>> After a trip to Joshua Tree in California planted the idea of erosion and decay in his head, Jeremy Laing sought out mud-dyed silk and fabrics given the appearance of being aged by the sun for Spring 2012. Earth tones pervaded throughout, as did slouchy overalls and apron dresses.

>> Jason Wu, Daisy Lowe Collaborate on Jewelry with Swarovski -Every season, Swarovski sponsors a handful of shows, and they're currently exhibiting some of the crystal-encrusted designs by Rodarte, Jason Wu, Julian Louie, threeASFOUR, Jeremy Laing, and Costello Tagliapietra at the New York store on 499 Broadway. This season, Wu is unveiling his jewelry for Atelier Swarovski (peek at left), based on the "concept of sculpting with everyday objects, so I'm using fabric and crystals and making sculptures in that spirit." And Daisy Lowe is also working on a 4-piece line (a necklace, bracelet, ring, and a set of earrings), which comes out in January: "They're kind of magical in a dark romantic way. I've incorporated black and white, star and moon crystals and multiple strands of chains." [Style.com, W Editor's Blog]

Jeremy Laing Fall 2009: Stilled with Steel

fashionologie — Mon, 16 Feb 2009 10:22:08 PST

>> Jeremy Laing continues to be a well-kept secret, but every season he makes a pilgrimage from his base in Toronto, the cult following increases, judging by all the people packed into the small, naturally-lit space - all the body heat made for quite the warm experience. But maybe warm was appropriate, since his Fall 2009 collection, in addition to his usual thick wool geometric pieces, featured fiery prints inspired by a trip to a welding shop - dresses came with names like "anvil," prints "pyro," and gray colors dubbed "steel." Fascinated by the welding uniforms and safety apparel, Laing siphoned the utilitarian appeal into exposed zips and bulging leather gloves, and tempered the edge with feminine pieces like seamed bunchy two-tone tights, flowy silk hems, and laser-cut net tunics.

W Magazine Gets Into Bed with Daria, Kate, and Lara This July

fashionologie — Tue, 17 Jun 2008 10:08:54 PDT

>> It's out: This is the secret project Alexander Wang hinted at - but it's something much bigger than just a collaboration between Wang and Kate Moss. W magazine's July 2008 issue is devoted to fashion, and I mean that in the best possible way.

A Bruce Weber-lensed photo places Daria Werbowy, Kate Moss, and Lara Stone on the cover, and that mean troika is joined by Sasha Pivovarova and a whole cabal of up-and-coming designers - think Alexander Wang, Rodarte, Gareth Pugh, Danielle Scutt, Christophe Decarnin of Balmain, plus more - to cavort around for 36-page editorial shot in Miami.

Bruce Weber was the perfect choice to capture the high summer heat in action - favorite images include a portrait of Kate Moss with her father and sister (below), glasses-wearing Jeremy Laing being playfully bullied by a bevy of much tanner, much beefier male models, and Laura and Kate Mulleavy trying on vintage couture hats.

According to Danielle Scutt, she, Louise Goldin, Gareth Pugh, and Georgina Chapman got together during the shoot for a performance of George Michael’s “Freedom! ’90”:

Gareth was playing the washboard, Georgina had maracas, and me and Louise had tambourines. Some of us then went back to the hotel and jumped in the pool. When I woke up the next morning, I couldn’t find my trainers or jeans.

Another fun fact: Jason Wu, besides designing his eponymous line, is the creative director and partner of a $5 million company, Integrity Toys Inc., for whom he develops dolls.

Anyway, back to the good stuff - full editorial here (NSFW).

Christina Perez — Mon, 12 Sep 2011 13:02:09 PDT

>> New York Fashion Week is in full swing, and if one thing is certain, it's this: there will be no shortage of wild new beauty looks to try come next Spring. Already, designers have trotted out more Kool-aid colors than we care to count - in hair (Peter Som), on lips (Richard Chai Love), and on eyelids (Jeremy Laing). But what if creamsicle-hues are not your thing? No worries. We've spotted a treasure trove of other styles, including smokey eyebrows (Derek Lam), candy-apple lips (Patrick Ervell), and cat-eye liner (L.A.M.B.). Also on offer - for those more classically-inclined - are pretty peach cheeks (Boy And Girl By Band Of Outsiders) and surfer-swept tresses (Jill Stuart). Here, we've rounded up all these, plus more - after all, nothing says Spring like a fresh new look.
