It takes some effort to make twig-thin, leggy, gorgeous models look frumpy and bad. Marc Jacobs apparently had enough time on his hands to make that happen when he designed the Fall 2010 collection for Louis Vuitton. But where he did excel was in casting the not-so-twig-thin models. Then, only then, did the charms of the collection really become clear.

And so it was that the curvy Victoria’s Secret cast were clothed not once but twice during the international runway season: in Prada’s Fall 2010 show and again at Vuitton. More of the Mad Men era mid-calf full skirts, cardigans and bouncy ponytails were perfectly classic, this time with a Parisian twist. Busts and hips were accentuated.

So what did you expect to see from
John Galliano - Demure? Shy? Shrinking violet fashion statements? We think not. Keeping true to form his Fall 2010 collection is a spectacle as much as it is anything else. It is nomad meets demonic temptress, I dream of Jeannie meets the dark side.

With Paris Fashion Week over it can no longer we said / sung that “Paris is burning.” Planet Earth however… Global warming seems more prominent of late, at least in fashion editorials.

While Eniko employed both cutting edge fashion and equipment to help fight global warming (follow the previous link if that makes little sense) model Denisa Dvorakova has simply taken to the desert. Her motorcycle may be old school, but her fashion is equally as on trend as Eniko’s; thoguh I can’t help but feel that D&G tap pants mightn’t be the most sensible of choices for such an environment.

It’s the contrast of the golden studs against the black t-shirt dress and cardigan that seems most powerful; against the stone background they can’t help but stand out. But it’s the finishing details that always go a long way to creating the effortlessly cool ‘off duty model‘ look.

For Lara it’s the barely there cigarette, catwalk make-up dominating bleached eyebrows and that hair: the most popular of 2010’s hairstyles, the side braid.

The military trend continues to explode into fashion pictorials in an understated, utilitarian way. Elle magazine gives us some particularly soft and feminine takes, like this beige trench, vampish red lipstick and 1940’s waved hair, which works particularly well.

It’s rare to see Karl Lagerfeld stray very far from the classic. Even the futurism of last season was carefully balanced by the classical, yet Fall 2010 was rife with modern elements and futurist references. High-shine patent leather came in the form of leggings and jacket trim, before things got sportier with piped zip-up jackets and leggings which buttoned up at the sides.

What exactly is Penthouse Mouse? We weren’t exactly sure what we were in for when we rocked up fashionably late to the project’s launch on Friday night. Turns out, it’s a hell of a lot of things all rolled into one.

It’s a gallery. A store. It’s art and fashion. It has live photoshoots and parades and speeches coming up in the next few weeks. Making its home at the former Naval & Military Club at the top end of Little Collins, Melbourne, Penthouse Mouse is in for a busy time.

Celebrating its launch on Friday were fashion industry and fashion lovers alike, and we spotted (and snapped) many an intriguing outfit amoungst the crowd.
