Donatella in Versace

I didn’t like this collection very much but it certainly captures a glammed up Saint Marks Place vibe. Punk Approved.


Cara Delevingne in Burberry

Slashed to there and spikes to stab. Punk approved!


Sienna Miller in Burberry

Bed sheet as a gown, leather motorcycle jacket with spikes for days and a I don’t give a f*ck laugh. Punk Approved!


January Jones in Chanel and shoes by Nicholas Kirkwood
Met Ball ‘13

Even though Madge scares me now a days.


Dakota Fanning in Rodarte
Met Ball ‘13

Cut outs and sheer? Baby girl Punk approved.


Sarah Jessica Parker in Giles Deacon

Full body fishnet? Punk approved.


Marc Jacobs and Sophia Coppola

Not everyone at the Met Ball were able to translate the Punk theme this year. I picked out my favorite 20 interpretive looks from the Gala.

Pajamas and polka dots? Punk approved.

The Met Gala celebrates Punk this year.

Influences and Influencers

Looking over the FW12 Nina Ricci photos and I was of course dying over the collection but this one look:

Made me think of Rodarte FW08

Which made GHTSofNY (thanks for the link!) think of this Junya Watanabe FW06:


Which in turn makes me think of Vivienne Westwood’s SEX sweaters.

I love all these designer’s collections but sometimes it is nice to have a bit of a history lesson. 

Get ready for posts on three FW12 collections.
