Well Shod, Well Imformed

BIRDS OF A FEATHER…

The only question Imelda wants to ask (about Gareth Pugh’s S/S 10 collection), is how long until we see Lady Gaga rockin’ out this Easter bonnet? 

HARE APPARENT

This afternoon at Louis Vuitton, Gareth Pugh and his new Over Lord, Bernard Arnault dished up another high profile bitch slappn' to Dior Homme Creative Director, Kris Van Assche. ENOUGH ALREADY!!! 

Make the call so we can all move on...Imelda can't help but to speculate, are LVMH staff are subjected to such torturous public ridicule? 

CLICK TO ENLARGE...IT'S A WHOLE LOT FUNNIER!

DESPOTIC FROCKS TAKE ON™ GARETH PUGH

Pouf up your papillon sleeve's because the Despotic Frocks are back and ready to take on Gareth Pugh.

 

Despite the diabolical time difference (5pm Paris, 4pm London, 12am Manila and 3am Sydney), the Despotic Queen, Frockwriter and Third World's Favorite Fag, Bryan Boy are reuniting for the Paris collections. I've slipped into my petty pants and Yum-Yum's brewing my coffee enema...are you ready for La Chic?

UPDATED

After being roused from my crypt at 2.50am to discover SHOWstudio were jerking us off with a video presentation of Gareth Pugh’s hotly anticipated A/W 09/10 show, the Despotic Queen is steaming like a cow patty in the midday sun.

SHOWstudio had posted the following (somewhat misleading) statement on their site "we will be offering our viewers the exclusive opportunity to watch Gareth Pugh's eagerly-awaited Autumn/Winter show, live on SHOWstudio".

Prior to the broadcast my co-hosts of DESPOTIC FROCKS TAKE ON™ (Patty and Bryan) attempted to clarify with SHOWstudio ‘how live was live’. A tight-lipped staffer advised both to ‘wait until 4pm’, so wait we did…and waited and then waited some more. Finally we received confirmation from Sonny Vandevelde (who is in Paris covering the shows) that ‘show’ was actually a ‘video’ presentation.

In retrospect I should have twigged when Grazia_Live tweeted “OMG! Matthew Williamson for H&M samples JUST arrived in the office: love bright pink tulip dress, peacock motif necklace & studded belts!!!” instead of “blah, blah, something about waiting for the Pugh show to start”.

Anyhoo, when they finally got around to pressing play on the DVD player it was a stunning visual feast that assaulted senses - I suggest multiple viewings.The Bubble-licious Susie who was on the ground covering the ‘live screenings’ for Dazed Digital posted “Dare I say better than if he had done a show”.

Since SHOWstudio won’t be issuing an apology, Patty, Bryan and Imelda aka DESPOTIC FROCKS TAKE ON™ are - should anyone have followed our directive and sat up until 3am waiting for a catwalk show we are truly sorry.
