Hey dollies! Today, I am starting a new Star Blog segment about Stardoll's history. In this post, I will be starting off the segment with a story about how we earned free stardollars before starcoins were created, and why we have the store BASICS in starplaza. Here's the story:

PARIS—Though Dries Van Noten‘s never one to shy away from a print, the designer really went wild this season, offering a variety of patterns in a swath of colors across his gorgeous fall collection. While watching his show in Paris this afternoon, the following things popped into my head:
1. Those scarf tops from the early 90s, except so much better (and work appropriate). Van Noten printed silk blouses, skirts and trousers with navy, blue and gold prints that looked like they’d been lifted off your all time favorite scarf.
2. Katsushika Hokusai’s wave print. Though it didn’t actually show up in the collection, wave-like crests were included in the blue and orange prints.
3. Dries Van Noten fall 2010. In between the Japanese-inspired prints, Van Noten offered his favorite color combination, black, navy and army green, often over white turtlenecks and once, with a leopard print bag.
4. Japanese screens. Those black lacquered paneled screens painted with gold birds and parasol-carrying women? Hello looks 4, 6 and 8.
5. Over-sized round lollipops. Though the faded blue, orange, green and purple stripes showed up on a handful of silhouettes, the dress in look 23 made the lightbulb go off: old-fashioned lollipops!
6. The Cookie Monster! If anyone does a story on runway looks that resemble Sesame Street characters (and we mean that as a good thing), Van Noten’s third to last look, topped with a shaggy turquoise fur, will be a shoe in for the Cookie Monster.

Courtesy of Viktor Luna Season after season we continue to see Project Runway designers make impressive marks at New York Fashion Week. Mexico-born Viktor Luna, a finalist from last season, sent futuristic prints down the spring 2012 runway during the show’s Season 9 finale. For fall, Luna showcased his signature designs in a presentation styled by ANTM’s veteran judge Nolé Marin. The 31-year-old emerging designer embraced his rock-girl aesthetic throughout this collection. As a Fashion Institute of Technology graduate, Luna’s design background is apparent in his sharp blazers, and polished leathers and furs that are all tailored to perfection. His contrasting color palette of black onyx and rich textiles accentuated the collection’s silk-screened bottoms as if they were taken directly out of a work of art. The collection—with its edgy kaleidoscopic prints—is a solid sneak peek at what the most stylish personalities will be wearing this fall, or year-round for that matter. We can’t wait to see what’s next on the horizon for Luna!

Alber Elbaz is celebrating a decade at Lanvin with a party directly after his fashion show tomorrow, but he told WWD he has trouble coming up with highlights from the past ten years: “No proudest achievements. Nothing is ever enough for me. I’m always thinking what is wrong, what needs to be fixed. I feel 10 years older, but no more relaxed.” He can sum up his design mantra, however: “I always say, “If you can’t eat it, it’s not food, and if you can’t wear it, it’s not fashion, it is something else.” As for his view on celebrity dressing: “I’m against running after celebrities. If they want us, they will know where to find us. … I let them have the choice to come or not come, to be or not to be.”
