Well hello internets. How are you doing? Fine without me? Of course you are. I haven't been here recently due to some.. lazyness? Live updates and posting was going so smoothly at the beginning of fashion month but I was just left behind after New York and Milan and couldn't reach London and Paris, like some remora who couldn't suck hard enough to its shark's belly. I guess missing Miu Miu's livestream didn't help either. As disencouraging as that might be, here are some completely random highlights with no chronological/any kind of order whatsoever. Such as 
The Balenciaga shoes. Made me think of the elaborately random architecture found in some buildings here. Furthermore, the Balenciaga eyebrows
And behold, the Balenciaga vest
Chanel brought its recurrent fashion-weather incongruence of furry ski boots and bare legs(besides the 265 ton glacier which we don't talk about)
And so did D&G
The Miu Miu shoes below
at first looked to me like some Carrie-Bradshaw-shoe-fetish cliché but then I understood their classy shape feeling and now my thoughts went to Versus:
designed by Donatella Versace and Christopher Kane. Very origami-like and short but classy which is very hard to see, and speaking of Christopher Kane, below
He's known for making amazing collections with elements that are not usually related to high couture and this time was no exception with a knitted-flower-on-leather concept in which the flowers alone were actually not that pretty but somehow worked on a whole new level here.
Anyway.. I enjoyed Viktor & Rolf's performance in which they sent model Kristen MecNamy with a pile of coats on and then took them off from her and put them on the other models.
Besides they booked my recent Puerto Rican supermodel obsession Rose Cordero (bottom right). Watch the Viktor & Rolf show here. And now all the blackness brings me to Giorgio Armani's glamorous berets And as the blackness goes on, reminiscences of Hermès come to me in the form of Lily Cole looking very 1800's and equestrian
And also black was what the army of bare-legged models wore at Dolce & Gabbana
On the other hand, Versace was extremely colorful and electric
and it's also intriguing how clothes look different depending on who the photographer is, this was taken at the Versace rehearsal by Tommy Ton a.k.a. Jak&Jil blog... it has a glossy misterious atmosphere not seen at the runway. Speaking of glossy, Hussein Chalayan I also missed Hussein Chalayan's livestream because I didn't believed this crappy photo collage but then it turned out to be true and then it was all black and I woke up without a soul. I like the nebulose thing and of course Rose Cordero (left). Louis Vuitton was a circular fountain around which the models walked in very lady-like dresses and waist-high skirts and model Coco Rocha is just so refreshing to see through the water beams so she'll be the star with the purple dress in the LV photos. As the bareness seems to end, Etro always works for me.
By "works" I mean a wide variety of prints and fabrics very well toned by a carefully chosen color palette. Besides being able to actually know how to pull velvet.
And last but absolutely not least, in fact FIRST, Alexander McQueen

...Now I wish there was some leather. Is everyone pretending not seeing Carmen Kass' pussy? Because it's making me very uncomfortable.
"Oh Grace it's been awful! I really did thought I could squeeze Milan Fashion Week into three days but time-space is not cooperating. And guess what? It turns out I DO need designers, as they need me! Shit.. what's next? Will fashion become a democracy and get a replacement for me?"
This photo was taken by Bryanboy, (who lost his cellphone a few hours ago). Anywho since Honduran government has no logical priorities whatsoever they decided to fix some electric poles around my house during Gucci's live-streamed show, and so no electricity = no computer/internet = no Gucci, and also no food, heat, ironing or many other less important things. But fear not 'cause there's an art center near downtown where I can use the computers and I got just in time to watch Freja Beha opening the runway 
The entrance was amazing: Loungy synth music playing, lights faded very slowly to total darkness and after a few seconds bam! Freja stood suddenly illuminated in this beige dress and then it all started. By "all" I mean a lot of fur and asymmetry and waist-high pants. Yes. Waist-high. As in,
It was all so comfortable. And earthy-colored. And "I'm the wife or a millionare who yells in Italian while I drink my martini by the pool" And absolutely A+ like Tavi would say.
Specially since a certain supermodel walked not one (up in the beige dress), nor two
But THREE times
About the show, models seem to have a better chance at understanding "X" rather than the "≠" shaped Prada runway, and those frightened model faces I said I saw in my last post was actually model Rose Cordero's face.
On the clothes, the flat black boots looked like fun, as in teenage girls holding umbrellas jumping in the mud after the rain.
Also the shoulder/skirt layers were interesting, and at some point the baggy minimalism and tight ponytails whispered to me "Yes I come from the 90's future". Indeed. Very pro of me. Vogue should hire me 'cause I can quote the past.
And to prove that those people sitting front row do not get there accidentally, here's a video by Joe Zee.
