Paris Fashion Week Favorites - Gareth Pugh

After the insanity that was New York Fashion Week, I took a break from compiling my favorites and sat out on London and Milan. Now that Paris Fashion Week has begun, I'll be posting frocks galore so be forewarned. Check out the sick video Gareth released in tandem to the presentation to his collection [thanks Dana for the link!] The boy certainly is the new l'enfant terrible.

The New York Times had a fantastic slideshow and article on Winter's latest trend lace leggings, a while back that I've been meaning to mention for a while. As well as feature some incredibly cool leggings that popped up on runways for Spring 09 shows like Gareth Pugh & Rodarte.

Gareth Pugh left London and decided to show in Paris because he thought his work would be more accepted in the City of Light and apparently it has. He combined "showpieces" and looks for the "showroom" that were monochromatic, totally insane, and exquisitely executed. Alexander McQueen better look out, this Pugh is the new enfant terrible. and yes he rocks, reps and incorporates the Elizabethan Collar hard.
