Rogan Wins/Fashionista.com Has No Life/ On Second Thought Neither Do I

This just in from Fashionista.com. Love that they posted at 12:40AM. Dedicated.

“It’s probably uncool to watch the CFDA / Vogue Fashion Fund as if it were a horse race, but let’s be real - there’s no aloofness woven into our Luella dress, just some earnest “omigosh” at the latest winner:

It’s eco-denim designer Rogan Gregory, who beat the running favorite Phillip Lim to the $200,000 prize.

Gregory has a store in Tribeca and jeans that look like you wore them for five years of your life - straight. He only works with fair trade materials, and uses energy efficient techniques when making his clothes. Rogan claims Heath Ledger and Helena Christensen as major fans, and Bono as a spokesman - his wife, Ali Hewson, has another line with Gregory called Edun, which promotes environmental living and flowy sun dresses.

Phillip Lim won a $50,000 second-place prize from the fund, along with jewelry designer Philip Craingi.”

Many sorry’s to Victoria Bartlett from VPL. She was my favorite to win.
