— Emaciated high fashion models are nothing new in the industry. Recently the folks in charge of Brazil’s fashion week have publicly voiced their concerns and intent to increase their already structured health requirements for models. Interesting, they blamed the US and Europe for hindering their attempts by encouraging the gaunt aesthetic and embracing models that are refused by Brazil.
— Temperley’s famous winter sale is going on now. Don’t miss a chance to snag some seriously discounted (75% off) designer dresses and separates. At 453 Broome Street by Mercer until 1/31 this is one sale not to miss!
— Thinking about buying a knock-off designer bag down on Canal street? Not only does that hurt the sales of the legit and struggling apparel industry but it supports sweatshop laborers who make these cheapo bags. Well apparently, the city has decided to crack down on the crowded Canal street vendors and raided the street shutting down 16 illegal shops in the process last week.
— What is a nice Jewish boy doing designing swastika handbags? That’s the questions we’d like to ask Marc Jacobs. So who would pay $1495 for some designer Nazi swag?
— Zac Posen is the next big designer doing a diffusion line for Target. While the goods won’t be available until April, the Look Book is out now. So take a peak, here.
