Sally LaPointe Fall 2012 #NYFW
They said: Inspired by Kafka’s ‘The Metamorphosis’ highlighting the feeling of neglect and isolation.
We say: If only neglect and isolation felt as good as this collection looks. We’re in lust with the dress with the asymmetrical hem in the metamorphosis print. A mix of burnt orange, gold and grayish blue it feels almost military on top but transforms into a softly flowing hemline. This balance of angular and soft is seen throughout her collection that is created in fabrics such as neoprene-backed wool and felted cashmere. From white leather to laser cut black lace Sally shows a collection that is full of standout pieces.

Seen at GMHC Fashion Forward event
Last night was Gay Men’s Health Crisis’ Fashion Forward event. Brad Goreski was one of the evening’s emcees (along with Tracee Ellis Ross) and I was utterly enamored by his sequined plaid Thom Browne jacket. Other fashion forward attendees included: The Blonds, Andrej Pejic, Bryanboy, and Julie Macklowe–who was honored with the inaugural Style Vault Award.
GMHC is the nations oldest HIV/AIDS prevention, treatment and care services provider and the event featured a runway show with men’s and women’s looks from: Chris Benz, Thom Browne, Jean Paul Gaultier, Marlon Gobel, Sally LaPointe, Zang Toi, Timo Weiland and VPL along with archival looks from Jean Paul Gaultier. The only thing I think is slightly odd is that this was the same night as the OUT100. It’s kind of like having Marc Jacobs and Alexander Wang shows at the same time…so maybe next year you can coordinate so this doesn’t happen?
Also I just discovered this video for the event today and think it’s great.
