Paris. Fash­ion Week. Fall 2012. Jew­elry on the run­way. Fist pump.

Paris Fash­ion Week is like no other — sorry New York, I love you too — the run­ways started us off with crazy notions like Limi Feu’s pearls swing­ing at lev­els lower…way, way, lower…than any­one would even think pos­si­ble. Then you have Dries Van Noten with neck pieces that fell to ballet-neckline lengths and framed the face and shoul­ders grace­fully, in spite of their gawky cir­cum­fer­ence.

So here’s a little bit of color on the 2012 Grammy Awards Red Carpet. Fergie was wearing a very orange lace dress from Jean Paul Gaultier Spring 2012 Couture collection. It’s nice to see Fergie again, and it’s even nicer to see her wearing Jean Paul Gaultier.

You could say that she was wearing black too – it’s not like she had hidden her lingerie, or something! Im thinking that matching the particularly bright dress with the particularly golden, chunky jewelry make her a hard – to – ignore presence on the Red Carpet.
