CRUELLA DEVILLE, 101 DALMATIANS
Do you know who HATES Cruella Deville? PETA, that’s who. Spending her days designing for her swanky label, House of Deville and spending her nights killing puppies, she’s one of the meanest villains around. Yet, despite her obvious animal cruelty issues, she has impeccable style. I can’t condone the killing of dalmatian puppies and everybody has their own preference on fur but hot damn, she’s an eccentric dresser.

OSCAR DE LA RENTA, FALL 2011
I always enjoy what Oscar de la Renta turns out and this season was no exception. From what I could tell, there were two themes happening. The first was this kind of Russian folklore motif with collage, prints and fur accents. The second was along the same lines, but with an icy tweak—silver, white fur, sleek silhouettes, lots of shine and an almost Bond girl thing goin’ on. Actually, when the first dress rounded the runway the music took a very Bond turn. Anyway, it was a great collection as usual.
