There was a lot to like, and even more to love, on the fifth day of fashion week. Critics found it hard to pick one favorite–or even three–on a day that saw Carolina Herrera commission a capriccio, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen take on a maison particulier in the Upper East Side, Olivier Theyskens delve into retro-futurism, Phillip Lim perfect his cool-girl aesthetic and Thom Browne stage a full-on performance piece.
Wedding Bells for Kate Moss: Rocker Jaime Hince, Moss’s boyfriend of three years, reportedly proposed with a vintage 1920s rock from jeweler S.J. Phillips. Moss has been spotted flaunting the ring around town. (Although she’s been “reportedly” engaged like a gazillion times, so who knows.) {Grazia}
SoHo Gets a Fab New Neighbor: A new Helmut Lang boutique opens on February 8th on the corner of Spring and Mercer, and as if we weren’t excited enough, the store will also carry the new Theysken’s Theory collection. {Elle}
Rumor Control–Keira Knightley for Tom Ford: Despite reports that the actress had been chosen as the face of Tom Ford’s first womenswear collection, a spokesperson for the designer confirmed that the rumors are false. What a tease! {Fashion, etc}
