Cavalli Chainmail Dress

So, it's been out for a while now, but I'm just now finding it, so that means I'm just now posting it...
Diane Kruger in Roberto Cavalli's fall/winter 2008 dress. Some critics don't like it, but hey, I think it's pretty cool. I love the shimmery silvery texture of the chainmail paired up with the fur shrug.

I love the little details on the side with the simple fabric lining.
Here's the same dress in Roberto Cavalli's runway show.

Alexander McQueen FW 08/09

I LOVE ALEXANDER MCQUEEN... Seriously. His style is totally cool. This particular collection has always been one of my McQueen favorites, and finally seeing it in motion, makes it that much cooler.

The entire experience is like walking through a gothic fairy tale and remeniscing through a dusty Edwardian attack. It's mysterious, illusive, and exciting, waiting for what's next. It's a bit of romance, innoncene, history, and something never seen before. The models walk up with such focused ferocity, and walk away like visions that never were. Seriously, I love McQueen. Yes, the video is "long" by some standards, but come one people, bare with me!

EDIT: There is a much better HI-DEF version, with more close ups and different angles from this part of the show, unfortunately, there is no music- still worth watching for the clothes though.
