Down Under With Steven Alan

photo courtesy WWDI’ve already professed my deep love for all things Australian. Apparently Steven Alan shares my opinion. He’s currently working on a project with V Australia (that’s Richard Branson’s new airline, not a spin-off of the magazine) where he’s creating the “perfect” travel bag.

People Are Talking

A Sartorial Conundrum

So our friends over at our sibling site, Above The Law, came to us this afternoon with a little situation.

Life With Steven Alan! Part I

Steven Alan might be the trickiest Life With subject yet. He doesn’t just design men’s, women’s and children’s collections; he doesn’t just run a showroom representing over twenty of New York’s hippest designers; and he doesn’t just operate ten of his own stores – he also hangs out with his seven-year-old son.They like to eat Read more →

Let’s call it The Sartorialist Effect: After years of tiny flowers dotting the fabric of Paul Smith shirts, the motif seems to be stretching into more men’s fashion – most specifically, and surprisingly, into men’s streetwear. You can find floral guys’ shirts at H&M now, and floral ties at Steven Alan and Urban Outfitters. But Read more →
