Christian Dior Spring 2013 RTW Oh, hey guys… do you remember that 9/11 memorial created by Russian artist Zurab Tsereteli? You know, the one that looked like a certain part of the female anatomy? Well, probably not because it was banished to Bayone, NJ, but apparently Dior designer Raf Simmons hasn’t forgotten.

Oscar de la Renta Spring 2013 RTW Ok, I’ll admit this one may be too obvious…

Jeremy Scott Spring 2013 RTW Oh, how nice- it’s like National Geographic meets the dudes that wake me up each morning with their power drills.

Roberto Cavalli Spring 2013 RTW Looks like The Great Gatsby-meets-Elvira look is finally coming back into style, just in time for Halloween. Thank god, right?

Marc Jacobs Spring 2013 RTW It’s no secret that Marc Jacobs was inspired by the divine Miss Edie Sedgwick for his latest collection, but was he also inspired by Tom Petty’s video for “Don’t Come Around Here No More”? I can only hope.

Anna Sui Spring 2013 RTW And now, for the last installment of my mini-series of Parsons grads (representin’!), I bring you Miss Anna Sui. And yes, the Chinese porcelain look may have already been done by Rodarte in their Spring 2011 collection, but they never did it with the punk finesse that Anna has.

Alexander Wang Spring 2013 RTW The interesting leg wear at Alexander Wang’s show reminded me of a zebra-like creature I once saw that only has stripes on its legs. Thanks to the magic of Google, I found out the animal is called an okapi and it’s actually most closely related to a giraffe. Therefore, I must thank you, Alexander Wang, for enhancing my zoological knowledge.

Prabal Gurung Spring 2013 RTW The bottom layers of Prabal Gurung’s white ensemble initially reminded me of Chelsea Clinton’s Vera Wang wedding gown when examined closely, but I must admit, it was difficult to look past the dress’s red and white feathering that resembled the crabby contents of a California roll.

Marc by Marc Jacobs Spring 2013 RTW For many, Marc’s latest collection was reminiscent of the 1980’s, but I was picking up on vibes from much earlier than that. (Oh, you know, like the 1500’s, when Italian artist Bronzini was painting young dudes in red hats, and John Lennon during his all-white suit days.) Either way, Marc had to add his signature flair to the look, this time in the form of oversized cargo pockets on the pants- ew.

Oh, hey there!

After a very long hiatus, I have returned to break down the best (and worst) of runway fashion for your viewing pleasure. Recently I quit my nine-to-five job to devote my time to studying what I love the most, and I’m now proud to say that I’m a graduate student pursuing my master’s degree in Fashion Studies at Parsons. In honor of my new place of education, my next few posts will be dedicated to a few of my favorite Parsons alum including Alexander Wang, Anna Sui, and of course, Mr. Marc Jacobs. Enjoy!
