Deuce to Ad-In
Wimbledon Fashion: See Serena Williams, Maria Sharapova, and Roger...
vanityfair.com
This composition begins with the model, posing his fashionable pose while giving us two sides. And when you think of "two", you might think of "deuce" (well, at least Stewie from Family Guy would.) And when you think of "deuce", you might think of tennis. What's this have to do with carpet tiles? Not much actually, but I thought it would be a fun composition to put an area rug that has a sense of "two" under the tennis player's feet. That is all... moving on.

Carpet tiles for fashion runways
Considering how some big fashion designers are into the zig-zag motif nowadays, like Missoni, for example, this rendering shows some new possibilities.
And if the model is nervous, she has directional arrows to keep her from falling off the path. You know it's happened before! Here are a few on-runway falls:

Fusing art with fashion, Picasso
Check this one out: http://www.petapixel.com/2013/03/06/clever-fashion-photographs-in-the-style-of-picasso-paintings/
...for a wild look at models that pose in the style of Picasso's Cubism. Beware though, some images may give you a nightmare tonight.

Bang, bang... you're dead.
Bangs are a delicate matter. Once they're cut, there's no undo button. Too short?... you just boarded the douche-train. Going for a new look?... make sure you're not doing it to try to boost your confidence. I once knew a girl who had a great hairdo without bangs. I off-handedly mentioned that she looked kinda like Lois Lane from Superman, and she went and cut her bangs to try to match Lois'... but too short. Not only did she enter Doucheville, but she proved her confidence was at the bottom rung. Poor girl. I'm happy to update, though, that she stuck through it by letting her bangs grow out a bit, which yielded the compliments she thrived on, thereby boosting her confidence, prompting her to strut her stuff just like the good ol' days.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying it can't be pulled off, but the bangs need to go with the head they're framing. Here's some guidance: http://www.dailymakeover.com/trends/slideshow/stylecaster-best-bangs-for-your-face-shape/

A Zipper on a Neck Tie???
This is one of the most unusual garments I've ever seen. I have to hand it to the designer though, for absolutely obliterating the metaphorical box of which innovators must think outside. Holy crap, this is something new and different. So, of course I'm forced to consider the timeline of the tie and see where this fits in. Wikipedia tells me that ties originated as a method to distinguish specific military personelle, then when the Croats were in France the Parisians found the item appealing, which led to a new fashion craze in Europe. I have to admit, this is far from the assumption that I had made previously, whereby I imagined the tie to be a fashionable way to conceal the buttons of a shirt. Another consideration I had previously was that the tie was a barrier to the shirt, like a guard, so that the sloppy eater or wine drinker has a built-in napkin. This way, if he makes a mess he can remove the tie for another chance at congeniality with a distinguished, stain-free guest. This zipper tie now creates an all-new way for the late-night black-tie partier to loosen up... no longer does he loosen his tie and roll up his sleeves, instead his gesture is a somewhat inferior "zip" down, which may be trouble if he's really drunk, because his brain might loosely associate the motion with unzipping his pants, and he may find himself in need of new underwear.
