Manish Arora Fall 2012: Eccentric Graffiti
Manish Arora picked a theme and used it in the most bizarre fashion, far removed from what it evokes for most people. Remember last season? He claimed to be inspired by the freedom of the 1960s, and designed a collection of stiletto heels merging into ultra skinny jeans. The decade appeared in the shape of a single A-line dress (and arguably the smoking of chichas on the runway). This season, the New Delhi born designer found new inspiration for his luxurious eccentricity: graffiti art.
Throughout the show, street artists painted early 90s inspired bright letters that were to spell out ‘life is beautiful’ by the end of it. As for the clothes, they were only very loosely connected to the culture. The designs represented timeless classics, to which he gave a stylized urban nudge.

Style Battle: Nicki Minaj V. Lil’ Kim
The battle between Queens-bred lady rappers Nicki Minaj and Lil’ Kim has been raging almost since Minaj hit the scene. And the bigger Minaj gets, so too, does Lil’ Kim’s ire. Kim has been throwing jabs at Minaj for a while, peeved that Minaj hadn’t payed the Queen Bee enough “homage.” To be sure, much of Minaj’s early style–namely the Barbie fascination and the colored wigs– was clearly inspired by Kim. Minaj even cribbed Kim’s Hardcore LP cover in one of the images she used on her Sucka Free mixtape.
For the most part, Minaj has kept quiet in response to Kim’s repeated baiting of her in the press, but recently she reached her limit.
