Calvin Klein Embraces Lyndsey Scott, Monika Jagaciak
Calvin Klein Embraces Lyndsey Scott, Monika Jagaciak February 19, 2009 10:31 pm >>  A few seasons ago, Jourdan Dunn made headlines as the first model of color to walk Prada in ten years; Prada is carefully casted and a coup like that can make a model's career.  The same goes for Calvin Klein, except that since CK is so early on in the season, it sets the tone for the rest of the three Fashion Weeks.  This afternoon, Lyndsey Scott became one of the few models of color to land in the Calvin Klein lineup — Jourdan Dunn has done the honors in recent seasons.  Monika "Jac" Jagaciak bounced back from her fall at Herve Leger to both open and close; Addison Gill, Bojana Reljic, and Louis Maselis round out the chosen ones as exclusives — expect to see much more from all.

February 19, 2009 12:50 pm >> THE MODELIZER — Calvin Klein starts shortly, so who are those exclusives?  Not Ymre Stiekema — she didn't even come to New York, prompting questions as to whether she's a Prada exclusive again — but V Magazine/Supreme model search winner Addison Gill is one, and a girl from Click opening — a commenter says it's Lyndsey Scott, left, as the first ever black CK exclusive, but we'll just have to see .

Wasson for RVCA Fall 2009: Leather with a Side of Jello Shots
Wasson for RVCA Fall 2009: Leather with a Side of Jello Shots February 19, 2009 10:21 am >> Erin Wasson debuted round two of her three-year RVCA collaboration last night, and it was like the Alexander Wang after-party that didn't happen, except with a clothing presentation — Wang was even there.  The crowd was bumping, it was hot and sweaty, and jello shots were involved; as for the clothes, pure Erin: lots of black, leather, ripped denim, and sheer with a crochet dress and crushed velvet pants thrown in for good measure.
Fall 2009 Takes Proenza Schouler Back to Its Roots
Fall 2009 Takes Proenza Schouler Back to Its Roots February 18, 2009 8:46 pm >> Designers have been dealing with the possibility of flagging Fall 2009 sales in different ways — some have opted to stay close to their brand identity, and some, like Marc Jacobs, have ignored it all and gone full steam ahead with whatever they were feeling.  Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez look to be in the former category, in that instead of innovating and experimenting with new looks and shapes like they have for the past few seasons, they have gone back to their Fall roots — bustier dresses, tailored pieces, and coats in dark colors and jewel tones.  Not to say that it means the brand has become stagnant — the set of looks with crushed velvet jaggedly intermeshed with sheer panels will definitely sell in the right crowd — the one Proenza is aiming for anyway — and the PS1's next iteration as puffy oversized clutch is sure to create as much fervor as its predecessor.*image: source View Slideshow ›
