MUGLER FALL/WINTER 2012.13

Best of Paris Fashion Week so far? We’re thinking YES! Nicola Formichetti pulled out all of the stops this Fall season for Thierry Mugler. Sticking with the brands glam 80s vibe, we see a slew of big white furs, wide shoulders (to compliment the modern power woman), sleek and interesting cuts, splashes of color, and even some intense prints. When it comes to craftsmanship and conceptual fantasy design, Mugler is one of the best. Love!

MUGLER FALL/WINTER 2012.13

In his quest for MUGLER to be ‘Fashion Without Frontiers’, Nicola Formichetti, in collaboration with Mugler’s head menswear designer, Romain Kremer, created a collection that expands the idea of male heroes and clothing archetypes through cut, fabric and silhouette.

The music for the presentation is a new track and vocal by the lovely Azealia Banks, specially commissioned by Nicola Formichetti for the show. The film footage (above) was captured during a 4 day, 24/7 live broadcast from the MUGLER atelier leading up to and after the show.

GAGA’S WORKSHOP AT BARNEY’S NYC FLAGSHIP

We’ve entered the “12 Days of Gaga.” That’s what Barneys is calling the countdown from Wednesday until 11:59 p.m. on Nov. 21, when the luxury retailer’s Madison Avenue flagship opens “Gaga’s Workshop,” a holiday extravaganza with over-the-top window displays and limited-edition products created in collaboration with Lady Gaga.

Shoppers will enter through the store’s 60th Street entrance, which will be tricked out to make people feel like they’re walking into the mouth of a giant monster-like Lady Gaga, Barneys officials said. The displays are also under the creative direction of Gaga’s stylist, Nicola Formichetti.

To build anticipation, each day before the opening, a new limited-edition product will be released on the workshop’s official countdown website.
