Inspiration: The Gamma Rays

After clicking through some of the looks from the recent couture shows, I went back and reviewed some of my favorite collections from Fall 2009. I was drooling over the combination of studs and sequins at Balmain and reminiscing about Michael Jackson‘s foray into French ready-to-wear when I made a startling connection:

Err…has Christophe Decarnin been watching Spike Lee joints? Does he sing (and dance) along to “Be Alone Tonight” in the shower? Does he secretly wannabe a Wannabe?

Let it suffice to say that this particular scene is one of my favorites, and I welcome any reason–no matter how gratuitous–to post it.

Now that you’ve witnessed the fabulousness first hand, here’s what I want you to do:

1. Find yourself a silver and black dress.

1. Dress, Perk Up Vintage 2. Dress, Dena’s Vintage Closet 3. Dress, Shrinkle on etsy

2. Download the Be Alone Tonight song.

3. Keep watching ’til you learn the moves.

And lipsynch in the mirror along with me.
