More evidence that the boyfriend blazer will still be relevant in 2010, from DRIES VAN NOTEN. For a new twist, wear it falling off one shoulder.

Add to your To Do list for 2010: 1. Buy cycling shorts 2. Get own name tattooed on neck. Thanks, JEAN PAUL GAULTIER.

Cute leather smock at CELINE.

Even head honcho Hannah McGibbons was all white on the night at CHLOE.

HUSSEIN CHALAYAN cheekily inverts the unbuttoned shirt in knicker-revealing style. ELIE SAAB’s LBDs were angular and jewel-heavy. I suspect Swarovski must have been involved.

This look just makes me go OMG I <3 it so bad!!1! Off-the-shoulder sleeves made out of bows + a tiny swishy skirt + sparkly socks + stompy heels = to DIOR for.
