A new year mean’s a new Queen’s Honors List. This week, Queen Elizabeth announced a handful of fashion favorites including Stephen Jones – the man behind hats for Marc, Galliano, Giles and Commes des Gar√ßons to name a few, and Mark Jones, the director of the Victoria & Albert Museum (which launched a Stephen Jones [...]

We’ve been far too selfish in grieving Luella. We completely forgot having announced, just the day before, that Liberty had invited her to decorate their holiday windows and curate an in-store pop-up shop.

Whether you’ve started working Bing Crosby onto your iPod or you’re firmly clinging to fall, you can’t ignore the holidays, and they’re coming especially quick this year.

If Liberty and Target pair up, like they’re rumored to, the world of mass collaborations will reach an insanely new transatlantic high. Both stores, one the epitome of London cool and the other the epitome of American mass consumerism, have enlisted creative superstars to work on their projects for the past few years. Liberty’s hosted [...]

The next Fashion Week rumor will be a good one, we swear, Because we just got word that Ali Michael’s sitting this one out, too and next to Marc‘s cutbacks and Abbey‘s knees and Alex‘s lack of parties, well, this is just depressing. Lucky for Ali there’s no surgery on the horizon. In fact, if [...]
