Heidi drops the Yves from Yves Saint Laurent


Stefano Pilati left and Heidi Slimane took over at YSL. Heidi  announced that he will design the french iconic brand from his L.A studio and shockingly changed the name of the main line to Saint Laurent Paris(see my reaction here) followed with a boring logo and his first collection for the Parisian house who didn't manage to wow the fashion world.




Nicolas Ghesquiere  Balenciaga no more


We were shocked when we heard Ghesquire  will no longer be the Creative director at Balenciaga a position he had since 1997. He also left without announcing his next move. Rumor has it he will launch his own line.!!



Cara - The new Kate Moss?


Cara Delevingne was the girl of the season! From runway shows to campaigns to a movie this young London born beauty was the most talk about model this season . Cara also won British model of the year at British fashion awards.




Raf Simons at Dior 


After one year since the Galliano scandal finally Dior appointed a creative director and it was non other than  Raf Simons who accepted to step in Galliano's shoes. Raf presented a new modern twist at Christian Dior's legendary ''New Look''.



The Del Rey Fever


I don't know if it was me but i felt Lana was everywhere this year from her H&M campaign to gracing what it felt like a million covers (Vogue Uk, Vogue Australia,Interview Russia) and releasing epic music video after epic music video. 



Joan Smalls is the worlds No1 model


I was so happy when i checked the new top 50 list on models.com and saw Joan Smalls  being number 1.
I even dedicated this post to her.

Blair got her happy ending in Ellie Saab




I was sad to see one of my favorite shows coming to an end but at least my beloved couple got their happy ending.Blair married Chuck in a light blue lace Ellie Saab gown from the designers Summer 2012 Couture collection. Gossip Girl 's costume designer Eric Daman told InStyle.com.
"When I saw the Elie Saab dress finally chosen for Blair's wedding to Chuck, it was absolutely perfect for her, "It needed to feel like old world glamour meets contemporary high fashion."  "I liked the beautiful blue hue," he added. "It reminded me of the wedding dress Wallis Simpson wore during her scandalous wedding to The Duke of Windsor."
