Anna Dello Russo Shows her Covetable Closet

Edited by

Anna Dello Russo‘s closet must be a mystical, magical place. Always seen in a different ultra luxe runway look, she simply never repeats an outfit. While the Editor-at-Large of Vogue Japan is a bona fide style icon all day every day, she steps it up for Fashion Week with some personal rules. One being, “Nothing succeeds like excess.” The Coveteur invaded her closet post-Paris Fashion Week to talk tips (it’s well more than being excessive) on being exceptionally chic from a suitcase through four cities in one month. They (and we, in turn) get a little insight into Anna Dello Russo’s life, wardrobe and soul.

The Ultimate Beauty Guide to Fashion Week Fall 2012

Edited by

Nature took its course on the runways from New York to Paris. Bushy brows and bare faces wiped the palette clean. Makeup was used sparingly; a vivd lip here, a midnight eye there. They were brought forth singularly. And the effect breathes refreshingly. Learn how to get the looks, and see which makeup artists put what products on which designers’ runways.

Gareth Pugh Fall 2012 Is For The Birds

Edited by

Not just any bird. Our bird. The Bald Eagle. And how regal they look! Fur and feathered arms for wings, expanding at the hand ready for flight. The skullcap heads with hanging layers of fur seals the bald theory, and the tufty strands build like plumes. Gareth Pugh keeps it in his grayscale threshold for Fall 2012, and soars with a strong, if not endangered theme.

Designer Daily: Daniella Kallmeyer

Edited by

Oil slick and glistening, the prismatic prints and plastic play together to form raving structured prowess. In her fifth season, Daniella Kallmeyer has formed a new lapel that shapes her wool cashmere jackets anew. She’s also formed an alliance with her pattern maker, as she rents workspace in his shop, which ensures her fit is crisp, and her concepts executed with precision.  With her whole collection produced in NYC, she organically became a staunch supporter of Save the Garment Center, and at 25, she’s leading her peers to do the same. Her theme was deeply researched and detailed, harkening to film noir, the 90s raver scene and secret societies, but as a finished product, that’s not what’s important to her. You are.

ThreeASFOUR Fall 2012 Comes Full Circle

Edited by

ThreeASFOUR moves right around in a circular motion, looping from the printed wearability from Spring 2012 to the more experimental outer layers of Fall. The circular thematics broke garments into fragments to assemble spherically. Leather cut laser allowed for a precise interconnectedness, as the pattern looks particularly like a spine spinning in spirals, also partially like wheels turning in a machine. The machine of threeASFOUR – Gabi, Ange, and Adi – work insulated amongst themselves, not adhering to trend cycles, but to their own spherical vision. When Sean Ono Lennon releases the threeASFOUR documentary he is filming, perhaps we will learn more how these circular parts began to turn.

Nanette Lepore Dances in PJs, Reads Tarot with Oscar Wilde & Scolds Naïve Designers in Elevators

Edited by

Nanette Lepore‘s girls came out today gilded in gold, glowing with jewels, burning with orange, and with a sense of English school girl goes to India. This mod Fall 2012 experiment kicked off with a rendition of The Beatles‘ I Saw Her Standing There and continued with a barrage of pretty dresses. There’s something mystical about the collection, and there’s a dandy explanation, straight from Nanette’s lips. And if you’re a young designer, you need a piece of Ms. Lepore’s mind. She gives it here.

Always Wanted a Bottomless Closet? Now You Can Have It!

Edited by

“Real women” at New York Fashion Week are hard to come by. Even harder on the runway. Stone face beauties? Yes. Smooth double zeros? You bet. So the prospect of putting 22 homeless women on the catwalk in custom designer clothing is completely radical! One man and one organization, Derek Warburton and Bottomless Closet  have teamed up with 22 designers, such as Nicole Miller, Betsey Johnson and Lela Rose, to clothe the down-on-their-luck women that reap the benefits of Bottomless Closet. It will be a star studded event, and you can be there too! Find out how to buy your ticket into Fashion Week (and into the open bar that precedes the show)
