INTERVIEW: Creative Director Stefan Campbell Makes Magic at Michael Bastian

Edited by

At 11 A.M. today, Exit Art was bustling with t-shirt-flannel-n-jeans guys with ladders, gold paint, real leaved branches and tree trunks sitting apart, and two Swarovski crystal chandeliers hanging from a rolling rack. This team of set builders were being kindly and meticulously directed by Stefan Campbell, the man responsible for translating Michael Bastian‘s collection into a three dimensional space that garners an emotional reaction from the audience before the clothes hit the runway.  Earlier this week, he removed the front row so Chadwick Bell could have a 14 foot-wide glowing fuchsia runway instead of seven. Today, he’ll be scenting Michael Bastian’s show with Aedes. After speaking with Stefan today, we can confirm that he knows the tricks to making a runway show magical. See Stefan Campbell’s secret tips and advice at the end of the interview. And we’ll go see the show now.

Marc Jacobs Goin’ Down to South Park, Gonna Make Himself a Tee

Edited by

Marc Jacobs returns to South Park, but this time not as “Muscle Man Marc.” The designer has collaborated with Trey Parker and Matt Stone to create three T-shirts featuring Eric Cartman, Butters Stotch and Randy Marsh to benefit The Interdisciplinary Melanoma Cooperative Group at New York University. Stripped to their cartoon bones with only the charity’s slogan – ”Protect Your Largest Organ” — providing any coverage, it’s clear to see why Cartman is always so…tee’d off.

10 Fur-tastic Winter Hats

Edited by

Having already been donning my new faux fur trapper, even on inappropriately warm days, I’m very ready for the winter of the fur hat. It certainly makes sense, what with this being the year of the hat, so you won’t get away with re-wearing your pilling beanie of seasons past (not that I thought you’d try).
