Journey

Best. One. Yet. They were finally able to get it right. Previous commercials had the same theme but were lacking feelings...They used the perfect frames and the editing was impeccable. This one is LUXURY done right. I couldn't help but be inspired-All I want to do is pack my bags and sail away...or maybe fly away and of course buy myself LV luggage!




They finally paid the big bucks to the right person...I wonder who directed it?

Just discovered these press photos from my show m. RTW FALL 2010.  Enjoy!

Attention all Diesel Boys!

My brother is raving about these new TURBO DENIM by Diesel..From raw to vintage in 30 days. Woohoo or is it just a fad? I cant wait to find out.

The denim is laced with a Japanese enzyme called Turbo-tech hence the denim name.  The enzyme helps to accelerate the aging process and voila just in 30 days you go from raw to vintage. Once washed, the enzymes clear and the look of jeans is permanent. Fabulous and fun eh?  

I have a a lot of respect for denim designers.  Companies invest thousands of dollars each year to come up with new and innovative ways to break denim in.   Although the process is long and tedious it is well worth it.  Every company has their own technique, some use pebbles and debris along with enzymes to break raw denim, while some claim to use sand paper by hand on each pair-WOW, talk about patience.
So I guess that explains why high quality denim can be so costly.  Believe me they are worth every penny.

(All this enzyme talk takes me back to my Chemistry days...sigh...)

I found the costumes in Black Swan really inspirational-I did an avant garde collection at Parson's where I used a black swan as an inspiration. Here are some pieces...

Tutu's and legwarmer = Nostalgia

Darren Aronofsky’s Black Swan is a masterpiece!

In every person there is a dark side and a bright side; the good and the evil.
