Felipe Oliveira Baptista Autumn/Winter 2012-13, Paris Fashion Week

FASHION DESIGNER FELIPE OLIVEIRA BAPTISTA is the man who put the sass into Lacoste following his appointment as its creative director in August 2010.

Collection - bold primary bright patches, super-tight leather leggings with stomp stomp wedge-platform grey boots and plenty of caps to be able to keep an eye on everyone from under.

Reduced zebra prints showed off this girl's wild side too - the music also, all whoop whoop and sirens, did this too. It was grit with gloss - patent panels used throughout on top-heavy tunic tops and boiler-suits , and gloves that went all the way up the arm to show that this girl means business.

Chanel’s Plume fine-jewelry collection

Chanel fashion  news :Chanel’s Plume fine-jewelry collection—with its cascading earrings and a diamond-encrusted bow necklace—evokes the sophisticated style of artist Tamara de Lempicka. A casual ’do would corrupt such divine elegance, so hairstylist Teddy Charles decided to go for an old-school glamour. Using a small-barrel curling iron and a touch of shine wax for polish, he created finger waves, then pinned each one in alternating directions. Hair set like this is usually just that—on temporary hold until the curls are “set” and ready to be brushed out. Sometimes, however, the best art is made along the way. “The hair looks almost like that of a statue,” Charles says. “When you keep the pins in, it’s very thirties—but in a really modern, sexy way.” (style.com)
