Fall Shopping Event at Giuseppe Zanotti

On Friday I had the pleasure of hosting A Summer Affair With Fall Flair at Giuseppe Zanotti. The shopping event brought out the Las Vegas taste makers as well as the international elite with Hermes Birkin in tow. While the DJ set the mood for shopping guest enjoyed a few too many devilishly good cupcakes from The Cupcakery while washing it down with Champagne. Favorites of the evening were the Suede Boots with Stars (as seen on the invitation) embellished with Swarovski Crystal elements, the cork pump, the satin pumps with crystal broach at the toe (a wedding shoe for a client), and all sorts of other Giuseppe Fall must haves.

New Designer on the Block: Katie Holmes !

I heart Katie Holmes and she’s been on my radar since her days on the creek. I feel like I’ve watched her grow although I am not her father/mother I am proud of her. Katie Holmes or “Kadie” as I call her is an actress, mother, and Tom Cruise’s Cover up/Wife. Katie is currently the face of Miu Miu appearing in all of the house’s Ads. Now she’s not only wearing the clothes but also designing them. Katie and her stylist Jeanne Yang have partnered up to create Holmes & Yang, a premium designer line for women and children. The line will feature a mix of American classics with a Katie Holmes twist and will launch in the Fall at Maxfield in Los Angeles.

Mark Ronson’s Gucci Pop-Up

Sneaker Addict, Music Producer and DJ Mark Ronson has collaborated with Gucci’s Creative Director Frida Giannini on ‘Gucci Icon Temporary’. A pop-up sneaker store that will travel the world. The shop will feature 18 limited edition sneakers, 16 of which are men’s and two pairs are women’s. The bulk of the merchandise was designed by Giannini with the Gucci DNA in mind to feature the logo and green stripe. Ronson designed a pair of unisex kicks for each city. ‘I spent many, many years as an avid sneaker collector, so I wanted to make sure these Gucci shoes were truly special from an aesthetic and collectible point of view’, Ronson told WWD. Gucci Icon Temporary launches in SoHo New York in October. It will continue on to London, Paris, Berlin and Tokyo. The pop-up shop will remain open for two weeks before moving to the next city.

Rodarte for Target’s Go International

Design duo and sisters Kate and Laura Mulleavy of Rodarte will follow Tracy Feith as part of Target’s Go International program. The Go International program provides a platform for emerging designers to showcase their work to a much broader audience enabling them to gain new followers. The Limited Edition collection will be available at Target and Target.com for 45 days Dec. 20th through Feb. 6; the line is inclusive of 55 items. For those not familiar with Rodarte’s work, it can be challenging to reproduce on such a mass scale due to the hand-made-like-construction nature of their garments but Target addressed it with ease. “What you’ll notice is an amazing eye for detail,” said Joshua Thomas, a Target spokesman. “It’s very feminine, yet very modern. The Collection incorporates a rich mix of patterns and fabrications and everything from sequins and bows to faux fur. The key with Rodarte is layering.”
