  1. Beautiful collage. The man is a genius with woman’s clothes and it’s really a shame he wasn’t honored. If I had the endless resources, I’d wear Ala√Øa all the time.

  8. This makes me wish we lived in a time when designers like him celebrated women’s bodies and made clothes for curves, instead of all the current designers making clothes for sticks. *Sigh*

  9. Funny, I just went to the new york public library and did a ton of Alaia research for myself & the blog. Will be posting these next week. Weird how Alexander Wang gets 10x more press than Alaia, who to me, is the Cristobal Balenciaga of modern day couture.

  12. Alaia is a true genius who has shaped the way women dress today. I would love to know what has been going on behind closed doors, and the reasons for such a rift between him and Wintour.

  18. these pics are amazingg, way to spread the alaia love.
    i especially bright mod dresses up there.
    i would rock that in a heartbeat.

  24. He is one of the last designers who still understands the excess in fashion, if it’s sex, or fabric experiment, or a shoe. Excess…. hmmm,mmmm

  25. Alaia is timeless. The proportions of his clothes, even from vintage scans, look just as good now as they did then.
    I wish I understood the nature of this political squabble.

  28. I freaking love it! .. the group shot of the models may well be the best ensemble model pic I have seen to date, maybe second only to the B&W Peta “we’d rather go naked…” campaign.
