Brits Still Kinky Buggers
Rubber, rubber, tea roses, and rubber sums up FrostFrench's show during another, lesser Fashion Week. With the exception of "too many lace-trimmed camisoles and one too many romper-suits," FrostFrench, designed by British It Mothers Sadie Frost (soon-to-be ex of Jude Law) and Jemima French, kept tabloidy friends off the catwalk and let Primrose dresses and rubberwear do the talking. Full Collection Here.

Politics No-So-Secret Ingredient In UK Fashion Week Opener
Fashion fans urged pithy designer to save it for someone who cares. Upstart Polish seamster Arkadius Weremczuk offered backless skirts, Arabic/Hebrew alphabet tattoos, and a wedding dress patterned with bloody doves in an effort to unite the world in peace. "This show is to do with the politics of the world, to do with how the Middle East is treated by the so-called West." Until Arkadius can come up with something better than "Not the East" or "To the Left of the Right," MegaStyles suggests sticking to thimble and thread.

Orange Leather, Leon, and Angry Publicists: E! Fashion Police Rides Again
Joan Rivers joined forces with the usual suspects last night for a post-Emmys fashion wrap-up. The cast of characters included long-suffering daughter Melissa, Leon Hall, the runt of the Regis look-alike litter, and mystery guest Steve Harvey, who nobody asked to come and who was twice removed from the proceedings. Thankfully, MegaStyles's favorite fashion director and style simpatico Hal Rubenstein was on hand to do an emergency rundown. Style band-aid Hal's time was limited, but he stuck around just long enough to reaffirm Jennifer Garner's striking resemblance to a Dallas QB, nixing the little girl party dresses with those delts of steel.

Safe Until the Next Red Carpet: Kim Catrall and Courtney Thorne-Smith, Joan's picks for best-dressed.
Run, Hide, Bury All Suit-matching Flat Caps: Joe Pantoliano, everybody's pick for worst-dressed.

Quotes:
"She's all about the bling-bling"
-Leon on Everybody Loves Raymond granny, Doris Roberts
"A ding-dong winner."
-Joan on Courtney Thorne-Smith
"A contestant for Miss Gay America."
-Leon on Paula Abdul

About MegaStyles

Meghan Stier was a New York fashion editor until she moved to Cambridge, MA and decided to become a doctor. She, along with her new Birkenstock fetish, is working on her post-baccalaureate and has cancelled her Vogue subscription, although she still watches E! sometimes a lot.

She thinks Shakespearean characters make great names for pets, dislikes mesh Chinese slippers, and would like to make homemade mayonnaise one day but wonders if mayonnaise merits such effort.
