>> THE MODELIZER —Back in September, Iekeliene Stange was searching for a location for her first gallery opening, and she finally settled on Berlin. Her solo Polaroid photography exhibit, "I Like Ponies," will debut in January 2009 at projektGALERIE showrooms during Berlin Fashion Week and will focus on her "most personal work." [The Pipeline]

>> THE MODELIZER —Iekeliene Stange may be in Nepal right about now, but as she takes a break from the model scenery and photographs something else for that upcoming gallery opening she's hoping to have, she's shared her favorite shots from the Spring 2009 season — even adding her own commentary. Kamila Filipcikova making a funny face, Kinga Rajzak killing a fly in Rodarte . . . they're all there. [Style.com]

>> THE MODELIZER —Iekeliene Stange is still taking that photography hobby of hers seriously — and having a photographer boyfriend probably doesn't help. Her camera is so attached to her hand backstage at shows, "Somebody would always holler, ‘You’re not going to take that down the runway with you,’” she says. Ike mostly shoots fellow models backstage (left) or a self-portrait before she heads down the runway, but after Paris Fashion Week, she's headed to Nepal to capture some new scenery — with hopes that she'll stage her first gallery opening in London in the Spring.

>> THE MODELIZER —Iekeliene Stange had a stalker at New York Fashion Week: "After the 3.1 Phillip Lim show . . . [Iekeliene] was mobbed by sweaty paparazzi, Japanese tourists, and this older guy who had a Ziploc bag of photos of her with hand-drawn hearts around her. He was hyperventilating and giggling to himself calling her 'my angel.' Yikes!" [Refinery29]

Phillip Lim Sews Up Another Crowd Pleaser for Spring 2009

fashionologie — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 21:34:29 -0700

>> Phillip Lim created the mascot skirt of Fashion Week earlier this year — not kidding, I've seen it on at least one person every day this week — and if the attendance to his newest collection's presentation is any indication, Spring 2009 will be smooth sailing for 3.1 Phillip Lim — the Tent was packed to the gills with fans, including friends Richard Chai and Irina Lazareanu, both sitting front row.

Christian Louboutin designed ruffled heels for the collection, eliciting covetousness in many — in fact, the whole Spring 2009 season is about ruffles for Phillip. The treatment in some of the dresses and skirts reminded me of a tamed version of Marc Jacobs's Spring 2007 ruffles, but among the hazy smoke that hovered on the runway, the real standouts emerged — the stiff, open-edged zipper pieces, and the jewelry Eddie Borgo made for the occasion.

Frida Giannini Taps Into the Rachel Zoe Style Rules for Gucci Resort 2009

fashionologie — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 10:39:31 -0700

>> If Frida Giannini is aiming for her Gucci customer to be one Rachel Zoe, nothing says it stronger than the flowy printed maxi dresses and one-shouldered bohemian blouses that she sent out as Gucci's Resort 2009 collection.

Shown in Rome to celebrate the brand's 70th anniversary and a re-opening flagship, the collection will surely please those who hanker for a Hermes scarf-like minidress or a pair of fringed espadrille wedges. Guests who were left waiting for their rides to the show venue, however, were less impressed, remarking that if Tom Ford were still at Gucci, the cars wouldn't have been late, and the drivers would have been handsome and topless . . .

A video of the show can be seen here.

>> A LITTLE TURN ON THE CATWALK —Don't forget, if you're so inclined, Gucci is streaming their Resort 2009 presentation live from Rome — it should start shortly, but in the meantime, you can catch live video from backstage, the red carpet, and the mingling on the runway . . . I just saw Sasha Pivovarova, Mariacarla Boscono, and Iekeliene Stange getting their hair done. [Gucci.com]

Karl Lagerfeld Goes Organ-ic for Chanel Fall 2008 Couture

fashionologie — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 11:32:22 -0700

>> Seeing a Chanel couture collection is a thrill, but the clothes are always rivaled by what new, huge installation Karl Lagerfeld has plopped in the center of le Grand Palais for the models to stream out of. In recent seasons, there's been a giant tweed jacket and a larger-than-life carousel; This time around, it was a gigantic set of organ pipes.

The show started with a fugue of ominous organ music, and together with the central pipe installation and the tube-like detailing on many of the intricate dresses, reflected the inspiration which had come to Karl during a concert.

Enjoy the big production while it lasts, folks — word is Karl is talking about reducing the Chanel shows to be more intimate experiences in the future.
