at bg, three hosts are better than one

Friday night’s cocktail party at Bergdorf Goodman’s Men’s Store in New York was a style-minded threesome put on by British retailer Bamford, Wallpaper magazine, and Bergdorf’s. In honor of the week’s big design act—the International Contemporary Furniture Fair, which kicked off Saturday at the Javits Center—the trio collaborated on window and in-store installations that married furniture from the IFCC with men’s and women’s looks from Bamford’s Spring ‘08 collection and art from the June issue of Wallpaper. “I feel like we’re in the right place at the right time,” the magazine’s editor-in-chief Tony Chambers, fresh from London, said of fashion and design’s increasingly symbiotic relationship. “Both sides are fascinated by and learn from each other.” Further proof of the love was Chamber’s answer to the design world’s biggest trend. “Sustainability,” he said unequivocally. Looks like fashion’s latest buzzword is set to become a permanent part of the style lexicon.
