Real Men (Don't) Wear Runway Menswear: Many of the menswear looks that are sent down runways are outrageous and unwearable, to say the least. We polled men on the streets of New York to see where, if ever, they would wear the codpieces, lace and lobster breastplates. Introducing Team USA's Glamourous Gymnasts: Gymnastics is one of our favorite Olympic events (we know we're not alone!), so after the five girls representing the US were revealed, we took a closer look at who they are and how their make-up routines stack up to their uneven bar routines. American Apparel's Latest Controversy: On Monday, we got a hold of images of American Apparel's latest ads starring a 60+ gray-haired woman named Jacky, complete with obligatory crotch shot and similarly suggestive poses. We talked to Jacky about how the whole modeling gig came about--you'll love what she had to say!

Another couture season is behind us, leaving in its wake more Dior rumors, a rare Alaia show, and lots of strange hair accessories. It was a gorgeous week for beauty, though. If nails were less-than-spectacular--we're moving towards a more ladylike manicure, perhaps--the eyes were artful and strong. Lips were mostly neutral with a few notable exceptions. And hair ran the gamut from punky to slick to softly romantic. Click through to see the best beauty looks from the Paris Fall 2011 couture shows. *Photos: Imaxtree
