With Isabel Marant x H&M launching today (and we all know how I feel about designer collaborations) I thought we should look at the real reason why everyone loves the French designer. Because after all, Isabel Marant was happening way before the Dicker boot and sneaker wedges. For reals.
File this under “fashion is fun” because you’re in for a real treat. What do superheroes and The Wizard of Oz have in common? Let’s find out.
One fashion program I hope never goes away is the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund. Every year since 2004, they give a grant and mentorship to one promising designer after an extensive round of interviews, presentations, etc. (fun fact: Proenza Schouler’s Lazaro Hernandez and and Jack McCollough were the first ever winners). Last night was the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund dinner where this year’s winner was announced…
Juan Carlos Obando, Dao-Yi Chow, Julianne Moore, Tom Ford, Maxwell Osborne, and Marc Alary
My interest in fashion people doing non fashion things started with this Proenza Schouler surfboard pictured here. Made in the print seen in [what I believe is] one of the greatest collections of all time (Proenza Spring 2010), this made me think…if Jack and Lazaro can make a surfboard, what can other designers make other than clothing and accessories? You may be surprised…
We’ve all heard that social media is ruining our generation, no one “really” communicates anymore and our vocabulary is now made up of hashtags and emojis…but what about the good stuff? Like starting your own business because everyone wants to buy what you’re posting on Instagram for example. Have you heard of Dylanlex? Well now you have.
