Answer: If you want to be in the front row of fashion you’ll run, not walk, to this column
Question: What is On The Runway (answered correctly by one of the male contestants)
The Army of M.E. has a lot of love and respect for Cathy Horyn and we consider her On The Runway blog imperative reading for all who are stylish. We learned a lot from her comments during the Blog:Mode panel discussion at the Met a few months back -especially when she mentioned the importance of the regulars who comment on her blog and how she’s built relationships with some of them. Aww. She’s got all the smart style sense sans the pretension -as we declared month’s ago Wintour is over!
We never ran the story that broke last week about Peter Som leaving Bill Blass. It was mostly because it was everywhere and we hate running a story that has thoroughly infiltrated the web. The story being spread was that Blass execs decided to skip NY Fashion Week and Som resigned. However, in breaking news the Army of M.E. just learned he will not be leaving (at least not right now). Som and the shareholders have come to a resolution which keeps Som on board to present the Spring 2009 collection to retailers only for Fashion Week.
The Marc rumor about him planning to get married to his 3-month-long beau, Lorenzo Martone, that began circulating last week is also not true. Fashion Week Daily did some super sleuthing and got the following statements: “They’re just rumors” - a rep at the press office at Louis Vuitton in Paris. “There’s no truth to it at all.” -Kate Waters of MJ PR office in NY. She also continued to say, “Marc did not get married -nor does he have any plans to.”
Riotous laughter rings throughout the bunkers of the Army of M.E. Oliver Stone ponders what drove George W. Bush from nearly getting his ass kicked by his dad in Texas to sitting in the oval office of the White House? I can say with confidence it was Dick Cheney in the driver’s seat, Donald Rumsfeld in shotgun and Karl Rove was in the back seat screaming at Dick and reaching forward, grabbing at the wheel. GW Bush was either tied up like a hog in the trunk or not invited on the joyride at all…that’s the nicest thing I’ve ever said about George Bush ever. Enjoy…
This is supposed to be somewhat on the downlow but…
today and tomorrow you can get your hands on some PS.
It’s at 120 Walker St.
Betw. Centre & Baxter on the 6th Floor.
The hours are 9a-6p
on both days (July 30 & 31).
The price range is $50-$1,125 on items that usually sell for $325-$4,500 -not exactly a steal but it’s Proenza.
Most importantly NO CREDIT CARDS!
Bring a huge wad of cash or a blank check.
I know, that’s tragic.
Quite the “WTF” story just landed via one of our London bunkers: It seems Krispy Kreme doughnuts surveyed 1000 Londoners to find out what the cause of their stress was and half of the people aligned with it being due to a lack of contact with nature. In an absurd publicity stunt the saturated fat-pushers have created the world’s first grass flip-flops. They take 3 weeks to grow and with proper maintenance (watering your feet/wearing them on sunny days?!) they can remain grassy for four months. Katie McDermott, a rep from Krispy Karotid Artery stated, “There’s currently a lot of uncertainty in the city (of London) so what better way to escape the concrete jungle than by slipping on a pair of grass flip-flops and walking around in your own mobile meadow.” That’s just about the most small-minded, out of touch statement I’ve ever heard. I say this after nearly 8 years of wincing at my TV like I’m watching a 4-year-old stumble through a ballet recital throughout W’s speeches. Don’t get too excited NYers (you know you were) they are only being handed out to London commuters.
What in the name of Anna Wintour’s fur collection is going on over at the homepage of MarcJacobs.com?! I’m just going to continue my day pretending that shit was hijacked by some amazing drag queen by night/hacker by day -but truth is, I know better. And while we’re on the subject of WTF? Can anyone explain to me the artistic or political value of the video installment that launched today in the series ‘Political Fashion’ on SHOWstudio? I’ve been such a fan of Jefferson Hack for so long but seriously…what is good about this? (Don’t bother, it’s someone in a burka jacking off a paint brush -it’s just SOO bad). The only thing that pisses me off more than bad art is someone with leverage given an opportunity to make a political statement, especially in these current times, and just wasting it on absolute crap. Nothing in art offends me but do you really think that jerking off is what the subdued voices behind burka veils long for? This is nothing more than the perfect exemplification of why Western ideals are condemned by some from this region. I can continue but I would rather end on a positive note: Nick Knight’s ‘Untitled’ is absolutely wonderful -admitting fashion being seen as ‘frivolous’ (I wish he went all the way to admit that it is) and the industry’s bigotry and racism against black models…watch that one. He even admits his own personal adherence to these industry standards and how they made him feel -very personal and worthwhile.
