Save Fashion returns this week and if today’s Luella news is any indication, there’s still a lot of saving to be done in this fair industry of ours. But what to buy? Here’s advice straight from some of the participants: –”I’d say the one must-have item from VC at Save Fashion is our leather leggings. Read more →
The Tribeca Film Festival hit Doha last week and my mom finally saw The September Issue. She loved Grace, loved Raquel, and wanted to know if Thakoon ever did design for Mango, and if he didn’t, who did? The only other name we remember from Anna’s list, when she sat down with Oscar De La Read more →
This past weekend, Teen Vogue hosted a Fashion University event for their readers who were eager to learn the ins and outs of the business. Not only were they given the rare opportunity to visit the magazine’s editorial floor and famed fashion closet, but they also got the chance to sit down with designers like Read more →
Last night Teen Vogue celebrated their super cute handbook with a little cocktail party at the Rose Bar at the Gramercy Park Hotel. Amy Astley and her crew were of course all there in the cozy confines, with Amy’s kids and their friends taking over the pool table. The rest of the crowd out to Read more →
So, I will admit I was kinda hoping for an Amanda Peet sighting at the Thakoon show, you know because she’s there like every season. But no dice on that front. Other than Ciara, it was actually a refreshingly celeb-free zone, considering how much attention the designer’s gotten since Mrs. O started sporting his wares. Read more →
Whitney Port, of The Hills and The City, has apparently “designed” a lipstick for Cargo. Of course, I recognize that there is PR value and it’s very lovely that a portion of the profits go to St. Jude’s. But really, I’ve always found these collaborations, if you can even call them that, rather dumb. I Read more →
The only movie that’s made me laugh harder than The September Issue this year is The Hangover. Anna Wintour is funny; my mascara is smudged from tears of laughter. The film may start out with Anna saying that fashion’s picked on because people are bitter they aren’t a cool kid, but she only gets more Read more →
Well, not exactly. But Lanc√¥me is partnering with the darling designer for the next shade in their Pout-à-Porter series. Past collaborations include ones with Behnaz Sarafpour, Thakoon, Proenza Schouler, and Peter Som. This time around the cosmetics company is giving all you guys a chance to help name the shade (which will be worn by Read more →
I watched last week’s episode of The Fashion Show (slightly annoying, but will suffice until Project Runway‘s triumphant return) over the weekend and I was stopped cold by Lidia’s unfortunate red eyeshadow. Red shadow’s been done well both editorially and on the runway – Nars’ Diane Kendal did a fantastic reddish-brown smoky eye for Thakoon’s Read more →

While we’ve always like the idea of capes, their structure has always been a little baffling. Even Britt, who wears hers no matter what her roommates say, finds the awkwardness of where to put your arms (no sleeves? Pseudo sleeves?) and temperature gauging for outside wear (50 degrees? Less? More?) to be a deterrent from Read more →
