"Between couture fashion and street fashion, there is a certain continuity. It's great to go to London's Camden Market or downtown New York and see what the kids are wearing," she says. "Today, you don't even have to travel to do this; all you have to do is look at fashion blogs."
"On one site you might see a hipster in Williamsburg, New York, for example, in very tight, very shrunken jackets and trousers, and then you jump to another and see a different type of person wearing an oversized shirt, belted with silver tights. It's like a bunch of ad-hoc experiments going on all the time."
With the media focusing increasingly on which celebrities are wearing which labels - or, indeed, collaborating with them - seeking out individuals with style is more refreshing than ever before, Guinness adds.
"Celebrities almost never look good unless they are 'out' at something or other, while real fashion animals always look a little interesting, even if they are only going to Starbucks. Individuality will always exist," she asserts. "It's more that it has become very underground and doesn't infiltrate the mainstream as much as it should, so you have to search it out, which is getting more difficult, but also more rewarding."
"It's exciting to see people inhabit their look, wearing clothes from morning to night. Fashion at its most interesting and purposeful, whether it's the most expensive clothes being made or the least expensive, is not about showing off - it's about creation."
Michael Kors as James Stewart as L.B. Jeffries in Hitchcock's Rear Window
The men took to the silver screen for inspiration, while others channeled forces of nature, animals and royalty. Armani played the role of Fred Astaire, Kors took on James Stewart's L.B. Jeffries character from Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window, Elbaz reinvented himself as a Hollywood producer with James Bond flair and Cavalli went Gone with the Wind as Rhett Butler; he was shot embracing Coca Rocha as Scarlett O'Hara.Karan embodied a hurricane and Facchinetti dressed up as Pierrot, while the Mulleavys came out as black cats on Halloween. Lagerfeld became a rapper, complete with Phat Farm jeans and untied shoelaces. "Believe it or not, I love rap," he told Bazaar. Versace indulged her regal aspirations in a shot straight from The Princess and the Pea. "I am not a great believer in fairy tales. Every woman should fight hard for her own happy endings," said Versace, who was perched atop a pile of mattresses. "Although occasionally, it is nice to wake up as a princess."

Mouse, Spray & Braids ~ Oh My!
Fergie Rocks Super Cute Fishtail Braids at Teen Choice Awards Show
Redken full frame 07 protective volumizing mousse
This provided lots of body and volume but also smoothness and shine, which allowed an easier time to create the fish tail. Morales then rough-dried the hair to keep Fergie’s natural texture.
She started the braid by creating a low ponytail at the nape of the neck with a center part, then proceeded to create her fish tail securing with elastic then wrapping Fergie’s own hair around it.
Redken workforce 09 flexible volumizing spray
Morales pulled pieces in the front to shape Fergie’s face and kept the braid to the side and over her shoulder. Morales finished off with Redken workforce 09 flexible volumizing spray, for hold and added shine.
