If tonight’s event promises to be at all as obnoxious as the set up happening on the sidewalk of 14th street yesterday, it will be all the rage. All the PA’s and set designers took over the entire sidewalk of 14th street just past the Apple store (heading west) to the extent that I actually had to go out of my way and step over planks of wood just to get by. Ridiculous, but naturally it was all necessary to ensure a proper press entrance, right? Right. The store has an amazing interior and tonight brought guests Brooke Shields, Maggie Gyllenhaal and many others, but stealing the show once again was Mena Suvari.
Launching today exclusively on Net-A-Porter is Preen’s first resort collection. Featured are The Power Bandage Dress (love), The Club Dress, The Love Dress and The Drape Dress -pictured in that order below. You can click HERE to shop but in these times a dress lingering around $1,000 is just socially irresponsible -we just think it’s fun to look!

The past two NY fashion weeks have brought our desks several interesting oragami, cloth, meticulously embossed, unique invites -but for whatever reason, my love for the simple graphics of the Rad Hourani graphics on the e-mailed invites made the biggest impression. A very minimalist concept of white print on black background with information mirrored on opposite sides of the invite. Adequately clear with just a hint of confusion for those stupid enough to not take a moment to pay attention. It seems I am not the only one with this opinion as Hint Mag has commissioned the androgonyst designer to work this concept onto a T-shirt/dress. In this case, the print consists of the dates and times of a calendar -pick yours up HERE.
