Gucci's Women’s Autumn Winter 2011-2012 Collection

Floating clouds of colorful fur, elusive transparency, masculine accents, glimpses of patent leather for a lady of mystery and irony. The stylish provocation of a daring colour palette. Eyes hidden by a wide-brimmed hat, with feathers, recalling an eccentric muse. For the Autumn Winter 2011-2012 season, the Gucci woman dresses with a cinematic allure and a strong seductive power. Entrancing like a performance by Florence Welch from Florence and the Machine. Intriguing like archive images of Anjelica Huston photographed by Bob Richardson. As a film noir in color. 


“This is a contemporary female dandy who fuses glamour and seduction using the iconic codes of the House. She is a polished woman with a decisive personality, who is attentive to detail and willing to dare," commented Frida Giannini.

Kim Kardashian's Fashion Emergency: Curves Wouldn't Fit in Grammy Dress

(CBS) In this corner - a Kaufman Franco gown. In that corner - Kim Kardashian's butt. It's a battle royale for the ages!

On Sunday night at the Grammys red carpet, the reality star told Ryan Seacrest that she had the "biggest fashion emergency."

Speaking of her shimmering gold dress, she said, "I took it to another tailor and they tailored it to where my whole butt wouldn't fit in it... I was freaking out and said that if I didn't have a dress, I wouldn't go."

Well, she went. So somehow the 30-year-old reality star managed to shoe horn herself into it. Or perhaps she had some help. Kim says the fashion house that made the dress came to her rescue and "redid the whole thing," according to US magazines.

It's a lucky thing for Kardashian. After getting kicked off the stage by Prince last week, she sure didn't need her dress to reject her also.

Anti Sweden Jeans launching Fashion Week in Hell

The Norwegian jeans brand Anti Sweden Jeans is known for its rebellious identity and close relation to the black metal scene. As a protest against the established fashion industry, Anti Sweden will stage their own fashion week in Hell – in the county of Nord-Trøndelag in Norway. Anti Sweden Jeans and Fashion Week in Hell has already caught the attention of Mötley Crew, Steven Tyler and The Killers. Calico Cooper, controversial daughter of Alice Cooper, will now literally be travelling to Hell on earth to front the new Black Metal clothing line.


Rock legends are preparing for one hell of a fashion riot:


– We're tired of Swedish brands taking complete control of the Norwegian market. We're tired of fashion snobbery and toothless arenas for the exposure of Norwegian design. Now we want to launch our new collection on our own terms, says Kjetil Wold, founder of Anti Sweden Jeans. People fascinated by the dark and occult have for many years been drawn to Hell in Trøndelag. On Thursday 3 March the place will really be hell on earth when Anti Sweden launches "Fashion Week In Hell" to present their unique new clothing collection.


Calico Cooper who is central in her legendary father, Alice Coopers, show of sex, flames and rock and roll, is going to Hell in Norway to front Anti Sweden Jeans collection. Calico Cooper is educated as a ballet dancer, but is most famous as a controversial performance artist and model. The LA-based rock daughter is travelling to Hell in Norway to do what she does best – burn down the show.

– The Killers toured in our jeans when they wanted a darker, more edgy image, and both Mötley Crew and Steven Tyler from Aerosmith have shown great interest in our jeans. That Calico Cooper is now travelling to Hell, a remote place in central Norway, is a strong confirmation that Norwegian black metal culture, fashion and design has a strong appeal all over the world, says creative director in Anti Sweden, Kjetil Wold.
