Fashion Goes Au Natural

Long gone are the days of clumpy lashes, gooey foundation, and metallic heavy eyelids; take a deep breath with clean minimalistic makeup. No red lips or over the top blush was needed for Christian Dior Couture, which showed that fresh lips, nude eyelids, and a hint of blush can go a long way.

Christian Dior Couture makeup artist Pat McGrath calls this minimalist makeup trick “very fresh.” This makeup approach is very fresh indeed, as nude hues seem to be the rage from makeup to clothing racks. Clothing collections in 2012 featuring an array of designers are showing that they can do nude in a rainbow of choices. Zac Posen sent formfitting garments down the runway, leaving little to the imagination. Francisco Costa sent sheer nude dresses down the runway, once again stating that Calvin Klein has the minimalist trend in the bag. The barely there (and barely seen) Calvin Klein pieces whispered thoughts of chic feminine qualities and lingerie-like delicate designs. From makeup to clothing, there is no reason not to go au natural.

Cubs: The New Stars in Fashion

Take out your latest January cover of Harper's Bazaar and look in almost every fashion magazine you own for the current Bvlgari ad campaign and what do you see? Little cubs. Lion cubs and jaguar cubs... nestled in the arms of model, Lily Donaldson and actress, Julianne Moore. I wonder if this will be a new trend.

Ironically, about the Bvlgari ad is that the billboard was banned in Venice, Italy because of Julianne Moore's nudity. The photo was named "too racy and inappropriate" according to The Huffington Post.

Cubs are cute! And you can barely see her body! I find the concept artistic and beautiful, especially because of her pale skin against the colors around her. I see nothing wrong with this. Of course I was thrown off at first, but these ads stand out. They do not blend in with other brands.

CHAOS loves Max!

We sure do! Max Sokolov, 25 is a nimble thing hailing from the icy streets of Russia. A former dancer by day and model by night, this 6'1 statuesqe red version of David is sure turning heads and grabbing this bloggers attention at a high frequency. You can see him dancing his way through the pages of nearly every gentleman's fashion magazine poised in barely there garbs from Hugo Boss, Paul Smith and a very effeminate cape sponsored by Yves Saint Laurent. With the ample amounts of exposed tush and some nondescript bush, who cares who he's wearing? Chaos-Mag.com gives this Soviet a firm salute!

Dance Like No One's Watching

How does rocking out in the nude sound? Not realistic in most urban areas unless you plan on getting gang raped in the corner of Marquee, or better yet, kidnapped by two guys and never to be found. That's a true story too, happened recently. Creeeeeepy. Though I am pretty sure she wasn't wearing this dress, so rest assure. Yikes! One nights stands are risqué, I mean you can't possibly find out if the hot model dude you're talking to isn't a complete psychotic lunatic in the span of 2-3 hours. All right, moving on... 

How often do you get to dance around naked without getting uh, arrested? Yea, we don't do it. Well, maybe you would if you're on acid and at some hippie gathering called Burning Man (sorry) other than that, you'll probably be arrested. If you still want to let loose you can dance naked. Well, in this completely rad super sexy 100% silk dress by Vena Cava's Lisa Mayock and Sophie Buhai. This one is definitely a true collector's piece, you want it in your closet. The dress comes with printed hang tags together with edition number. Nude in color, slight cap sleeve, and obviously a nude female image, both from side and backside. Yea baby, you're naked all around! Sorta reminds me of those terrible swim suit cover ups you see older women wearing at the beach, yea,  you remember? Hah! This however, is more sexy and on a completely different level, I think I might rock it just to see the effect I'd have walking around the Meat Packing on a Tuesday night.
