Lula, The Subject I Know Best, lives in a wonderful fantasy world of fashion. She is sketched, scanned, and digitally restyled and is also the Editor-in-Chief and Creative Director of illustrated magazine HERSELF.

Always decked in the latest fashion and hanging with the creme-de-la-creme of the fashion industry, Lula surely knows herself best when dressing, she can be called the “Anna Dello Russo” of the digital age with her sometime outrageous sometimes fun outfits.

Wes Gordon’s name is synonymous with indulgent luxury; a certain timeless elegance mixed with a youthful and somewhat modern edge as always, a reflection of adding fantasy into fashion.

Last season, Gordon was inspired by Kate Middleton and this collection had a similarly relevant but perhaps darker starting point. “It’s Rooney Mara meets Great Expectations,” says the designer. “I think it’s the attitude, what [Mara] represents. It’s that darkness; it’s that bite.

Key looks included an edgy chainmail slouch vest, which ruffled loosely around the waist and sported a deep V, teamed with a gold silk, mullet-hemmed skirt, gracefully falling in waterfall pleats. As you can see below a butler coat that was a direct inspiration from “Great Expectations”.

When the designer was asked what does he usually have on his mood inspiration board, one answer loud and clear; Rooney Mara’s face

Amanda Seyfried rocked this Prabal Gurung violet drop waist printed dress while attending a movie premiere. I love how she belted the Prabal piece but why couldn’t she go for more interesting heels? And why didn’t she put her hair up in a ponytail? The updo would have complemented the smokey eyes and would have showed the dress’s interesting baring neckline.

Prabal‘s Spring 2012 collection is available at AlOthman.
