WHO? Vivienne Westwood Red Label

IN A NUTSHELL: Ethereal and nymph-like, but Westwood style. These Spring/Summer styles had attitude.

BEG, BORROW OR STEAL: As always, Westwood's tailoring was the highlight of her collection, but the use of softer shades (pale blues and light grey), turned sharp suits on their head. This was playful power-dressing. Other favourites included boyfriend cardigans worn as belted dresses, oversized denim shirts, dropped-waist silk sun-dresses and a cherry red, cleavage-boosting, strapless gown. We also can't fail to mention the cute, leather clutches, studded with the Westwood emblem.

F-ROW: Jacquetta Wheeler, Erin O'Connor, Pamela Anderson, Paloma Faith, Sadie Frost, Tracey Emin, Kelis

VERDICT: Westwood's contrasting patterns, shapes and textures looked all the more wearable in pastel and neutral tones. Yes, the incredible hair and makeup always adds to the spectacle of the show, but each and every design screamed look at me, in its own, unique way.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley goes nude at the Burberry Body party

Showing off quite a lot of her famous Burberry Body, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley opted for a nude, lingerie-adjacent slip dress for the brand's Los Angeles party on Wednesday night.

To be honest, we're not entirely convinced that it's not lingerie, or at least a nightgown. Anyway, minimal makeup and jewellery (in fact, no accessories beyond that 'it's not an engagement ring, honest' ring) plus some nude strappy heels completed the stripped-down look and showed off the fab figure which landed her the Burberry job in the first place.

Looking gracefully at Kate Moss being a graceful supermodel!

For Chanel's Fall 2011 eyewear collection, Karl Lagerfeld turned to one of Chanel's most iconic fixtures: the chain. Used to reinterpret classic Chanel eyewear shapes — aviators, square frames, cat-eyes — the chains are woven with lambskin leather and come in muted Fall hues like wine, taupe and navy. For the ad campaign, Lagerfeld employed another Chanel classic: long-time muse Claudia Schiffer. See all five of the Lagerfeld-shot ads here.

Our famed designer: Karl Lagerfeld (is soooo cute without his sunglasses)!

>> It's a rare moment when Karl Lagerfeld is without his sunglasses. Watchers of the documentary Lagerfeld Confidential have had the opportunity to see the designer sketch, sunglasses off, on film since it premiered a few years ago, and over the weekend, Lagerfeld was snapped in Saint Tropez with his bodyguard Sebastien Jondeau, eating at a cafe without his usual eyewear.
