In an exclusive interview with WWD, Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci kept things, well… exclusive. Starting next month, Givenchy is dropping the runway in favor of an appointment-only preview for their fall couture collection. The ten elaborate evening wear looks will be shown in an 18th-Century
townhouse on the Place Vendôme (in Paris) to top editors and Givenchy’s (royal) clients… and that’s it.

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

“The ever-sharp Cynthia Rowley acknowledged the relevance of Resort by taking her collection to the streets in a bus that stopped for sidewalk shoots, as pictured above, at the Condé Nast and Hearst
buildings.” Fashion shows on delivery, interesting. Maybe in the future, we’ll order up a pizza, put on our jammies, and wait for the runway bus to come to us.

We’re only a few days into Graduate Fashion Week London 2010, and trends are all over the map. From super girly to super, well, not, graduates are pushing the creative envelope. There’s so much talent on the runway that Alberta Ferretti (this year’s chair of the judging panel) might just have to draw the week’s winning name out of an ultra-fashionable hat. See the trends—terrific and terrible—after the jump.

Christina Aguilera was a paper doll.

I remember when we were younger,that was one of my favorite games.Playing dress up with someone else is even funnier that for oneself. And for an imaginary human being made out of paper,super easy. The last episode of Project Runaway had Mrs Christina Aguilera as the paper doll model for whom everybody was creating the new challenge.This week the designers will be given a chance to shine. But this time they won’t get immunity. Bob Mackie, the sultan of sequins, is there. The challenge is to crea

Live Streaming on the Runway

mcqueen1-200x300.jpgMaria Ogneva, in charge of Client & Community Services for FashionablyMarketing.Me, writes: A few announcements in the past couple of weeks have made me ponder the place that real-time social media plays in fashion events. During Toronto Fashion Week, all social media was forbidden during events and shows; organizers blamed weak ticket sales for this shortsighted decision. The media (traditional and “new”) and readers agreed that wasn’t the way to go and some critics even went as far as to say i

Dressed 2009: Pixyworld on the Runway

DressedAlida.jpgI'm really not an "event" person. So it was out of my comfort zone to organize 12 mini-models, with male relatives as their escorts, for the fashion show in our area last weekend.

But I have to admit it was kind of fun, when it actually happened. The little girls were thrilled have their moment in the limelight, and I guess I was too!

DressedBackstage.jpgIt was even fun for my two boys, who can't model for Pixyworld, but enjoyed attending their first runway show. They got to come backstage, and were proud of their de
