RUNWAY: Frank Tell Fall/Winter 2010
Edited by Marcus Holmlund
Looking to Frank’s pre-fall pieces and his most recent collection revealed on Friday evening, Tell has officially tapped into exactly what his good-looking-bad-girl demographic wants. He knows they desire wearable daily items that can easily be done up to become a showstopping outfit for the evening. As if he had a checklist for each collection, this season’s list included: Croc-stamped lambskins and suedes, funnel necked silhouettes accentuating the skinny, dangling buckles, perfectly placed grommets, and a slew of heftily wrangled knits. The mod-mindset he spoke of in his designer statement appeared in his palette of baby blues, tans and nudes, and an especially ashy slate gray. One of the highlights this season was undoubtedly Tell’s choice of male model Martin Cohn who walked second down the runway. Others included his Star Trek-inspired wedges courtesy of Raphael Young and jewelery picks by Pamela Love. Overall, the tribal-future fest was a perfect concoction of toned-down eccentricities fit for the downtown-via-uptown sets. Find more pics here.
SOPHOMORE GOES TO WILDWOOD
Edited by Marcus Holmlund
Last Wednesday I went to The Box for Sophomore’s lookbook film (by Cass Bird) unveiling. Unexpectedly, the short film ended up being a one-off carbon copy of the funniest, rarest doc around; Wildwood, New Jersey. Big ups to Mel Ottenberg who styled the mini-vid. Take a trip back to the early 90’s and compare the two below…

Remember Clarissa Explains It All? So did Marc Jacobs this season… his latest Louis Vuitton bag boasts Melissa Joan Hart’s 1990′s Nick character and her mix-matched style to a T. How else does one justify such insanity?

MARCUS LOVES: Jordettes
Edited by Marcus Holmlund
Air Jordan heels!?!? The second I saw these babies I couldn’t help but two-step to some old school Montell. They’re not official in any way, but, hell are they fly. Fly in a tacky-campy-Mariah Carey-uglier-than-sin kind of way.
MARCUS LOVES: Fjallraven Survival Gear
Edited by Marcus Holmlund
Marcus here. Come wintertime, I literally wake up in my Fjällräven bubble jacket. It’s global warming survival gear. Double-down, crazy comfy, and the best quality known to man, the coat’s lasted my enitre life.
