It's Like Entering the Miu Miu Zone

Cole can't get past Miu Miu's Fall 2010 RTW, but frankly, I'm still stuck in the past. Not that I sit like an ice queen through their latest offerings, but still: I'm just a sucker for the kiddy(get it?)-provocateur prints. Can it please be 2009 again?





























Cole and I have a planned trip around town this Saturday. Maybe the Phipps at Lenox will have something to show us! Filming for HEAVY #3 goes down tonight and this weekend's a blur of triple bday bashes and Kid Sister on Saturday (tickets still available!). I'll be photographing the madness and picking up tips for our own C&C bonanza next month. Elaborate sushi platters? Body paint models? Who knows?

It's braids-central all over the SS10 runways, whether it's up around nylon and canvas military outerwear with Alexander Wang or on Miu Miu's Lolita darlings, with cute prints and mischievous schoolgirl cuts.

Needless to say, I took the hint and wore a plait to GaCityStyle's premiere bash. Better pictures soon, but here's a sneak peek!



Le sigh. Sometimes I wish I hadn't layered my hair so severely, but it works in the dark, at least.

Let me also take the time now to proclaim my love for Miu Miu's newest face, the darling 15 year-old Lindsey Wixson. Nymag.com has the deets:

Lindsey Wixson began modeling at the age of 12 in her hometown of Wichita. Her parents thought it was a phase she'd grow out of, but then Steven Meisel decided to shoot her for Italian Vogue after seeing a video she'd posted of herself on Models.com. After walking for Prada and Miu Miu, she is now the face of Miu Miu's spring 2010 campaign. At 15 years old. Her skirt may be short in this picture, but she has her limits: Wixson requested a bra on a recent W shoot with Craig McDean because her top was see-through. W notes that a lot of models wouldn't have. Wixson replied, "I'm 15 and even though I freaked a little, I know for a fact that my mom would freak ten times as much. I just couldn't be flashing everyone out there."

TOO PRESH.
