Gaultier's Muse, Paris Spring Couture 2012: Amy

Jean Paul Gaultier took direct inspiration from Amy Winehouse for his Couture 2012 show.  Complete with on the catwalk signers belting out her tunes in that Back to Black fashion. 

The homage is endearing and a tribute to the late songstress but her family feels differently.  Recently it was revealed that they were not consulted and learned of the collection with the rest of the world.  You can't stop art and I do believe that this was done with the best of intentions - here's hoping that the collection honours her legacy (financially perhaps, JPG?).

Isn't She Lovely

Carey Mulligan covers the latest W Magazine and it's caused a stir among some celebrity and fashion bloggers.  Not celebrity fashion bloggers, or people that blog about celebrity fashion - just all the bloggers.  Following? No. Sorry...

Have a look:

So. I think that she's gorgeous.  I love her work and her sensibility. Her look is rather timeless, satisfying the 1920's flapper, 1960's mod and our current indie appetites.
