Battle of the September Covers!

Lady Gaga tweeted a sneak peek of her US Vogue cover last night to her 28 million followers with the following caption:

"SHH DONT TELL TWITTER/SEPT ISSUE OF VOGUE MAGAZINE/ Sorry Anna but the underground kids deserve it. bisous!"

So now here's my dilemma, while I love that it's Lady Gaga and she is totally wearing that Marc Jacobs gown I am a little bit underwhelmed because I would have expected so much more from this cover.  The background is non-existent and does nothing in providing a comparable pairing when matched with Lady Gaga's electrifying personality.

So I'm going to let you decide which cover you think is the best between my pre-chosen winner, Daphne Groenveld on the cover of WSJ in my other post (here) versus mother monster, Lady Gaga on the cover of US Vogue:

US VOGUE: Lady Gaga

VS. 

WSJ: Daphne Groenveld

Lady Gaga's Windows at Barney's NY!

While in NYC this past week I only had a few items on my agenda and a field trip over to Barney's NY to check out Lady Gaga's Workshop was at the top.  I wasn't sure what would be waiting for me to indulge in, but I did know I would not be disappointed.  Once I stepped out of the cab on Madison Ave., I was immediately captivated by the amazing window installations that made you want to go in and experience more!

Will you be be tweeting your wishes and telling it to the constellations?

New Fashion Target Market: Prisoners?

Now that the art world has succumbed to label mania, all bets are off as to where the next generation of fashion victims will be found. But here's a clue, Winson Green (a prison in Birmingham, UK) has decided to allow inmates to wear their own clothes in an attempt to boost their self-esteem. Unfortunately, the new policy has not been met with enthusiasm from prison relatives.

"It puts an awful lot of pressure on families to buy them top-named clothing," said one wife. "The system needs to help families financially from forking out money to provide a prison fashion wardrobe. Like anything inside, it won't be long before clothes are being traded as currency or used as a status thing among cons."

Lady Gaga, with your ultra-glam depiction of life inside, I'm holding you personally responsible...
