Deadly Chic—Now In Theaters And On The Runways
“Revenge is beautiful.” It’s more than the tagline for the new Zoe Saldana film Colombiana. It’s the operating principle behind the female badass movie. Recall Angelina Jolie’s Lara Croft in short shorts and a low-cut tank that revealed décolletage and deltoids in equal measure. As Colombiana’s costume designer Olivier Bériot put it, the wardrobe in [...]
Karl, Kidman, Elbaz, Et Al. Design The Latest Japan Tees, And More…
Uniqlo is the latest company to get the creative juices flowing for Japan. The retailer has tapped friends and collaborators like Karl Lagerfeld, Lady Gaga, Nicola Formichetti, Nicole Kidman, and Alber Elbaz to design a new series of tees to benefit the Japanese Red Cross.

Ohne Titel Skips The Models, Shoots The Insiders
When it comes to advertising campaigns, what you say is (almost) as important as the magazines, billboards, and street corners where you say it.

Paper magazine has announced its annual list of Most Beautiful People, and as you’d expect, the picks are a little more off-kilter than, say, People’s. But we’re glad to say they include plenty of fashion-world favorites, from models Hanne Gaby Odiele and AJ Jacobs to designers Ohne Titel and Prabal Gurung. [Paper]There’s no stopping the [...]
Are You Ready For Web 3.0?
Call it a sign of the times. With the old world order seemingly hanging by a thread, designers kept things together by lacing and tying and weaving outfits all over the Spring runways. At Celine, Etro, and D&G, the approach was fairly straightforward, with looks lashed shut safari-style. Things got more interesting at Gareth Pugh, [...]
Wang’s Win, Daphne’s Shoes, and More…
Alexander Wang can’t stop winning. The 2008 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund winner
scooped up this year’s Swiss Textiles Award, beating out five other
finalists including Thakoon and Ohne Titel. We guess sexy American sportswear translates everywhere.

Daphne Guinness gets the shoes. The pint-size muse showed up in Alexander McQueen’s fang feet at last night’s party for François Nars, [...]
Fashion Fund-ers Connect With The Hollywood Set
The CFDA and Vogue assembled a starry crowd for a Fashion Fund fashion show sponsored by Frédéric Fekkai at the Chateau Marmont on Friday afternoon. Diane Kruger, M.I.A., Jessica Alba, and Camilla Belle all gathered in the hotel’s secluded courtyard to take in looks from contenders for the annual prize like Sophie Theallet, Gary Graham, [...]
The Corpus Crowd
Ecco Domani winners Jerrod Cornish and Keith Richardson brought their L.A.-based Corpus collection to New York for the first time yesterday. Packed with cool kids including fellow designer Catherine Holstein, their presentation at the Bowery Hotel had a partylike vibe. “We met when we did an installation together in Canada a couple of years ago,” [...]
