Fashion In 50 Seconds 02/12/09 Halston's Teaser Video & More

coutorture — Thu, 12 Feb 2009 06:12:57 PST

Halston released a teaser clip of their Fall 2009 collection video which, to twenty-somethings, will probably feel like a feature length film, seeing that it's over three minutes long.

Justin Timberlake and the folks at William Rast dish on their comeback, their collection (left), and their first show in the tents.

Publicists, designers, buyers, and models--all of whom you will know by name--weigh in on the methods of surviving Fashion Week.

The only thing more defeating than trying to find a power source at tents--standing in line at the Barneys Warehouse Sale.

Erin Wasson Gets Back to Her Texas Roots with Justin Timberlake

fashionologie — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 13:52:58 PDT

>> Plenty of models put their whole body into their work, but Erin Wasson, she fractured her foot while filming an ad campaign — and kept right on going. All this happened back in May, so she's long since lost the cast, but we're just now getting to see the short films that brought on the injury.

Erin gets to use her Texas roots for this one, adopting a thick drawl as "Birdie," love interest to William Rast, a "mysterious rebel" played by Justin Timberlake. The two run through woods, make out a little, escape some gunshots, make out some more . . . all in the name of a group of mini-documentaries advertising Justin's line, William Rast.

The trailer is below, with the first three short films after the cut.

The Shorts Erin Wasson Broke Her Foot For

fashionologie — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 17:45:08 PDT

>> Back in May, we first heard about Erin Wasson fracturing her foot while shooting a group of short films.

Finally, more details about the bone-crunching project with Justin Timberlake for his line William Rast have emerged. The mini-documentaries are titled "My Name Is William Rast" and feature Justin as a "mysterious rebel" and Erin as Birdie, his love interest.

The two are on the run from what is implied to be the police, stopping intermittently for makeout sessions before running through the woods to escape gunshots (cue Erin's ill-fated running sequence). The videos will debut on williamrastmovie.com later this month, when you can judge whether the project was worth a cast and crutches.

Video Clips: Coco Rocha's E! "Fashion Attack" Special

fashionologie — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 13:44:42 PDT

>> After pulling double-duty last New York Fashion Week as both runway walker and interviewer for E! Canada, her one-hour special, "Coco Rocha Fashion Attack in NYC," premiered in Canada on June 15. Last night, she hosted a screening for friends - including her best friend Behati Prinsloo - who missed out the first time at the Bryant Park Hotel, and finally, some clips have surfaced that can be watched in the US, including interviews with Anna Wintour and Andre Leon Talley talking about a cape he bought at a bullfighters' outfitters in Madrid. At the screening, she said of the experience: “In the end of it all, I was so excited to be done with it. But when everyone went home I was like, more!”

Costume Institute Gala Designers and Their Guests: Who's Coming, Who's Not

fashionologie — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 15:50:28 PDT

>> This year's supermodel-centric Costume Institute Gala is coming up soon - Monday - and it's shaping up to be the toned-down affair that was expected: a number of designers who usually attend are not, tables are not selling as well as in the past, and there are even rumors that Vogue is having model attendees pay an entry fee to the tune of $7,500.

Versace has decided to join Burberry, Roberto Cavalli, Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent, and Alberta Ferretti in the not-buying-a-table camp, and Celine and Fendi are not actively participating in the event at all. Domenico Dolce, Stefano Gabbana, Christopher Bailey, L'Wren Scott, Suphie Buhai and Lisa Mayock of Vena Cava, Erin Fetherston are all said to be forgoing the festivities, and Christy Turlington, despite this year's theme, turned down her invitation as she will be out of the country.

As for those who are attending, sponsor Marc Jacobs has his fiance Lorenzo Martone "semi-hosting" a table of his own, and co-host Kate Moss is supposedly after Stephen Jones for a specially-crafted turban decorated with Shaun Leane brooch for the occasion, and is rumored to have asked Jacobs for a Veronica Lake-inspired gown. Meanwhile, Chanel Iman left Vogue Monday with her gown of choice in hand, hinting "I smell a JLO red carpet moment. Watch out JLO!!" and Lauren Santo Domingo is apparently choosing between blue and green sequins.
