Heidi in Mondo!

Mondo from Project Runway, in my opinion should have won last season but that's not the point of this post.....................you remember the black and white polk-a-dot dress that Heidi and Jessica Simpson loved but Micheal Kors and Nina were not fans of....right????  Well, leave it to Heidi to prove her point of how she can rock a look..............she wore it!  Now it's modified so he must have listened to Kors when he suggested to show more skin...check out the picture...........what do you think?  I love you',Mondo but I would have made it into a mini and left the sleeves.............

Timeless

Trends fade but style remains the same.......that saying is soooo true.  You know something is timeless when you think to yourself, "I would still wear that" or "that look is still relavent today" Well, I do a lot of looking at old images (1960's - 70's) on the web to get inspired and I want to share some of my favorites with you.

Dior ad Campaign stirs up controversy..........again!

Christian Dior, House of Dior, photos taken by Quentin Shih- Shanghai Dreamers series
These images are just a few in a series of controversial images from Dior's new ad campaign launching the fashion houses'opening in Shanghai, China. The photographer is Quentin Shih and this is not the first time he's worked for Dior or stirred up controversy.  In 2008, Shih snapped a series called The Glass Box. I recently read an interesting article on lemondrop.com that speaks to the controversy that Shih's photos can be considered racist and derogatory towards Chinese culture.  If you look closely, you'll see that all of the models look the same expect the Caucasian model.  Shih used the same model and simply duplicated the image.  This plays on the stereotype of all Asians looking alike however, that was not Shih's intent.  According to Shih, this was his intention to create a feeling of uniqueness;  an individualistic take relating to Dior's clothing style. In the end you can't deny the press and exposure that this is getting....................it all equals dollar signs.  What do you think?
