London Fashion Week: Farhi casts her vote on the runway
Filed under: Fashion, Runway Report
In the wake of what many are calling a snooze of a NY fashion week, it seems that many designers have seized upon London Fashion Week as an opportunity to branch out, try something outrageous, or even try to drum up support for their favorite candidate. Though London seems like an unlikely place to appeal to American voters, that didn't stop Nicole Farhi from replacing the traditional brooch with a "Obama '08" campaign pin.While the French designer is not a registered voter in the US, she's managed to work her way into what has to be the most intensely fashion-oriented campaign in decades. It seems like a candidate's fashion choices have become an important dimension for many sartorially-inclined voters. Obama is good-looking, McCain wears expensive shoes, Biden is a snazzy dresser, Palin is bringing back the sexy librarian look -- that stuff's important, right?
We're pretty sure that we've never seen this level of wearable propaganda in either depth or breadth. Whether its shoes, boxer briefs, thongs, glasses or hairstyles there seems to be a way to express your partisan ideology with it.

PhatGuru.com Has Released the Most Anticipated Toolbar that Benefits all Its Readers!
With the PhatGuru.com toolbar, visitors can search the web directly from the browser and enjoy the most recent and exclusive articles with just one single click of a button.
New York, NY – October 13th, 2008 – Phatguru.com is without a doubt the most unique fashion and entertainment site in the world. It is therefore fitting that we now have the most useful toolbar to compliment the site.
The recently released toolbar offers many reasons why it should appear on the top of your browser. The first benefit is having a search box in front of you at all times. Instead of having to leave your browser and open a new webpage, simply type in your desired search or keyword, and viola, a new page with search results will appear.
And for those loyal PhatGuru’ists who enjoy the constant updates of clothing sales, fashion samples, and local restaurant/bar reviews, they will now have easy and instant access. The second an exclusive coupon or sample sale is posted on the site, the toolbar will deliver it to you via a notification, thereby giving you an immediate opportunity to take full advantage.
Considering that PhatGuru is updated multiple times per day, the toolbar will keep you on your toes with minute-to-minute updates. Our new and exclusive Daily Gossip section will send you our posts immediately, and will give you a leg up in the gossip hotline. This way you don’t need to worry about missing the latest Britney development, or Lindsay Lohan circumstance!
And, as the cherry on top, the PhatGuru toolbar offers something that we all need and love: FREE pop-up blocker. Never again will you need to worry about pop-up ads, or even the ones that somehow sneak through your current blocker. With our toolbar, one can finally obtain complete control and serenity in his or her web browser.
PhatGuru has maintained its fashion-icon review status for quite some time now, and with fashion week wrapped up, one can see all of our exclusive photos and reviews; better and more diverse than any other site. Betsey Johnson, Zach Posen, Max Azria, and Diane von Furstenberg, all of these and much much more covered to the fullest on our site.
