Did You Spot Helmut Lang’s Influence On The Fall Runways?
So elusive is the designer-turned-artist Helmut Lang that we recently overheard one party photographer ask him to identify himself for the camera. Paparazzi might have short memories, but fashion creators—especially the young guns on the scene—have the work of the Austrian-born master of minimalism indelibly seared on their brains.

Aurora Watch by ZIIIRO
The Aurora watch from ZIIIRO is unlike any other watch I’ve seen — it displays time through color.

Despite Ashley Tisdale giving us a re-run in this navy strapless Akiko Ogawa Fall 2008 embellished dress – previously worn by Hayden Panettiere – I still think she was the Best Dressed at this event. I love [...]
Rodarte’s Night At The Museum
It’s a Black Swan kind of week in L.A., as Natalie Portman looks likely to clinch the Oscar on Sunday.
