Striking while the iron’s hot, Halston announces—on the heels of Marios Schwab’s successful first collection for the label and the high-profile signing of SJP to creative-direct the heritage line—that it will develop heritage and collection lines for men, too. But, no, Stanford Blatch won’t be the creative director of those. [WWD]
Aquascutum’s Graeme Fidler and Michael Herz, the designers, respectively, of the label’s men’s and womenswear, have resigned. The heritage British brand has responded with a cool, businesslike statement on their departure. In other words: classic stiff upper lip. [WWD]
The New York Times investigates the relationship of fashion and film and finds that…well, we’re not totally clear on what they’ve found. Apparently they used to be really tight, and now they’ve kind of cooled off, but they’re still friends sometimes. Sounds just like what happened to us and our BFF in junior high. [NYT]
And WSJ’s Christina Binkley looks at the bounty of pantsuits on the runways, and sees the seventies Charlie girl and Xerox chairman Anne Mulcahy. (Even if sometimes, as at Dolce & Gabbana, they forget the pants.) [WSJ]
