The way in which you absorb Prada’s resort collection may depend entirely on the depth of your love for Miuccia. The most hard core devotees will first notice the collection’s elegance, the way in which it perfects the ugly-as-chic aesthetic and, broken down, would be quite wearable. Otherwise, you may just notice the awkward way in which the models are positioned, sitting down, squishing the ladylike clothes. It’s rather unconventional for any collection to be presented with girls sitting down, for obvious reasons—skirt or dress? Hat or handkerchief? So we wondered, did anyone else take this route for resort? Turns out a few of our favorite collections went for the wacky.

Girl, the back of your head is ridiculous—and we mean that in the sincerest way possible. Texture + braids = one pretty hair party in the back (so, not a mullet). Summer shows no signs of slowing down especially at this year’s Swimwear Fashion Week. Although we adore designer Mara Hoffman and her tribally chic inspired bathing suits, we couldn’t help but be drawn to her models hair! Fishtail braids are definitely the way to go this summer. Besides keeping the summer sun off your neck, fishtail braids are so visually appealing. Follow TRESemmé stylist Elsa Canedo’s steps and you’ll have the perfect mermaid-esque hair to compliment your glistening skin.

- Making a fashion statement on the first day of school can be a difficult task to manage. If you’re looking for a stylish and bold way to make an entrance this school year, you’re sure to stand out in the crowd with these bright and fun neon pieces. But keep in mind: limit the neon to one-per-outfit. You don’t want to end up looking like a walking highlighter!

- Imagine this: you’re on vacation in some sunny place. You’ve been laying on the beach all day, soaking up rays when you decide it’s time to head back to the hotel. But not without a quick stop at the nearby shops! You bob in and out of the little boutiques when suddenly you’ve stopped. There’s a Coach bag sparkling in the sunlight, calling your name. You walk over, examine the price tag and are thrilled to see it’s cheaper than you could have ever hoped for.

In today’s weird music-meets-fashion news, Soulja Boy’s named his new EP after Bernard Arnault. Arnault, who is the chairman and CEO of LVMH and oversees Louis Vuitton, Dior, Céline and Marc Jacobs among other brands, has been in the news even more than usual given the John Galliano scandal and the open Creative Director spot at Dior. But Soulja Boy’s more concerned with real versus fake Louis than the inner workings of Arnault’s huge company. In Louis Vuitton he sings, “Louis, Louis, all she keeps saying is Louis Vuitton, Louis Vuitton, Louis Vuttion…I came out the water, LV shades on swagging cross the border…Louis, Louis…LV Bags, LV pants with that LV sag.…It don’t make no sense why they LV fake, but mine’s real,” on and on and, well, you get the idea. The best part is, as WWD points out, that he calls Monsieur Arnault Robert at least twice on the album.

Gwyneth Paltrow’s Coach ads have landed. The actress was rumored to be starring in a Reed Krakoff campaign after being spotted in New York with the designer, but Coach confirmed she’d be their international face in honor of the brand’s 70th anniversary. Paltrow’s ads will run in Europe and Asia this fall, but thanks to the Internet we’ll still see them! Peter Lindbergh shot the actress, who was just nominated for an Emmy for her role on Glee, on top of the Tudor City skyscrapers in New York.

While the rest of the world is sweating, and counting down hours to the beach, the fashion industry’s busy previewing holiday collections. So Express found a novel way to earn everyone’s attention—a giant runway show in Times Square. This Saturday, July 23rd, they’ll attempt to break the Guinness World Record for most people on a single catwalk. The record is 521 people so they’re inviting the public to participate and offering t-shirts (that say, “I was a model for a minute!”), runway photos and a shot at gift cards in return. If you’re up for a Saturday in Times Square, just show up at 7th Avenue and 43rd Street at 9AM. If you’re more interested in watching a runway show than participating in one there’s that, too. At 9PM Express will stage its holiday runway show with professional models and, if the past is any indication, a CW-star-studded front row. Photographers will be on hand shooting the runway for the campaign—so if you’ve been waiting to be discovered, now’s your chance!
