Seems that there’s some tension between the Balenciaga house and Carine Roitfeld; the Vogue Paris editor-in-chief was not allowed at the label’s show in Paris, with Rotfield telling WWD, “We’re blacklisted…It’s too bad, it’s a beautiful house and it’s French. I hope that it’s not forever.” She offered the bait, saying that the label no longer advertises in the magazine or lends it clothes, but when asked why, all she had to say was “Ask them.” [Racked]
Urban Outfitters Inc. is venturing into new territory and we bet you’d never have seen this one coming: an online bridal store under the Anthropologie label. Yes really. That includes wedding gowns from US$1,000 to $5,000, bridesmaid dresses, jewellery, accessories, shoes, invitations–even a bridal registry. Please let there be a graphic tee. [The Cut]
A homeless man in Ningbo, China is making waves in the fashion world for his style. (Doesn’t he know homeless chic is so 2009?) Fans have dubbed him a fashion icon referring to him as “Brother Sharp,” comparing his ensemble to one from the latest Dolce & Gabbana show and debating whether he looks more like a beggar or a vagabond. A quote from a social worker in Ningbo pretty much sums up our thoughts on the matter: “Homeless people are vulnerable. It is incorrect to use them for entertainment purposes.” Derelicte was a joke, everybody. [Independent UK via The Cut]
Tom Ford confirmed last year that designing a women’s collection was a matter of “when, not if,” and with rumours swirling of the designer rounding up a design team, it sounds like Ford is one baby step closer to his debut women’s line. [Vogue UK]
Aquascutum designers Michael Herz and Graeme Fidler have given their two weeks notice. After being with the label since 2002 and 2000 respectively, the designers are resigning on a high note, as their Fall 2010 collection was well-received by critics. [Fashionologie]
