The insanely popular G-Dragon of the K-pop band BIGBANG gifted Nicola Formichetti with this completely badass song for his F/W menswear collection. Lyrics: “Fuck Swag! Fuck Fashion! Fuck Mugler! Look at all the fucks I give, look what little fucks I give, Look how many fucks I give, look what little fucks I give, Look how many fucks I give, look at all the girls I fuck. (puss puss puss)” Loving the show, btw, and the pink suits. For Fall. Groundbreaking.

And here’s Azealia debuting her new seapunk hairdo at the Mugler show. Apparently it took 10 hours to do. Fabulous.

Mugler’s Nicola Formichetti partnered with gaming company CCP to create a fashion avatar for his hot zombie muse Rick Genest, then went on to design a virtual wardrobe for it. The resulting video is fascinating, and not quite as trifling as it sounds. “It’s not outrageous to think,” he explains, “that in the not-so-near future, many of us will have digital avatars of ourselves (for whatever reason) and THAT’S how we’ll interact with people. And once you have that, of course you’ll want to individualize and personalize your avatar because that is how you’ll represent yourself to the community.” Watch the “making of” video above and then see the Rico avatar stomping through a stylishly dystopian space station in his digital black leather jumpsuit below. And while I find much of Nicola’s public persona to be mean-spirited and annoying, he seems to be one of the few truly forward-thinking people in fashion and that’s pretty refreshing. Props to him.
