Cutout Sweaters. Make a Statement?

Also on FASHION UNCENSORED

Yesterday, I made the trip to Toronto to attend my SECOND (woo) fashion class of this Fall Term.

As you may have noticed, we believe that the best way to start in this little industry of ours is interning for a great company. Hell, we post every good internship we find as soon as we can. But it’s not all wine and roses. Interns often endure long hours, grueling pressure, and mundane tasks—and all of this without pay. The life as an intern, especially in the fashion industry, is far from the glamorous world
of the glossy magazines and runways. Yet, many young hopefuls would do anything to ge

Sixty-four percent of American women are over a healthy BMI range, more than one-third are categorized as obese…you’ve heard it all before, and thanks to The New York Times, you’re hearing it again. Sure, Saks Fifth Avenue is saving spots for sizes 14 and up come fall, but is the high-end fashion world really ready to accommodate plus-sized beauties? Considering that plus-sized clothes only account for 18% of total revenue, and more than half of women in the St

If you’re anything like us, you associate the early part of September with the madness of New York Fashion Week. Oh, but September is so much much than that fast-paced, magazine editor and celeb filled event that takes up just over one week out of the month. But just over the pond, there’s another– and some would argue better– runway explosion: London Fashion Week. And, wouldn’t you know it, LFW’s schedule just debuted.

With a recent ash burial for the late Alexander McQueen, the fashion world is obviously still in the grips of a great loss since the designer’s suicide last February. But, McQueen’s fashion legacy carried on this past weekend in a simple men’s collection at Milan Fashion Week under the direction of longtime McQueen assistant and now brand Creative Director, Sarah Burton. Yes—the late designer was known for his wacky and fantastical men’s collections, but somehow Burton’s u
