The Blonds' "psycho beach party" themed show was inspired by Madonna's 1990s reign and the era of the supermodel, according to the designers. "It was just a fun time for music, fashion, makeup, and hair," Phillipe Blond told InStyle.com. "We are using a lot of latex. It’s just about getting in the water with your corset on and swimming with your swimming cap!" At least one fan liked it: we spotted Paris Hilton in the front row, shouting "Yes!" every time she saw a look she liked, and snapping photos on her phone. She and singer Adam Lambert (who has worn The Blonds' designs before) posed for photos before the show began.

Designer Jenny Packham told InStyle.com the inspiration behind her Spring/Summer 2013 collection: "It's inspired by a trip I had to Las Vegas with my family," she told us.

It was the essence of cool at the time." Actress Minka Kelly also told us what she loves about the designer: "I love how elegant and romantic her dresses are, how ladylike but also strong and sophisticated she is."
