Miley Cyrus in Dolce & Gabbana: Miley wore an ensemble from Dolce & Gabbana at tonight's 2013 MTV Video Music Awards VMA's. The look featured the ever-present midriff-exposing crop top and stretchy leggings--both with multicolored jeweled beading. It was a cute look but I just wasn't a fan of A) her shoes (EWWWW!!!) and that hair. Also...
Don't Do That Huney: Can we please stop with sticking-out tongue thing! #NotCute. Her momma and daddy must be soooo proud. #Not.
The Look: Two days ago, in Milan designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana showed their Menswear Spring 2014 collection--fresh off of just being sentenced for tax evasion (oopsie!). For this Spring 2014 collection, it wasn't jail stripes but it was all about Zeus vs. Apollo and Sicily's (where they are from) Greece-influenced mythology. The soundtrack was Ennio Morricone's music for Cinema Paradiso. The clothes: sexy boys in Greco-Roman printed loose boxy tops, high-waisted shorts and very, very, VERY fitted suits (I hope there is some Lycra in them suits!). Oh, and for an accessory: the Gladiator Sandal, big THICK legs...and a big sexy Mediterranean five o'clock shadow.

Prada vs. Dolce & Gabbana--Milan Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2013/2014
Last month, Milan Fashion Week for Fall/Winter 2013/2014 happened. I posted the Gucci Fall/Winter 2013/2014 show HERE back at the end of February and so here are some more Milan Highlights:
Let's begin with two contrasting collections--Prada and Dolce & Gabbana. One was "Undone Bag Lady Chic" and the other, Catholic Diva Goes Baroque! Care to take a guess who did what??
Prada Fall/Winter 2013/2014:
The Look: Feminine Bag Lady Chic has been Miuccia Prada's heroine for ages and nothing changed here. She described the look for Fall 2013 as beening "Done and Undone". It was. The clothes--as styled had a look of :"just thrown on" as she had barely spent time even fussing with her hair or makeup before walking out of her Milan pied-de-terre. In terms of silhouettes, one that stood out involved skirts with a side panel that dipped asymmetrically at the hem. Lots of luxe tweeds, furs and embellishment of sequins and crystals were present as well.

Dolce & Gabbana Fall/Winter 2013/2014:
The Look: Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana are obsessed with Icon Worship, the Catholic Church, Baroque-isms and all out embellishments. They used the golden mosaics of Sicily's Cathedral of Monreale as their starting point for this Fall 2013 collection. Every look seemed like "Fashion Priestesses" transporting themselves from a Church wall's mosaics and onto the runway. Shining golds, deep blood reds, lots of sequins, and jeweled details throughout. Lace and heavy embroideries as well. Now, this Fashion Church is one I'd like to worship!
