It's Not Over Until It's Over

Okay, yeah, it's over. And it was maj. 

Paris Fashion Week came, saw, and conquered my preconceptions of everything I thought I wanted to wear this fall. The best and possibly worst part of PFW is that there's something there for everyone, but not everyone gets to partake in something there. 

I think that it is fitting to end the fashion week parade with Paris, because it is, essentially, the cliffhanger of style. It keeps you thinking. 

The way I see it, New York is an embrace, London is an experiment, Milan is a performance, and Paris is an ideal. But where would we be without each of them? 

Here's my final fashion week recap, ladies and gents. Naturally I made it a contest because what am I if not a judge on the loose? I CANNOT BE TAMED.

Ready?

Best Turtleneck: CELINE

Thank you, Celine, for making all the other turtlenecks seem inadequate, and all the extra dollars seem justifiable. 

Best Dress Don't Mess: VALENTINO

I mean, can you even?

Best Footwear: ALSO VALENTINO

Heads up, women on-the-go: this is your shoe. 

Best Bling: LANVIN

Cool is right. 

Best Outerwear: CARVEN

While this coat has Natalie Joos written all over it, it will also have "In Your Dreams, Harling Ross" written all over its price tag. 

But it's still amazing. Celebratory balloon emoticons all around. 

Best Reinvention of the Pajama Trend: LOUIS VUITTON

This is what she wears when you show up at her door unannounced circa 3:00 a.m. 

Best Headwear: MUGLER

Is nun chic returning? Dammit I hope so. 

Best It Girl: ISABEL MARANT, DUH

Isabel Marant always, always, always knows what the cool chix will want before they even do. The rest of us just follow suit and try not to look awkward. LURVE FEST.

Best Fall Outfit: STELLA MCCARTNEY

If you see me wearing this on the streets of New York come September, approach me, high five me, and ask me, how??

Best Modern Miss Havisham: GARETH PUGH

The original single laydayyy. 

Best Female Female: CHRISTIAN DIOR

Here is woman being woman and doing it right. 

Best Jenna Lyons, I'm Calling Your Name: DRIES VAN NOTEN

A marriage of superior Met Gala looks. Ring ring, Jenna. 

Best Perfectly Simple: MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA

Two pieces, one love. That's how you do easy. 

Best Show in Show: KENZOOOOO

Kenzo, you are my spirit animal like whoa.
