Dion Lee on His Shoe Collaboration with Kanye West: ‘I Didn’t Want to Make a Big Deal Out of It’

by

It’s safe to say we kind of have a teeny crush on Aussie designer Dion Lee: Besides the fact that he makes sleek clothes for super cool girls, he is adorably charming in person. So when we heard he would be in New York City showing his resort collection, we popped by for a look and to chat with the designer, whose global star is on the rise.

Lee showed for the first time outside of Australia last season in London, where he staged a small presentation for fall. While the Sydney fashion industry was disappointed to have lost him in their fashion week lineup, Lee explained that showing in his hometown would have meant staging three presentations in one year and that he wanted “concentrate on the clothes” instead. He confirmed to us that he’ll be showing again in London in September, but this time it will be a full-on runway show.

Tom Ford on How ‘Breast Implant Style’ Is Taking Over the World and Why Wearing Tight Pants Helped His Career

by

The first-ever stand-alone menswear shows are happening in London this week, and no dapper guys’ gathering is complete without an appearance by Tom Ford. And according to a tweet by Derek Blasberg, he’s not afraid to offer royalty some grooming advice:

Just met Prince Charles. Charming, jolly fellow. Tom Ford suggested (to him, mind you) a new cuticle cream. Its official: I’m a royalist now

How exactly did that happen? Ford shook the Prince’s hand, noted his cuticles were dry, then tactfully suggested the cream? Dying here. Anyway, the designer sat down with Grazia‘s style director Paula Reed in London for a chat, and as usual, he was pretty charming and open. Despite having just heard his entire life story when he sparred with Fern Mallis a few weeks ago, we still learned some more about his career and as usual, we love how entertaining he is. From Americans’ crappy style to the power of tight pants, Tom Ford keeps it real. Click through to read the highlights and here to read the whole thing.
