It Can't All Be Dior Celebrates Three Years!

It Can't All Be Dior is turning three! 


And instead of terrible, it's gonna be hot hot hot! 


But in retrospect let's take a look at some of our favorite "Three Makes it a Trend" posts 



1. He's a Brick... S***house 




Before Solange rocked the Moschino suit in her "Losing You" video






it was just part of a trend we picked up from men's Fall 2012 runways







2. Droppin' Tracks







Holiday 2010 had all kinds of folks 
dropping the ball. 


Well, actually it was more like they 
lights and mics. 












3. T**s Be Out





This trend continues on to this day. Every Winter windows show unfortunate broads (and a few gents) that can't come in from the cold.

Why Was There So Much Bad Fashion at the CFDA Awards?

For years the CFDA's were held behind closed doors and reserved only for the fashion elite. Now that they are finally being broadcast the whole world can see what those in the know wear to honor their own.

And it ain't good.


Seth Meyers and Alexi Ashe





She's in Band of Outsiders. He's in my dreams as a cutie with a sharp wit. Serving as host, he looked better when he donned a take on Marc Jacobs' MET Ball sheer number




Grrr....




Anna Wintour





Speaking of Mr. Jacobs, this fashion dictatoress could choose any ensemble lain at her fingertips and this simple Marc Jacobs shift is what she goes with? It's perfectly fine, but not at all inspiring. The same could be said for American VOGUE though....




Tory Burch



Presumably in Tory Burch. Painfully all one color.





Donna Karen




Presumably in Donna Karen. Obviously did not visit the tailor. But then that's what happens when you're running late from tap class. Ugh.




Jessica Stam 







Ooh girl, now is not the time to retread that old Elvira costume.





Zac Posen and Crystal Renn





A bit dramatic, yes, but finally some folks are gettin' in the spirit (or spirits for that matter. Go ahead!) Although, Crystal, girl you have wittled away your once robust frame and over tanned.... I thought you were Paz de la Huerta at first. Yikes!



Alisson Mosshart and Eddie Borgo 





She's such a peach and I may have sold that shirt to her once upon a time. They're a bit too cool for school, but this is a fashion event and at least they look stylish, be it in a rocker, St Mark's way, but style nonetheless.



Phillip Lim with Theo Hutchcraft from HURTS 



Oh I love HURTS and how cute a couple would they be. Although, Phillip, that suit. Jesus.



Shala Monroque





Artist and editor, Monroque is rockin this cute little dress from... well I'm not sure yet. Gee I hope it's vintage or some unknown designer. Something under the rader and low key and personal. In my head that's how it plays out and therefore she be doin' it!



The Olsens and Lauren Motha-F-in' Hutton 






Bow down for the queen in cream.

MET Ball? Glad I Went to Kylie





Pouring through the photos of last nite's CFDA Ball at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, I am not feeling love at first sight





(I just won't be able to get this hideous frock out of my head!)





And there was something generally missing from the evening. Where was the pomp? The drama? The art? We're celebrating a man who made a dress out of medical slides here people!



(That's Karen Elson for crikey's sake!)


Some people delivered


(Anna Dello Russo)


(Ashley Olsen and Christian Louboutin)


(Naomi Campbell)


But there were too many meh looks on too many c-listers



(La La got an invite? What was Angie Martinez busy?)


The crowd was thick with folks in their finest Tory Burch, Tommy Hilfiger and Michael Kors as if they were celebrating Junior prom, not one of the greatest design minds of recent fashion



(Wait - why you there? And why you wearing Tory Burch?)


(Jessica Stam's been practicing her prom queen acceptance speech ever since she picked up her Tommy Hilfiger dress at the mall)




Ok, this  Michael Kors fuchsia number on Brooklyn Decker at least embraced the color trend so strong for Spring but people this is the MET Ball! You can where whatever you want and you're encouraged to be adventurous!


But let's end on a high note (cuz it can't be that the above dress is "ok"). 


Friend of Alexander McQueen and never afraid to take risks Daphne Guinness won the evening as best dressed in McQueen







And really that more than makes up for all the Maxxinistas in the room!

Thrown a Curve 'Ball'


(Queen of the Universe in and with Oscar de la Renta)


A few weeks ago I wrote how there was none of the usual hype for this year's Costume Institute Ball at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.


Well where there's no smoke, there's none of that fire. And last nite was in desperate need of a bellow.


(Hilary Rhoda in Prabal Gurung)


















(Naomi Campbell in
Dolce +Gabbana)                                       





Ladies, these outfits are weak. This is your moment to give us a giant sartorial bitch slap, Alexis Carrington style. This is more like Amanda Woodward lite.


(Jessica Stam in Rachel Roy)







(Zoe Saldana in Calvin Klein)



                                                               








Things I did like: lots of models present, granted outside Naomi no "supers". Where's Kate? Stephanie? Alek? Karen Elson? Could they smell this stinker a mile away?



(Chanel Iman doin' it in Michael Kors)


And I liked that most guests repped for American designers (again except Naomi. Oh Nomes! Gotta love ya!)


And these usual suspects looked good:


(Chloe Sevigny in Proenza Schouler)





(Nicole Richie in Marc Jacobs)



      



(Rachel Zoe in Marc Jacobs)







(Gwen Stefani in LAMB)


  








And obviously let my US Weekly subscription lapse, cuz when did these two get back together???


(Sienna Miller in Pucci and Jude Law)



But hands down the best look of the evening belongs to:



(Dreamboat Christopher Bailey
and non-descript young'in white girl actress  #4)
