do-in it right






last night was the versace for h&m fashion show here in nyc.




versace is not really my thing, so it wasn't a collaboration that i was anticipating with any kind of excitement....




but of course, this morning the blogs are full of it.








one of the most consistant elements of many of the looks in the show were black leather do-rags, worn on the head:













which reminded me, immediately of a similar look that alexander wang showed for spring:

i don't believe the wang pieces will be available for sale, although maybe if the versace ones blow out of h&m, they will consider making them for retail?




my first thought was to wonder what alex might have though.....





but he doesn't look too mad ;)

i read somewhere on twitter that their inclusion in the versace show was a reference to a show of gianni versace's, before his death.





i have no idea about that, since i was not a big follower of fashion in those days....





wang, or versace, these accessories are not for me, but....





maybe you'll be wearing them someday soon?

a little late on the nyfw tip.....







a little while back, i had the tremendous opportunity to do some freelance work for alexander wang.





i wanted to share with you the fruits of some of the work that i did there, in case you didn't happen to obsessively follow all of the press coverage of the runway shoes...








you can see all of the runway styles on style.com here.




but this is not the whole ss12 collection.... you'll have to wait a bit longer for those. and there are some goodies, for sure.





working with the team there, including alex himself was a treat. everyone there is talented and professional, and the design team are sweet and funny individuals.




i'm hoping that i'll have the chance to work with them again in the future!
