Word on the grapevine is that Thierry Mugler is planning a complete ready-to-wear comeback in Paris next year.
While presenting his latest creations, under the creative guidance of Rosemary Rodriguez, in Moscow this week (left), Fashion Week Daily is reporting that it could be a preview of what's to come.
They say: "Mugler has privately set next October as the re-launch date for the ready-to-wear effort - to be shown in Paris - with Rodriguez fully in charge."
Mugler pulled the plug on his couture line in 2003 to focus on his fragrances and designing extraordinary costumes for Beyonce.
His fashion house was revived in 2008 with Rodriguez at the helm, producing menswear and a couple of capsule womenswear collections. Now it looks like it could be full steam ahead for the French designer in Paris come next October.

If you were a pop princess in need of help to style your next album cover, who would you call? Well, if you're Leona Lewis it would be Dame Vivienne Westwood that's who!

Designed especially for the X Factor winner, each dress features a wasp-waisted, boned leotard and corset, and crinoline-style skirt.

It's official - Lady Gaga is a muppet.
Although some might genuinely think this of the wacky songstress, I can't think of anyone more suitable to wear Jean-Charles de Castelbajac's autumn/winter 2009-10 collection. While in Germany this weekend, Gaga donned a fuzzy monster-style dress and a cape created from dead Kermits during a TV interview - you can watch that interview after the jump. But it was this complete tent ensemble that has left us most speechless. Has Gaga gone too far this time?

Jean Paul Gaultier switched on the glamour for his couture show, as models strutted out in retro red-carpet gowns and luxurious furs.
There was a hint of futurism, but that too was seen through sepia lenses. The art deco cagelike structures and spaceman quilting hinted at films like Metropolis and Hollywood's golden age of movie-making. Overalls are big news, and they were given the JPG touch in crocodile skin or jewels while angular tailoring made the most of trenches and one-shouldered dresses carried on the glam theme.

The Couture shows start today in Paris, but while we wait excitedly for those images to trickle through feast your eyes on our Resort Rundown.
Resort & couture give us a mini fashion fix before the A/W collections debut in September, expect OTT and high drama from couture, but resort is a simpler, more low key affair. It's a fashion treat for your Monday where big names like Louis Vuitton and Givenchy jostle for space with some of the more unfamiliar designers like Richard Chai, great for getting that summer feeling!

It feels like only yesterday (in fact it was in May) that we were telling you about Ann-Sofie Back being appointed creative director of Cheap Monday. Returning to Stockholm, the former London-based designer has just unveiled her début Spring 2010 collection, which was opened by Swedish top model Caroline Winberg (above, left).
