Cool Hunting
A collaboration with Cone Denim (the oldest denim company in the U.S.) artist/designer Susan Cianciolo’s show “Woman of the Crowd” opens tonight, Wednesday, 6 September 2006 at New York's Sears-Peyton Gallery. Past collections have involved Susan's handmade books, music, photography, movies, and clothing. Her unconventional approach to fashion is a mix of delicate detail, hand sewing, embroidery and projects with various photographers, musicians and film makers. For this show Mark Borthwick, writer, FIT research curator Patricia Mears, and art directors Takaya Goto and Lesley Chi of Goto Design are some of the people working with Susan. Additionally, she will be showing a line of clothing made out of denim. The runway show happens tonight and the clothing will be on view for two weeks (until 20 September 2006) before it opens 20 October 2006 at LACE in Los Angeles and runs through 3 November 2006 .

Earlier this week Refinery29 reviewed the new Cloak shop in SoHo, NYC. We checked out the shop yesterday and liked what we saw. Here's the review from our friends at Refinery29 and writer Chad McPhail: One can feel a bit like a man-child in the proverbial candy store upon entering SoHo's newest and, perhaps, most-anticipated menswear boutique, Cloak, a collaboration project with long-time supporter...
A couple weeks after watching him tear up the half pipe at the U.S. Open, I got the chance to meet with Shaun White for the first unveiling of his new line for Target due out this Fall. Shaun and his brother, Jesse, both super nice California natives, collaborate on all design projects including the White Collection for Burton. The same goes for the...
United Nude have done it again with the Cup, a new model from the Spring/Summer '08 collection with interchangeable heel backs. The consistent inventiveness of this brand's footwear design is just a pleasure to behold. Unlike the Mobius and the Eamz styles, the Cup isn't a particularly radical shape but the heel feature is one of the best examples we've seen of convertible fashion....
Leading the way in grown-up street wear, Public School recently released Fall/Winter 2008, their second collection. We've been into their clean cut but somewhat edgy designs since the label launched last year; the quality materials and subtle details set them apart from the rest of the rack at Barneys or Fred Segal. Their new NY Hearts Me t-shirt (not available until next Fall 2008),...
by Jason Wilson Come April, Earnest Sewn, the premium denim purveyor, is devoting its Back Room space to the patriarchal eyewear company Moscot. The new installment will launch the two brands' collaborative collection of co-branded Buffalo Horn Moscot Lemtosh frame specs. These one-of-a-kind styles are designed with real glass and colored lenses just as they were 70 years ago. And for bragging rights, each...
DKNY Active Shoes and Semi Precious Weapons frontman/Fetty of Brooklyn jewelry designer Justin Tranter have joined forces to create a limited-edition sneaker. Evoking garage glam spirit of the band and Fetty, the shoes have an upper made of Ballistic Nylon, originally intended for military use and elastic laces with gold-tone aglets and feature removable Fetty "New York Rock" and heart charm hanging from the...
