Quote of the Day

“Look ridiculous in the best designers’ clothes. I’ve never wanted to look cool in my life. My entire life is like a joke anyway. But I don’t like wearing costumes on the street. A costume is not fashion, and what I try to do is fashion.” –Yu Masui, aka Balenciaga Boy, on The Moment on [...]

Department Stores On the Slide

WWD just reported that the month of January saw 600,000 jobs cut from the American economy, 8,600 of which were from department stores. This news comes right on the heels of yesterday’s department store news, that the S&P’s Ratings Services has placed six department stores – Dillard’s, Macy’s, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, J.C. Penney and Sears [...]

Buy Buy Birdie
