Balmain Spring 2013
Reviews

Balmain Spring 2013

The Clothes: Sexy harlequin cartoon gangsters? From the ’90s? This is what I got from Olivier Rousteing’s spring 2013 show for Balmain. Balmain always emphasizes a strong shoulder but this time they were hugely exaggerated on extra-long blazers that came in stripes, harlequin diamonds, and a Versace/Miami-esque black and yellow print. These looks are not Read more →

Fashion News Roundup: Vogue UK EIC Pens A Novel, Tracy Reese Talks Trayvon Martin Case, and Fashion People’s Tats

Tracy Reese Weighs in on the Trayvon Martin Case: Like most of the country, the designer is outraged at the shooting of the innocent, unarmed teenage boy. She talked to Huffington Post’s Black Voices about the matter, articulating her views on the troubling assumption in our society that People of Color are always up to no good:” The whole thing is just so sad, and the excuses are so lame… White people wear hoodies too,” she said. “It’s so sad that people want to be in fear of you just because you’re a young man of color.” Couldn’t have said it better, Ms. Reese. {Huffington Post}

Vogue UK Editor-in-Chief Alexandra Shulman Releases Her First Novel: It seems every writer, journalist, or editor has a secret dream of publishing a novel, and we’re happy to see that Alexandra Shulman is one of the few who have made it a reality. Can We Still be Friends, is the story of three friends fresh from college, trying to figure out post grad life in Eighties London. Expect the novel in stores April 19. {Vogue UK}

Last Night’s Party: Dree Hemingway Fetes Her New Collection for Sandro

It seemed as though Fashion Week started two days early as the sartorially (and genealogically) blessed crowd dropped by the Sandro flagship in the West Village last night to celebrate Dree Hemingway’s capsule collection for the Parisian brand. For those who didn’t recognize the model/street-style star/designer’s famed last name, she’s the granddaughter of author and bull fighting-obsessive Ernest, and, oh yes, the fresh faced beauty is blessed with the same famed cheekbones of her mother, model/actress Mariel.

Hemingway’s ten-piece collection, inspired by her childhood days in Idaho, is quite bohemian/Southwest Americana for the French label (like a pink and tangerine tribal-print palazzo pant jumpsuit) and it was pretty refreshing to see that she chose the two most low-key pieces from the line to wear to her party.
