Unless, you've been living under a rock since last Fashion Week (Fall 2012), you have to have noticed the overwhelming (not to mention positively Groovy!) dose of psychedelia into Fashion. Between Prada's bright patterned suits and Louis Vuitton's mirror encrusted appliques, designers are sending a clear message that this season is no time to dress stale and mundane. The Carpetbagger is totally loving this "more is more" mentality, and can't wait to indulge in the carousel adorning trend!
According to Style.com’s Darrell Hartman, the fabulous party included
” a standing polar bear, hot air balloon chandelier, and other archival Bergdorf’s props made it seem as though they’d walked into one of the store’s famous windows. Cotton clouds hovered just below the ceiling, and event designer Bronson van Wyck explained that he’d kitted out the place with “every kind of purple flower that grows on the planet right now in the northern and southern hemispheres.”
The Carpetbagger has fingers crossed we’ll someday get to attend such a magically grand evening!

It is edgy, it is seedy and it is touristy.
