My biggest fear
My biggest fear as an artist is that I always need to have new ideas. Especially if I want to become a fashion designer, I need to have two fashion shows a year at least to be a considered as a designer. I wonder if I would have endless ideas that are strikingly amazing like Karl Lagerfeld. There are already 3,589 names on the wait list to get these temporary tattoos.*The picture above is part of 2010 Spring Chanel collection and the model is wearing temporary tattoo designed by K. Lagerfeld which looks like stockings!
Tinsley Mortimer
Tinsley Mortimer is a Manhattan socialite and fashion entrepreneur. Mortimer is known as one of the most famous faces of the New York scene. She has a line of handbags and clothing. Also, she designed the purse she is holding at St. Regis Hotel. Her outfit looks cute.
Lee Alexander McQueen (RIP)
On Friday 11th, 2010, just nine days after the passing of his mother, British fashion designer Alexander McQueen was found dead in his Mayfair home. Known for his unique cat walks, McQueen often captured the fashion world by using his models not only as mere subjects, but as aspects of live compositions that he composed using cages and live butterflies. Several days before the start of London fashion week, McQueen was prepared to view some of his pieces. Nevertheless, he will always be remembered as an iconic figure to the British fashion world and a creative genius to the runway.
