Starchitects Attack

chuck bass meet frank gehry.jpgPhilippe Starck’s getting into the sweater business.

He’s partnered with Ballantyne, the beloved Scottish cashmere company, to build a series of cashmere sweaters. The limited edition collection will hit Ballanytne stores in the UK come October but no word on when, or if, they’ll be available stateside. Is it too much to ask for expertly sculpted shoulders and tiny waists of cable knit?

The news comes right after WWD announced that Frank Gehry’s designed a couple of shoes for French shoe company J.M. Weston, including a pair of black and white buttoned booties which were clearly made for one man and one man only (see left).

So when do they announce Christophe Decarnin’s plans to build a skyscraper?

he is a nice enough guy and dresser, but why must you post him in so many newsletters?

my fav thing about him is how he rocks out to kings of leon, and his heart break hotel tattoo, which he will gladly show you if you ask, lol!
