As relaxes in the Hamptons (like Helmut Lang did when he left his name-sake label), or tends to his garden (a la Jil Sander), there must be interviews galore at the Maison MM. After all when Renzo Russo, creator of Diesel and majority shareholder of Margiela, announced after Paris Fashion Week earlier this month that Martin was no longer at the design helm of the brand (although...

The accessories in Paris were in a realm of their own. From McQueen's towering, curved platforms to John Galliano's erotically-inspired heels, there was definitely a foot fetish this season. The bondage theme we saw happening in New York continued at Givenchy and Marant, with straps and buckles galore. Lanvin opted for a safari moment while Louis Vuitton took on the clog. See all these and more in...

As always, the best Fashion Week is last! The shows in Paris gave spring 2010 its defining trends. From harder couturelike construction at Balenciaga and McQueen to the feminine froth of Chanel and Nina Ricci, it was a season of choice. From the tattered tees and frayed jackets at Balmain to the exquisite draping at Lanvin, this city proves that it's in a class of its own. Narrowing down to the top...

Sadly Fashion Month is over. During the dizzying show marathon, I’ve been at home, glued to my computer watching all the stylish mayhem unfold, and what mayhem it is. While it will take a while to digest the actual fashions, the statement items, mainly the lust-inducing shoes, have been leaving an indelible mark on my [...] Related posts: Sole Search: Walkable Wedges Do It Your Damn Self: Paris...

Confirming rumors that emerged last month, Mario Grauso will step down as president of Carolina Herrera and Puig Fashion Group. Herrera's show is this morning, so this is fairly dramatic timing to lose a big executive. Puig CEO Mark Puig said that Grauso, Herrera, and he all decided together, amicably, that Grauso's contract wouldn't be renewed. It's unclear why Grauso left, but some speculate he...

Alisa Matviychuk (Marilyn Agency). With her wispy dirty-blonde hair and wide-set eyes, newcomer Alisa Matviychuk represented Ukraine in the Elite Model Look contest last year. The 16-year-old didn't win, but she did get scooped up by Marilyn Agency. When the fall 2009 collections hit just months later, Alisa made her runway debut at Nina Ricci . Casting directors must have noticed her doll-like beauty...

WWD reports one source postulates he's unhappy with Olivier Theyskens's departure from Nina Ricci , a situation most certainly deserving of regret. Indeed, Grauso sang Theyskens praises in January, quite a few weeks before the designer's stunning fall 2009...

Forget the shoes at Nina Ricci, or the shoulders at Balmain, the most talked about and controversial subject at Paris Fashion Week were the regular front row appearances of Beth Ditto. As she secured her place as a modern-day fashion icon, the debates raged about whether her body image was as negative as that of skin and bone models. So far she has kept quiet on the subject, but what...
