Cara Wants Candy…And Hogan’s Zebra Stripes
Fall 2013 marks Love magazine’s Katie Grand’s second collaborative capsule for Hogan. Titled Gang, the range includes everything from iPhone cases to skate shoes, and features lots and lots of zebra print, simply because, as Grand explains, “It felt right and looked great.” In true Grand style, the collection debuts via a playful film, which stars Love-ettes like Cara Delevingne, Tallulah Harlech, Stephanie Seymour, and Ondria Hardin. Shot by Daniel Jackson, the short shows the ladies bouncing around in Katie Grand x Hogan’s wares to the tune “I Want Candy,” sung by Miss Delevingne herself. “Cara kept saying how she wanted to do something with me that wasn’t modeling, so when I wanted to do something special with the video, I thought it was ideal to get her to sing the soundtrack,” Grand told Style.com. Catch the film’s premiere, as well as Cara’s singing skills, above, exclusively on Style.com.
Katie Grand X Hogan: The Gang’s All Here
Hogan doesn’t slouch when it comes to collaborators: Karl Lagerfeld created four collections for the brand. Their latest partnership is with Love magazine editor in chief and super-stylist Katie Grand, who worked with the Tod’s Group-owned label on a colorful Spring capsule collection called Gang. Grand tweaked three sneakers (based on styles from the Hogan archive), a ballerina flat, leather purses, and oval sunglasses with a heart motif. To show it all off, she assembled one hell of a gang—Alessandra Ambrosio, Saskia de Brauw, Cara Delevingne, Linda Evangelista, and Edie Campbell, and more—for a one-off publication shot by Dan Jackson. Style.com has a first look at the new pieces, as well as a behind-the-scenes video from the set (below).

In London, over 100 fashion houses have been given a warning not to exploit interns. “The letters give fashion houses plenty of warning that they are under scrutiny. If they are not playing by the rules, now is the time to put things right,” says Michelle Wyer of HM Revenue & Customs. [Telegraph]

Hogan’s Hero
Wherever Karl Lagerfeld goes, a crowd is sure to follow. The designer’s magnetic force attracted hundreds of fashion editors and even more hangers-on last night to a converted bank on rue du Quatre-Septembre after a long day of shows to see his new capsule collection for Hogan, watch the short movie he made to promote the collaboration, and, of course, catch a glimpse of the man himself. Asked why he recruited Lagerfeld for the project, Diego Della Valle, chairman and CEO of Tod’s Group, which owns Hogan, said, “The answer is easy: because Karl is a genius. He gave a lot of energy and the result is very good; we’re very happy.” The results in question include sporty nylon jackets in silver or black, sneakers with double ankle straps, a trainer-cowboy boot hybrid, and flat bags with multicolored geometric flaps. All of them had starring roles in the Lagerfeld-directed video alongside Magdalena Frackowiak, Baptiste Giabiconi, and Sebastien Jondeau. They arrive in stores at the end of January.
