I'M IN PARIS



A few months back, I planned to escape to Paris for fashion week. And all of a sudden, the time has arrived and I am here! 10 days without cutting any leather or pulling all nighters. Trying to avoid stress and absorb the changing of seasons. It is still relatively warm here, but you can practically taste the forthcoming fall in the air. While I am here, I will be reporting on the shows for Sang Bleu Magazine's blog, and coincidentally my travel partner & creative collaborator Char Alfonzo will be photo blogging for Bullett Magazine.


Yes, this is actually the front door to the apartment where we are staying. Prada makes quite a nice neighbor...

RAD BY RAD HOURAN SS12



Every season, I have high standards and high hopes for what will come down the runway for the RAD by RAD HOURANI show. And this time, I was thrilled with what was presented! Within the signature geometric rigidity was a great degree of play - architectural folds, mysterious zippers that seemed to anchor structure, shades of muted indigo, square bags & clutches...but really the most beautiful elements of all were the backs of the garments. I had some difficulty capturing these details, as the show was quite intimate and as quickly as the model passed by, they were already around a corner. But the backs!! Deep lines, rectangles, large squares, trapezoids, layers, folds & boxes. All done with a perfectly restrained hand, adhering to and amplifying the strong aesthetic that Rad Hourani is so loved for.












CHRIS HABANA // MY ENEMY



Its always a proud moment to see the visions of talented friends come to fruition in front of you. I've been meaning to post this all week, but as it tends to happen these days, a large project came up completely overwhelming my state of mind! But back to the presentation - my dear friend Chris Habana presented pieces from both his main line CHRISHABANA and diffusion line, "My Enemy" in the way that only Chris would - a combination of techno-raver-punk versus angelic-beachy-urban-grunge, with the jewelry being far from predictable yet entirely wearable.
