anthony vaccarello x versus versace fall/winter 2015!

After Donatella jizzed over Anthony Vaccarello's Spring 2015 capsule collection, the Medusa herself made him the permanent creative director for Versus Versace and bada-bing-bada-boom his first legit collection came out with a fancy unveiling party in London-which I know is confusing since it's not in Italia but you'll see why after you click play.

I'm guessing their inspiration story goes a little like this: see a sexy Versace siren (Karlie Kloss-she looks like she gets down on the down-low.) got ditched by Kate Moss & one of those Gatwick London grunge alley rocker's offered her an uber ride and then they had a crumpet infused one night stand and this is what their dirty parts created. And I’m not mad at it! Well, actually I'm a bit mad because we were promised 17 pieces and I was thinking maybe the bambinos would get 17 of our own but no dice: we got 4 total looks. The first two featured guy jackets are bit too Hellraiser for me but I can head back to them come Halloween time. Now, the ladies got some pretty cool plaid laden getups (not shown below but in the vid) that I thought would translate over into a rad menswear counterpart but whatever... at least we got kilts! I can fuck with kilts any day, so I call this a win for us. 

You can head on over to Versus Versace online to peep and buy if you have a sugar daddy/mommy the collection.

Peace, Mothalovahs!

aloha to versace's medusa mural at their new hawaii store!

With Versace (I mean, Versayce!) opening a flagship store in Honolulu, Donatella decided to hook up with Pow! Wow! Hawaii and commission awesome Californian street artist Tristan Eaton to spew up some of his paint radness on it. Staying true to Gianni's emblem, a huge ass Medusa was chosen as bait to reel in the fancy people of the island. I for one would be HOOKED in a millisecond (I would be a Dori of the fish world- no doubt about it) because the end art piece is absolutely INSANE!!! 

Check out what legit and genius talent with spray cans can accomplish in just 5 days!

The colors and the snakes are so damn electric that I wouldn't be surprised if an entire shirt collection would be inspired by it *ahem Donatella- call me when it happens!*!!

versace for h&m cruise collection; the mens lineup.

I have yet to recover from the first Versace for H&M hysteria, so much so that 5 out of the 6 items I landed on haven't made it out of their green-blue leopard garment bags and this morning Tella dropped the Versace for H&M Cruise collection. Crazinessssss! Not going to lie, I was pissed when I heard rumours that this business was going to happen. The "once in a lifetime" vibe about the collabs are what makes it worth freezing your genitalia out in the cold. So WTF! But I guess the Versace team got a sniff of my rancid evil eyes and decided to mess me up by making this Cruise collection only available in select countries in Europe online to have the last laugh. Figures. They're probably talking about me to my arch nemesis Lagerfart too. At first I wasn't upset because I got a look at some of the girl creations and they looked like Candyland and Strawberry Shortcake had made an illegitimate lovechild. But then, this morning, I checked out the mens lineup:   

 

No fruity prints?? No gaudy studs? No palm trees!??? Can this be so?? Actual normal clothes by Versace??? I dig it, I dig it, I diiiiiiiiigggggggg iiiiiittt!! I know some fashiontrolls may say that it's too average or too boring, but for me, I'm all about being able to actually wear crap and even better, wear them without people noticing I wore it a week ago. The palm tree gear from the last collab, although crazy cool, you're only allowed to wear once a month or else you'll turn into "the weirdo with the palm tree obsession" - not good. So this collection definitely gets my seal of obsession. I want all the shorts, all the button downs, both pants, and the cobalt blue tee & cardigan NOW! I just have to find a way to Mission Impossible my way into Europe on January 19th kidnap Allegra Versace and have the ransom be paid out in Versace for H&M Cruise gear because I'm still broke from the last collab. See you on Italy's Most Wanted!

versace for h&m viral video drops the crazy on us after manhattan launch!!

Donatella and H&M Creative Advisor Margareta van den Bosch

Last night was the big Versace for H&M Palm Tree Appreciation club meeting, aka the launch event, in Manhattan, which included a runway show, performances by schizzo mess Nicki Minaj and the immortal artist currently known as Prince, and some private shopping (damn you, fashion illuminati!!). After getting some rest from tweeting a #VersaceForHM wreck last night, I woke up to the official viral video/commercial plug on the fashionwebs.

Get ready for a whole lot of psychosis a la Versace!

After years of intense DIY therapy, I am back to square one as I'm in a current state of awesome WTF crazy. I still don' even know if I'm in real life mode right now. But ya know what? I diiiiggggg it!!! I would be the first to sign up to live at Tella's (yeah, we're close like that) House of Crazy in a heart beat!! Her house, her rules, her pleasure!! Psycho paradise heaven! Just as long as I'm paid in Versace for H&M pieces, of course. 

Btw, one more week until the collection drops at select H&M's nationwide on Nov. 17th!! Screw the Occupy Wall street camp outs... it's going to be all about Occupy H&M! Yes, my maniac self will be camping out the SF H&M store!

These will be mine (for starters)!!!

versace for h&m; the madness begins... editorial preview & ad campaign!

Over the summer the fashionwebs was jizzing itself in excitement as it was unveiled that Versace would be the next designer slated to laugh all the way to the bank with H&M. As a mere plebeian, I also climaxed. It's freaking VERSACE, how can you not? Well now that it's getting close to the mid November launch date, the colllab-collection is starting it's ho stroll. A couple days ago VOGUE Russia gave us a pleasant preview punch: 

Che freaking bello!!! The collection looks damn savage! It definitely doesn't look like a cheap collab but rather straight up Gianni and Donatella mastery!! I'm crossing my fingers, eyes, hell even my tongue in hopes that the mensgear will be just as grand. Seriously. If the fellahs don't get as much love, I will go to Milan and forcefeed Donatella and Allegra! They haven't eaten real people food in decades, so this will surely be their true death! I kid, I kid... not really, I will calorie them up without blinking! I have no remorse when it comes to fashion.

And today, Versace's and H&M's minions unleashed their first ad campaign and daddy likes!!!

Lindsey Wixon, Daphne Groeneveld and Sasha Pivovarova make the best Versace lionesses/power bitches of all legendary time! I bow down to them! I gotta start scouring under my couches, bed, jean pockets, etc to fill up my piggybank because I will gladly give these ladies my lunch money once the collection drops. Bully me, bitches, BULLY ME!!

So what do ya think? Am I just being a crazy pseudo guido (the fancy kind- not Snooki)? Do DISCUSS!
