Dispatches from Milan: Butterscotch leather at Ferré, chatting with Rachel Zoe, and a bowl of spaghetti rosa

GIANFRANCO FERRÉ Fall 2010. Photography by Peter Stigter

Packed about 3 days worth of shows and re-sees into today so forgive me if I’m a bit loopy! One thing’s for sure– jet lag is a luxury I can’t afford to indulge in, but my bed is calling me so here are just  a few morsels before I call it a day:

Cranky buyers and editors are  complaining bitterly  about the (even) shorter Milan schedule–its actually nuts, even for a fashion crazed high-energy type-A like me!

From early-morning dominatrixes at Dsquared, all the way through to futuristic tartans at  Jil Sander tonight,  it was run run run. I think next season I’ll need a chopper. Read the rest of this entry »

Marni softens up for spring


Marni, the line women love to love, is a little less instantly, obviously covetable for spring, if only for the striped leggings, which, when combined with the headscarves on the models, had the look of pirate gear. Otherwise, the collection was made up of pretty layers that were less structured and cut closer to the body than in previous seasons, though still roomy enough to cinch in for the line’s signature silhouette. Muted pinks, beiges, browns and greys dominated the palette, but there were a few bright florals for Marni girls who can’t imagine spring without them.

After a summer of ripped-to-shreds denim (we’re not complaining), this much luxe polish is refreshing. From the perfect velvet blazer to the shimmering hard shell clutch, this outfit reminds us that dressing up has returned.

Milan street style: Where the wild things are

We love model Skye Stracke’s snake print mini and caramel lace-ups, but what does she have slung over her arm? A vest? A purse? A furry snood?
