If you don't know who Crybaby Presents is, get familiar. The Los Angeles-based clothing brand is known for crafting out-of-the-box garments for retro-inspired girls that never take themselves too seriously, because snobby style is simply boring. To drive Crybaby's fun-all-the-time vibe home, founders Dakota Solt and Lisa Ziven has just released an adorable new video promoting their spring/summer 2013 collection. 

Keith Haring's art is like a visual punch in the face. A true trailblazer during New York City's street culture movement in the 1980s, the inimitable graffiti virtuoso's playfully subversive imagery slapped society with a unique call-to-action that cleverly commanded open and direct discussions about sex, racism, war, power and violence. Following his untimely death in 1990 at the age of 31, the artist's signature silhouettes, iconic bold lines, and legendary phrases live on through thoughtful brand collaborations managed by the Keith Haring Foundation, as well as exclusive exhibitions at major museums across the globe.  

This is a true story. Hatsune Miku is a holographic projection and is one of Japan's biggest popstars. Known for sporting school uniforms and crazy-hued hair, this  singing synthesizer application with a humanoid persona often sells out stadiums. Louis Vuitton has been tapped to dress her.

Just like that, Nicola Formichetti has a new, high-profile gig. Hot off this week's news hat the outre stylist/designer was exiting his two-year stint as creative director of Mugler, it has just been revealed that he's been crowned Diesel's new artistic director. 

Big, big news in the world of Nicola Formichetti. Yesterday, WWD reported that, after a successful two-year stint helming Mugler, the superstylist-turned-designer would be exiting by "mutual agreement." As the industry speculates what the innovative talent's next steps will be, Formichetti explains today that he will "shortly reveal a major collaboration with Italian denim giant Diesel." Creative director, perhaps?

Hedi Slimane doesn't care if you "get it." Clearly marching to the beat of his own drum, Saint Laurent's new creative director has managed to change the iconic French fashion house's name and roll out a '90s kinderwhore-peppered collection, ruffling tons of feathers in the process. After enlisting the likes of Sky Ferreira and Beck for his campaigns, the game-changing designer is taking his love of music one step further, just in time for Coachella.

Outspoken designer-photographer-artist extraordinaire Karl Lagerfeld's super-random sketches are one of life's many pleasures.
