So, I Have A Couple Early Tips...



Chloe
Prada
  The shows are almost over, and there are some early trends for fall, that you could probably jump on now... For Starters, Snakeskin made a huge impact in more that a couple shows! Prada, Valentino, and Missoni used the skin on boots, but Hannah MacGibbon showed whole looks at Chloe and even Dior showed a single snakeskin look! The boots at Prada were trompe l'oeil, to look like another Prada staple, socks under heels. And Valentino just showed Python Go go-boots, a very cool addition to an otherwise prim show!

Givenchy
Ungaro
I love this particular trend! My favorite birthday gift from the last couple years was a turquoise t-shirt with a snarling wolf tearing through, printed on the front! (Thanks Ammo, and Abel...) This has been going around for a couple years, starting back with Balenciga and his Screaming Monkey T-shirts, but this season, Tisci at Givenchy, did not only the Rottweiler tee's for men, but introduced the Panther for this falls women's collection (left)! He used it as as a trim on black satin skirts or the focus of a slick sweatshirt! At Ungaro, there was a Wolf (right), not unlike my t-shirt, and even Jean-Charles De Castlebajac Showed dalmatian faces, albeit they were from the Disney cartoon, but I think it counts!

Alexander McQueen
Louis Vuitton
Another sartorial choice designers made often this season was a little bit of Kink... Can I say that!? Everywhere, from Alexander McQueen (left), to Marc Jacobs, whose show for his signature collection had subtle subtle fetish references, and at his show for Louis Vuitton Showed outright bondage uniforms (right), with models hands' handcuffed behind their backs! Nicola Formichetti showed his first Thierry Mugler Womens Collection, and although it wasn't a very strong show, was all about latex, and vinyl. Lady Gaga all but appeared on stage wrapped in a condom... Ungaro Showed cinched waists, and Givenchy had the Sheer pencil skirts... It looks like if Fashion has it's way this is gonna be a naughy fall 2011.
