Milan up-and-comer Francesco Scognamiglio might not yet be a household name, but it looks like the stars are aligning for him—literally. Madonna and Chloë Sevigny have already worn his frocks, and we hear that three major pop stars all called dibs on this draped goddess dress from his Spring 2010 show. Long story short, the [...]

Justin—er, William Rast—fans, rejoice. Timberlake and partner Trace Ayala are setting up shop in L.A.’s Westfield Century City shopping center this November, adding William Rast’s debut outpost to a list of retail hot spots including Louis Vuitton, Juicy Couture, and Zara. And, good news for East Coasters: This is just one of 40 planned William [...]

For reasons we mostly cannot elaborate, the Erin Wasson x RVCA extravaganza at the Bryant Park tents tomorrow night promises to be memorable. There’s a band playing, but we can’t say which one. An out-of-the-box A-list celeb is due to attend, but we can’t say who. And there’s going to be a gigantic film projection—and [...]

As the decade draws to a close, it seems fair to wonder: What was aughts fashion? What was memorable? What will embarass us when we look back at photos twenty, thirty years hence? What was significant, in that it changed the way we shop or dress? Another magazine’s forthcoming issue takes a stab at the [...]

If Francesco Scognamiglio’s newish association with the classic Italian outerwear maker Allegri had followers like Chloë Sevigny, Alice Dellal, and Madonna worried that he’d lose his edge, the video he gave Style.com a sneak peek at above should dispel any concern. In it, model Hannelore Knuts, sporting a peak-shouldered camel coat, a belted knit dress [...]

You know what I’d like? A locker. Wouldn’t it be great to have someplace convenient to stow your stuff—gym clothes, a pair of flats, some Balance bars, that copy of Infinite Jest you’ve been nibbling at on the subway? That’d lighten the load. I’d also like to receive an allowance for doing my chores: washing [...]

Accessories, I am sorry to report, do not get a good shake from the Great Thinkers. Seneca, for example, said, “They that mistake life’s accessories for life itself are like them that go too fast in a maze.” John Lennon posited that drugs are accessories to normal living, in a society too cruel to be [...]

Sure, it was the slightest bit on the cool side last night, but was it nippy enough for a leather jumpsuit? Yes, according to Chloë Sevigny, who wore a tough-chic belted black leather jumpsuit to Proenza Schouler’s celebration of their A Magazine #9. In all fairness, it was a Spring look, shown last year on [...]

We’ve spotted Chloë Sevigny modeling variations of Chloé’s long jacket and scalloped shorts suit three times now, at the label’s L.A. opening bash, at Veuve Clicquot’s Governors Island polo match, and again at last week’s Swarovski Crystallized party. If there’s a better proponent for uniform dressing—i.e., finding your look and sticking with it (despite, in [...]

Chanel should’ve put out an announcement on the Upper East Side: “Please steer clear of La Goulue on Tuesday evening.” The Madison Avenue restaurant, which was reportedly going to shutter this week, was taken over by the French fashion house to announce its new beauty ambassador program, and the resulting crush caused some dismay among [...]
