Look out Comme des Garçons, there's a new numbered fragrance in town—and this one's numerical sequence makes sense. ODIN launches its house line of fragrances, beginning with three scents for this season. 01 is "Nomad," 02 is "Owari," and 03 is "Century." Owari, we suspect, is the most mysterious scent. Bring on Thor!

Whether it's a vampire-themed movie premiere on the West Coast or the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Awards back east, Hollywood glam and starlet style were out in full force was out in full force this week. Yet again, ladies seem to be returning to the classic look. One favorite was model Jessica Stam, who attended the CFDA/Vogue fete earlier this week. Ricky Wilson for Dior Beauty, the artist responsible for the look, explained "My inspiration was a modern day Veronica Lake." Also there to honor winner Sophie Theallet, MTV's Alexa Chung went for hipster sophistication with a old-school red lip and a loose chignon. 
Meanwhile, back in LA, Twilight: New Moon premiered with a similar vibe. Vanessa Scali for Lancome, who created star Ashley Greene's look, said she was going for "Classic 60s...Well defined eyes with lots of lashes, a strong brow, and clean skin with subtle pink and coral cheeks and lips." With her pencil straight hair, Dakota Fanning, also at the premiere, looked all grown up, though her dress–a throwback to 1970s girly innocence–was pure flower child.
Sarah Howard is the editor of Beauty Banter.

Viktor & Rolf's Spring 2010 collection featured a hot pink tulle ball gown with a bite taken out of it and a purple ruff collar to make Queen Elizabeth blush. Not to imply that such a look wasn't an instant classic, but the Parisian designers have also taken on some staple looks with a soon to be launched capsule collection of five black cocktail dresses.
"Viktor & Rolf Black Dress" sounds simple, but then V&R set out to reinvent the LBD entirely. The looks are heavy on their use of illusion netting and drooping bows. But Miss Havisham, they're not. All of the garments are cleverly conceived. Some employ hand embroideries, while others rely on ingenius trompe l'oeil tailoring. Timeless was due for an update.

We opened our mail this morning to find an early Thanksgiving treat: The Row's unbound, 28-image Spring/Summer 2010 lookbook, shot by Hanna Liden, with hair by Kevin Ryan and make-up by Jeanine Lobell. Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen went native, styling their well-constructed basics as though they had sprung from the soil, with earthy body make-up and witchy, primitive hair.
We asked Ryan why in this case sticks and stones have a bone-crushing effect, in a good way:

I cant exactly remember how long I've known Zani Gugelmann. It was at least 10 years ago, and years later she confided that initially she thought I was mixed up in a crazy crowd. At the time I was sporting a metal tongue ring and as many hard-core chains as I could wear out of the house—but that's another story...
Since then Zani has come into her own. She's a classic beauty with style, and she's deeply rooted in charity. That's why even though her new line of jewelry, Santo, featuring jewelry in the shape of bullets, might sound menacing, all the pieces are affiliated with charity. Here we discuss the real meaning of the proverbial "silver bullet."
BERACASA: This line, Santo by Zani, is not your first jewelry endeavor.
GUGELMANN: I was doing a collection called Filigrana, for which I made the type of filigree earrings from Peru, where my mother is from. But it took a lot of time because I had to go back to Peru three times a year. I was dependent upon a lot of people. I started that in 2002, and after six years it's time to take the next step.
BERACASA: And so the next step was bullets as jewelry?
GUGELMANN: Basically, yes. I went from pretty, fashionable jewelry to conceptual jewelry.
BERACASA: To "kick your ass" jewelry.
GUGELMANN: From beautiful but plain and flirtatious jewelry to a hardcore bullet. Everyone is drawn to skulls, dog tags—objects that could be considered negative but are positive and glorified.
