Project Runway All Stars recap: Gelato gowns for Miranda Kerr?

Comments

Things took a porcine turn last episode, so I was thrilled to see the Project Runway producers go a little softer (or maybe soft serve?) on the All Stars this week, plying them with stupidly named gelato flavors before slapping them with their dubious challenge.

With all this cold and wet weather, it’s nice to have something to look forward to. Enter resort wear, with its decidedly beachy, nautical feel. This season’s collections were chock full of brights, scuba wear, and ‘50s-inspired pieces. We’ve pulled our favourite cruise-ready pieces to show you the best ways to wear tropical colour for your upcoming getaway.

Project Runway All Stars recap: We chart our feelings throughout the best and worst moments from the premiere

Comments

In the New Testament world of Project Runway All Stars, losers from seasons past are being judged anew. Eleven of the contestants will be deemed unworthy for a second time*, and one will claw his or her way to redemption—and a brand new technology suite from HP! Is it worth it? I can’t tell. Now, into the tense and cosseted world of Project Runway All Stars!

*Technically, Anthony has already lost twice, bless his heart.

Scuba do: Check out FASHION’s photo shoot and go behind the scenes in tropical Hawaii

FASHION SHOOT: Scuba do

Escape the chill and head to heavenly Hawaii in resort brights, surfer prints and dive-inspired details. For our very first resort collections shoot, we couldn’t imagine a more fitting setting than the swaying palms and long stretches of white sandy beach on Oahu—especially since Givenchy, Stella McCartney, Marc by Marc Jacobs and Marni resort were blooming with wild botanical prints and scuba-inspired silhouettes in a tropical paradise palette. Armed with a salt water–filled spray bottle and a boatload of bronzer, our hair and makeup artist Greg Wencel created a sun-kissed, unfussy beach beauty look for model Natalia Bogdanova. A short drive along the coast from Waikiki, we scaled the sloping cliffscape to the crashing waves below to shoot on sparkling black rocks at Lana’i Lookout (or Rifle Range, as the locals call it) and Halona Cove. We spent the day flinging ourselves into the pounding surf to cool off between frames. Our story was completed with a professional surfer as handsome accessory—and on the last day of the trip, we mustered the courage to take a lesson and catch a few waves of our own.

They said/We said: Michael Kors goes public and his business partners are looking to cash in

Comments

Michael Kors

Fur coat not enough? You can now own a piece of Michael Kors in ways other than clothing, (or for that matter, accessories, or fragrances, or jewellery, or shoes…) It was announced Friday that the label is going public, and planning to sell up to 48 million shares on the New York Stock Exchange. Now it’s being reported that the company’s value is around $3.62 billion, giving the designer a cool $111 million as part of an initial public offering.

While Kors will begin a road show, starting at the Pierre Hotel in New York this week to try to win over potential investors, his business partners Silas Chou and Lawrence Stroll are apparently interested in Vera Wang’s bridal empire and plan to wine and dine Wang’s husband Arthur Becker into coming on board. Wang has many successful license partnerships with American retailers including Kohls and David’s Bridal, but her main collection only makes up a small part of her profits and Chou and Stroll are looking to invest in its growth.

If Wang wants to make some serious dough, the designer and her husband should look no further. Chou and Stroll’s part in transforming Kors’ company after it went bankrupt in the nineties is proof these guys are the ones you want on your team if you’re a designer who wants to dominate the fashion world.
