Burkman Bros FW2010 Video: "Himalayan High"

Trends for Fall 2010: Deep Green


Deep green was a predominant color at the Fall 2010 runway shows. There were looks with hints of the rich color (at Roberto Cavalli) as there were full, head-to-toe looks (at Ermenegildo Zegna). Wear this color with navy blue or brown pants (as seen at Etro and Lanvin), or add a contrasting color like red (as seen at Agnés B and Lacoste).

Ryan Kwanten Gives Us Geek-Chic


How stylish does True Blood's Ryan Kwanten look in the picture above? His suit has a nice fit, not too tight. The guy literally radiates coolness. The glasses give him a geek-chic vibe. Nice job!

I am a fan of his show and watched the first season religiously. His on-screen persona seems totally the opposite of him. On the show, his character does not go very far sartorially, given that most of the times he is shirtless. He has got a really buff body that makes me want to hit the gym. There's also a Ryan Kwanten Workout, who knew?

YSL for Atelier NY

The much anticipated collaboration between YSL's Stefano Pilati and Atelier NY has arrived. The exclusive collection is full of draped tops, asymmetric jackets made of Japanese wool, and oversized pants. I especially like the cashmere, belted jacket.

Buy The Way: Phillip Lim's Guru Shorts

I am loving these Spring 2010 Phillip Lim shorts. Don't they look so effortless and comfortable? But what makes me happiest about these is that they prove how bad cargo shorts suck HA HA!

Available at Aloha Rag, $250.

Halston to Relaunch Menswear

Images (via Style) from Marios Schwab's Fall 2010 Halston Collection.

Things have really shaken up at the house of Halston lately. First Marios Schwab was appointed creative director, then Sarah Jessica Parker was appointed as Creative Advisor for Halston's Heritage line. Now there are plans of relaunching the menswear line. The line will debut for Fall 2010, an exact date is not clear yet. Studio Mauro Ravizza Kreiger, an Italy-based design shop, will outsource the line. Prices for the line are set to be high, ranging from $2,000 for a suit and $400 for a shirt. But the plans don't stop there. The house is also planning on releasing a Heritage menswear line. For Heritage, suit prices would curb on $1,100. There is no information of where the lines will be sold at yet.

ANDY WARHOL + EDIE SEDGWICK

“One person in the ‘60s fascinated me more than anybody I had ever known. The fascination I experienced was probably close to a certain kind of love.”
