Balmain's Main Man...Leaving?

Christopher Decarnin, one of YEOJ's favorite designers is ending his 6 year stay with the design house label. The only reason released is that it is just "the end of the collaboration." This is a shock because he has made the brand so fabulous these past years. Critics have made remarks about this haute rock n' roll brand as borderline trashy with all of the glitz and glamour. According to YEOJ the critics are tasteless...YEOJ is a  critic and YEOJ loves it and Christopher. There hasn't been a replacement made for Balmain but we at YEOJ hope it is someone with the talent as the magnificent Mr. Decarnin. 

OLSEN Textile Launch

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen just launched their textile line this past week for Elizabeth and James. There was a The Beverly Hills Hotel party in Los Angeles the other night and they said the line is going to be a "more casual, lifestyle version" of their other brand The Row. These girls are certainly not taking any breaks in the fashion industry any time soon. They are CFDA nominees for womenswear of the year award. There is no slowing down for these two major fashion forces. YEOJ is excited to see the rise and rise of their creativity. 

YVES SAINT LAURENT

Stefano Pilati created the most intricate detailed collection with a mix of structure that still has a girlish quality...mixing bold and neutral colors is all we have to say for your next shopping adventure.

MUGLER

Creative Director, Lady Gaga's Fashion Stylist, and one of our greatest Idol's in the fashion industry; Nicola Formichetti created the most exhilarating collection during this past fashion week. This fabulous collection brought MUGLER into recognition again for this decade. So inviting. The mix of Black and Brights are a MUST for Fall 2011. Oh...and get yourselves some Stilts Girls...Platforms are Here to Stay!

CHANEL

Mr.Karl Lagerfeld's latest CHANEL Collection that was just shown at Paris Fashion Week was quite different from all the other CHANEL collections in the past. This was a much darker themed show, yet still mixed with the classic tweeds. Such a great collection. YEOJ's Top 10 Favorite Collections of all fashion weeks for Fall 2011 Womenswear!
