"Most stage-to-street trends are regrettable: Hammer pants come to mind. But sometimes a savvy pop start manages to capitalize on his or her look with a legit fashion line. Take Gwen Stefani, whose rock/rasta mash-up, L.A.M.B., grosses close to 100 million annually. Now, Justin Timberlake and Trace Ayala, who were childhood pals in Tennesse, are hoping for similar success with William Rast, a denim collection that's been expanded to include men's and women's ranges designed by Johan and Marcella Lindeberg. Expect Southern staples with a Hollywood edge."
Nicholas Kirkwood is the New Christian Louboutin
"What makes us think Nicholas Kirkwood is ready to step into the maestro's shoes? For one, the Rodarte sisters have chosen the London cobbler to craft their Spring footwear. And for another, he's landed a gig making shoes for Pollini, where the appointment of Jonathan Saunders as ready-to-wear director has made it one of Milan's must-see shows. Then there's all the front-row types- Leigh Lezark, Daisy Lowe, Selma Blair - who've been spotted in his high-and-mighty architectural stilettos and cantilevered platform heels."
Goth is the New Grunge
"Starting on September 5, the Fashion Institute of Technology will present Gothic: Dark Glamour, an exhibit exploring the aesthetic from the perspective of both the catwalk and the streets. This, clearly, is a trend that won't be going away anytime soon."
-Designers such as Ann Demeulemeester, Rick Owens, Alexander Wang, and Rodarte have been a few designers to already reveal somewhat gothic pieces
