BULLSEYE.



TARGET in the US has announced yet another collaboration even before Anna Sui's clobber hit the racks. Frenchie JEAN PAUL GAULTIER has been hired by the uber chain to design a range which will hit 250 stores in early March 2010.

The limited edition range can also be bought online.

We cannot wait to see what he has in store for the Twilight era Gen Y's. Whatever he does, I am sure it will be fantastique.

Get in line, NOW!

UGGGGHHHHH-UNGARO.





What the fuck were these people thinking? Why would give some hack like Lindsay Lohan the job of being 'Artistic Advisor' to a French Fashion House? This enfant terrible can't even dress herself, much less dress others. And what a hide she has to accept such an offer! Did she really think this was going to win over the world's population and re-instate her as some heroine? Probably.

Ms Lohan, you should'nt accept everything that is offered to you. Straight to DVD Movies are your forte, not High Fashion. And by your appearances over the last few years, style is a word that you have NO UNDERSTANDING OF. Simple.

I can understand that accepting an offer like this may have been hard to turn down. Free trip to Paris, free clothes, free booze, free food, yadda yadda yadda, but at the end of the day my darling, this dream-come-true deal was a catastrophe waiting to happen, and by all reviews, it HAPPENED.

Ok, some pieces were'nt that bad, but the majority were, and despite only having a month or so to put it together, this is no excuse. Forgoing this season would have been a better decision.

Little known Spanish Designer Estrella Archs took the reins only to fall off the horse. Yes, there may have been pressure, and yes, you may not have had the proper amount of time to execute an entire ready-to-wear collection, but this should have told you something. Forget about fame and fortune, because honey, I think your time has come and gone. Sorry to say!

CEO Mounir Moufarrige, I hope you're hanging your head in shame!

FORMALLY YOURS!


This MARCHESA dress is Perfection Personified.

Perfect Colour, Perfect Cut, Perfect everything.

Senior girls heading to their end-of-year formals should take note, it not all about looking like some cheap whore, or worse, a middle aged lounge singer, its about looking elegant, beautiful and refined...........even if the grey goose ends up all over it.

And if you can't afford it, or if time is running out, then get one made. There's always a sewer in the south-west suburbs dying for some work.

Most teenaged girls get it soooo wrong when it comes to their formal dresses, and wearing a Tux is such a cop out, not to mention cringe-worthy.

Have some dignity and step out of your comfort zone, save your hard earned money and invest in a dress that will make people envious. There's nothing worse then looking back at your formal photo's and all you see is some scragg with a puffed sleeved and a clacky mule! Foul!

WHAT A TURKEY.



Currently selling on net-a-porter.com is this Parrot Clutch from JUDITH LEIBER.

It has a clasp to fasten at the front, a gold chain for easy carry, and gold leather lining inside, and for AUD$8510 this luxurious multi-coloured birdbag can be yours.

Perfect for visits to the Zoo or Mardi Gra. It goes with anything, including the garbage!

PRADATACULAR.





I love, love, love the Prada collection shown on September 24 in Milan. The duchess satin vests, jackets and bermudas (cut off at the seam, to leave raw edges) were somewhat bordering sexy/quaint. The over-the-top embellished finale pieces were typical Prada, but still different in their own light.

OUCH MOTHERF**KER.




Listen up you hard-core style mongers! If there was ever a 'Killer Shoe', this is it.

NICHOLAS KIRKWOOD has designed these industrial strength shoes for fashion house RODARTE, and they are nothing short of kick-arse!

Not sure if they'll be put into production, but you could definetly kick that arsehole to curb with these little babies!

Mad Max would be Proud!
