is now joining Stella McCartney by taking the stance with green fashion. Chanel had their models strolling through a wilderness of icebergs and splashing through icy waters, wearing plenty of fur- all faux. Lagerfield says, "Fake is not chic – we have got a new Chanel tweed to stop copies – but fake fur is."
I didn't think that such a large fashion house would make such a bold statement, but Karl always knows what the young kids like. Now all we need is LV to jump on the bandwagon.

III. Telephone Video- Smart Fashion?
What do cigarettes, diet coke and a phone hat have in common? Lady Gaga. Apparently, any material given to the right designer, can be turned into high fashion. Although, the look will probably only be able to be pulled off by the Lady herself of course.
Lady Gaga released her new track this week, Telephone, featuring Beyoncé. The video was outrageous of course, but the fashion was even crazier. I wondered what Lady Gaga would wear after the death of McQueen, and here are some of the eccentric replacements...
Overall I wasn't personally a fan of the fashion in the video, although I did think the phone hat was quite cute. Even though Lady Gaga's outfits are all normally very avant-garde, you can still see the art and thought in the pieces. I found that lacking with these outfits.
