[Elle U.K.]Speaking of capsule collections, men can look forward to a new one, too: Bergdorf Goodman has commissioned Tim Hamilton to [...]

Unis’ Eunice Lee isn’t one to shout. The Parsons-trained menswear designer—one of the few visible women steadfastly working in the men’s game—makes clothes that are understated and unbranded. “Even the fit is really quiet,” she’s said. So despite being carried by stores like Barneys, Bloomingdale’s, and Fred Segal, holding court in her own Elizabeth Street [...]

Tim Hamilton shows his eponymous menswear in Paris these days, but the New York-based designer hasn’t left his hometown fans out in the cold—for the second season in a row, he’s showing his secondary collection, Tim Hamilton Redux, during New York fashion week.

While we aren’t in the business of playing favorites, we would like to call your attention to the portrait Craig McDean [...]

Tim Hamilton is Paris-bound: Not only did the designer debut his womenswear collection in the City of Light last season, but now he’s moving his menswear show there, as well. (When France’s Chambre Syndicale invites you onto its runways, you can’t really decline.) But that doesn’t mean that Hamilton, who keeps his studio on the [...]
