These are some draws of the styling I made for my most recent photoshoot. Like it? I'll show you the results as soons as I got them!

I had actually tried one of these sets before. The see-through lace shirt with the up-waist skirt. All black with pink lips... looked pretty good, I think.

And some retarded face to finish... Almost Paris! I'm excited!

Brit Awards 2010

Show-stopping: Lady Gaga drew attention to herself in a flamboyant white tiered gown and towering wig at the Brit Awards in London last night. Her onstage outfit was rather less demure as Gaga performed in a sheer bodysuit with lace detail.

Ensuring all eyes were on her, the singer sashayed confidently into London's Earls Court but it was anyone's guess as to who exactly inspired the trend.

The outfit was reminiscent of several iconic figures, including Pierrot, the melancholic clown-like mime character and 18th Century French Queen Marie Antoinette.

A  List

Leona Lewis takes a risk that pays off. She sported a funky new look in a futuristic William Tempest silver asymmetric dress, Stella McCartney heels and a studded Alexis Bittar cuff.

Playing it Safe

Not such a clever Choice

Kylie Minogue, who usually never puts a fashion foot wrong, wore an unflattering gypsy-inspired dress that failed to make the grade.

Katherine Jenkins wasn't helped by the shape and pattern of the dress.

Although Courtney Love decided to play safe this time with no defying necklines, the choice wasn't brilliant.

Hot Mess

What were they thinking? LaRoux, Natasha Khan aka Bat For Lashes and Ke$ha should sack the stylist...

RIP Alexander McQueen

On behalf of Lee McQueen's family, Alexander McQueen today announces the tragic news that Lee McQueen, the founder and designer of the Alexander McQueen brand has been found dead at his home. At this stage it is inappropriate to comment on this tragic news beyond saying that we are devastated and are sharing a sense of shock and grief with Lee's family.

RIP

Street style: loooong hair

Futuristic fashion in 2010

The futuristic influences upon fashion in 2010 are far and wide. We've seen everything from the re-interpretation of 1960s views of space age fashion (like the raised collars and metallic fabrics at Louise Goldin), through to reptilian eco-evolutionary creatures at Alexander McQueen and Julien MacDonald; while the likes of Karl Lagerfeld had metallic foil detailing which more called to mind the abstract art of the original early 20th century futurists, who revered technology and speed.

If anything the continual thread through it all is a deep contemplation about what the future might hold. There's wonder more so than excitement; and, for some, trepidation. Science, technology, and the environment - and humankind's effect on the world - are playing upon many minds. But it's not all doom and gloom. Futuristic themes can be fun and playful, as well as stark and fierce.

Street Style: look twice

No, it's not a part of the sheer clothing trend, but it's possibly equally as daring.

Even Kate Moss is "Loved"

Well... a bit too much now, uh?
