Models Galore Hit Vienna for 2009 Life Ball Extravaganza
Models Galore Hit Vienna for 2009 Life Ball Extravaganza May 18, 2009 3:39 pm >> Before heading back to the States from Venice, a number of Chanel Cruise attendees — and show strutters like Toni Garrn and Siri Tollerod — made a stop over in Vienna for the annual Life Ball AIDS charity spectacular Saturday evening.  The town hall was surrounded by 2.5 million liters of water trucked in for this year's marine theme, and the guest list topped 40,000.
Roland Mouret, Still Sticking To What He Knows
Roland Mouret, Still Sticking To What He Knows July 3, 2008 2:04 pm >> Amongst significantly less hubbub — no Net-a-Porter selling his clothes right off the runway this time — Roland Mouret debuted his second collection yesterday under his new RM by Roland Mouret moniker.  The new set of dresses are definitely cut from the Mouret cloth — sheaths tailored with precision, oragami shapes — but for a man who's been using the same silhouettes since 2005, it's time to grow the aesthetic, not stand still in time.
Narciso Rodriguez Brings Fall 2009's Neon Back to the '00s
Narciso Rodriguez Brings Fall 2009's Neon Back to the '00s February 17, 2009 11:21 pm >> This evening, Narciso Rodriguez took the neon nuances of Marc Jacobs's Fall 2009 collection — which Cathy Horyn called "hard to like" — and did with them something Marc did not: made them modern.  In fact, Narciso's best pieces were the neon ones: the highlighter yellow body-conscious dress worn by Natasha Poly will be fought over; the loose citrine dress with snap sleeves donned by Stephanie Carta and Ali Stephens's lace-overlayed pink highlighter minidress are also strong contenders.  The camouflage pieces could be done without — except for Sessilee Lopez's pants; but more standouts — Liu Wen's polished silk top and wool pant, Diana Farkhullina's rich blue-purple dress, and Raquel Zimmerman's chic white frock more than make up for them.  Perhaps even more amazing these days — Narciso's show was fully self-funded, and yet, it still felt like a true show — the bass was so loud, it reverberated in our seats, causing the Financial Times's Vanessa Friedman to bob her head along in approval.*image: source View Slideshow ›
