The Pyer Moss Fall 2021 couture collection ruffled feathers as it closed out Haute Couture Week a few days ago, and no, it wasn’t because it was delayed 24 hours due to monsoon-like conditions. Ready to see what has people clutching their pearls? First of all, the show wasn’t presented in Paris per couture norm […]
Some shows remind us that couture has a higher purpose than winding up in the back of a socialite’s closet after the Met Gala. It can be deeply introspective, informative even, asking us to consider the world through a new lens or to re-examine our assumptions about ourselves. Maria Grazia Chiuri’s Dior Spring 2021 Couture […]
2020 was the year that fashion folks declared to be the death of the medium. Coming out of 2019, there were already cries that the runway show was dying and that fashion week was defunct – both claims I felt, and continue to feel, are exaggerated. But then there was COVID and you can imagine […]
I know what I’m doing Thanksgiving week – watching GucciFest. Unlike Pradapalooza, Versacecon, or Coachella, GucciFest is not made up.

No, friends: GucciFest is a short film series released last week by creative director Alessandro […]
Y’all, I’m writing this on Saturday night after just watching the Maison Margiela Spring/Summer 2021 film – and whoa.

It’s a film as much about product as it is […]

I am positive that Olivier Rousteing will go down as one of the greatest creative directors of all time, and how he’s commanded his house throughout the pandemic only strengthens this feeling. His Balmain Spring/Summer 2020/21 presentation built upon Rousteing’s previous foundations of revolutionizing the runway – creating shows that can be enjoyed just as […]

Y’all, the Prada Spring/Summer 2021 show has the fashion world tittering away, and with good reason. This was the first collection co-designed by Miuccia Prada with Raf Simons, of Dior, Calvin Klein, and Jil Sander fame: two titans of the industry making art together. A BFD indeed! Of course, the peanut gallery wondered what the […]
