Project Runway

…makes its season four debut on November 14, 2007.
Can’t wait.

Pop! Pop! Pop!

Bright, showy colors in rich, flowing fabrics are calling. And Jil Sander answered. The Fall trends of bright color will continue into the Spring if one is to look at what Raf Simon offered the public. What’s great about the collection is that even though the hues are eye-popping, the tailoring is subdued. It’s what’s [...]

It’s Alice Temperley

About a month ago, I wrote that Erin Fetherston would be creating a collection for Target’s GO. International. I read this news on Target’s own press page. While it is true that she is designing a line for Target, it won’t hit stores until November (a misreading on my part). Instead, it is Alice Temperley, [...]

The Ooh!s and Oh no!s of the Emmy Red Carpet

What’s the most important part of the prime time Emmys (or of any awards show, for that matter)? The red carpet, of course. Tonight was no exception. I can’t tell you who won what award, but I will point out the dresses that I liked and the dresses that I wasn’t crazy about.

From H&M comes COS

COS, Collection of Style, is the newer line available through H&M, the bastion of inexpensive trends. The first COS store opened this past spring in March. What they offer are classic staples that one could use as companion pieces to the more trendy wares that H&M produces.
Saturday began London Fashion week, and COS showed its [...]

Inspiration Throwback

When it comes to style, Paris fashion seems to be an inspiration for a number of designers. This season is no exception. Between Paris-based Catherine Malandrino and London-based Alice Temperley, both of whom showed in New York, there was attention given to overtly feminine silhouettes (Malandrino) and a hearkening to an era gone by (Temperley). [...]

This show’s a keeper

Tonight was the debut of Tim Gunn’s Guide to Style on Bravo. There are not enough words in the English language to express how much I respect Tim Gunn’s thoughts on style. I even bought his book this summer. He’s quite the erudite fellow. The show, in my opinion, is a bit different than the [...]

Halfway There: New York Fashion Week

New York Fashion Week is well underway. Many designers have brought their creations out for fashion-minded folks to ogle, to write about, to contemplate purchasing, or simply to purchase. Thus far, I’ve perused the designs of Adam Lippes (ADAM), Badgley Mischka, Erin Fetherston, BCBG Max Azria, Charlotte Ronson, and Lela Rose. From the looks of [...]

Whet Your Appetite

While New York Fashion Week kicks off in two days, Australia’s Motorola Melbourne Spring Fashion Week began today. The toast of the week is young designer, nineteen-year-old Jacqui Krivitsky for Jacqui Alexander.

She is the youngest designer in Australia. Her collection is awash in beautiful shapes and sweeping curves as well as in bold colors.
