Aritzia, a new retail boutique for young women, is opening its first Manhattan location in SoHo Summer 2011.
Aritzia has developed a large-scale Collage to mask the construction of the 10,000 square foot Aritzia Flagship location at the corner of Broadway and Spring.

‘Masquerade’ is the theme for Vogue Paris 90th Anniversary celebration and the spread ‘Bal Masqué’ in the October issue is an ideal inspiration for guests who turned up for the magazine’s celebration night in Paris on Thursday.
There’s no doubt Stefano Pilati saw the Saint Laurent moment coming the minute the doors to the retrospective opened in March. No matter the lag time, it couldn’t have been easy working behind the door initialed YSL at the height of a tribute season, and scheduled to show at the tail end of it, no less. Pilati’s spring collection could have withered under the weight of obligation, had he not shrewdly checked his Saint Laurent homages — they were many — against a spare point of view, in accordance with the season’s other major motif. It was a stellar combination.
Dutch duo Viktor And Rolf (Designers Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren) has been producing avant garde and highly conceptual collections (sometimes pushing fashion tolerance) since 1993.

Prada disputed the reports, saying that the family still owns about 95% of the company, while the remaining 5% by italian bank banca intesa San Paolo. Interestingly, prada then announced a day later, that they agreed terms for a new €360m loan from a consortium of banks, in part to service an old loan while also to finance new store openings.
It’s really amazing to see the pure haute couture made by leather and furs. The most people expect silk, lace and crystals when they think about the art of couture,, but the people of “The house of Martin Margiela” can make a different couture.
There’s a sense of nostalgia looking at Prada’s new Fall Winter 2010 Ad Campaign. Set in a club scene, with couples apparently getting pretty intimate with each other.
