BCBG Max Azaria A/W 2012-2013 Show is All About Color Blocking
Name three trends you never want to see together? Sheer with fur and some color blocking? Great, now imagine that those look awesome together? I know it’s hard to, right?

Somehow BCBG Max Azria Autumn/Winter 2012-2013 show is full of neutral color blocking, sheer cutouts and lots of fur trimmed jackets and it’s very cool and surprisingly it works.

The collection debuted at New York Fashion week and according to Max and Lubov Azaria it was “an artful proposition.”
Alexander McQueen 2012 Spring/Summer Ready-to-Wear Collection Offers Femininity
Thankfully, there were no casualties on the Alexander McQueen runway as the models all walked the catwalk with head masks. How those girls did it is beyond me, but that’s why they get paid the big bucks.

Sarah Burton unveiled her 2012 Spring/Summer ready-to-wear collection for Alexander McQueen during Paris Fashion Week and to no surprise her collection got rave reviews.

This was Sarah’s third collection for the fashion house and it is being said that she brought “fragility and femininity to the catwalk.”

What you saw during the show was a lot of ruffles, form-fitting jackets, and silvery and pink dresses with a lot of sharp tailoring.

Karl Lagerfeld's Spring/Summer 2012 Collection Inspired by the Sea
Karl Lagerfeld unveiled his spring/summer 2012 ready to wear collection for Chanel in Paris today and the collection was nothing out of the ordinary. Simple outlines and lose cuts. Conservative meets chic.

With Karl, we know what to expect as he keeps true to the Chanel brand with the tweed jackets and little black dresses. The majority of the collection was white, off white or nude with some black thrown in for good measure.

Florence Welch performed during the white wonderland. The stage replaced the massive iceberg and volcanic landscapes of seasons past. There was a simplistic elegance to the collection. Lots of white, lots of pearls. Karl not only used layered pearls around the neckline, but also as belts. Very Chanel.

A source tells The Sun newspaper, "Beyonce halted the whole thing because she thought Gwyneth was about to arrive."

"She kept calling her but she didn't show. People couldn't wait any longer and they had to get on with it. Beyonce wasn't angry. She was just disappointed," says the insider.

Haute Couture Fashion Week is always so amusing. Some Most of the stuff that you see come down the runway are just ridiculous.

Celebs Kick Off Fashion Week by Wearing Red!
It was all about the color RED last night at the Heart Truth’s Red Dress Fashion show, which kicked off New York Fashion Week.

Celebs like Audrina Patridge, Julianne Hough, Gayle King, Denise Richards and many more walked the runway in an effort to raise awareness for heart disease.

Denise Richards tried to do the '70s look with a halter-top, empire-waisted dress by Matthew Williamson. Unfortunately, the dress was not really flattering on Denise, but the good news is that she got the most press for the event because she talked about her ex-Charlie Sheen. You milk that addiction girl!

Audrina Patridge Badgley Mischka gown was beautiful, but not age appropriate. She looked like she is 25 going on 35. No 25 year-old wants to look 35!

Julianne Hough also walked the runway and once again reminded all of us why Ryan Seacrest is the luckiest guy in the world. Not only is he one of the most successful guys in showbiz, but he also scored a really hot lady. All those kids that used to make fun of him for being fat feel stupid now don’t they?

The hottest look of the night was by Camila Alves. She wore a sexy red asymmetrical gown by Kaufman Franco. She looked beautiful and the dress looked amazing on her. She also got bonus points because she had Matthew McConaughey as a date.
What Do Paris & Ashton Have In Common?
Paris Hilton and Ashton Kutcher got paid tons of money to fly to Brazil for Sao Paulo fashion week and walk a runway for a local fashion line. That’s a tough life isn’t it?

Ashton Kutcher, who used to model for Calvin Klein underwear went back to his roots this past weekend in Brazil during Sao Paulo Fashion Week. The only downside was that he didn’t walk the runway in his underwear.

Ashton walked the runway at the Colcci fashion show on Sunday night and he looked really sexy. I have a newfound crush for Ashton after watching No Strings Attached.

Paris also walked the runway for Triton and is it me or did she look a bit….buff?

Paris is still really popular in Brazil as fans went nuts when they saw her on the runway.

"I had never seen such a commotion when a model walked down the runway, so I think people didn't focus much on the actual collection," a reporter said.

At least she has Brazil!
