Victoria Beckham's already sold-out line of Spring frocks landed on Net-a-Porter this morning and sold out again before the Americans even got out of bed...
Speaking of Net-a-Porter, Stella McCartney has an exclusive capsule collection in the works with the online retailer.
A lot of people wore hats at the opening of the Stephen Jones exhibit in London last night.
United Bamboo just launched menswear and a look book of the lean separates is out.
As is typical of shows at the Altman Building, and with United Bamboo in particular, things are pretty low-key this morning. Rather than keeping invitees standing in a line that wraps around the corner (like last night at Rag & Bone, Robert Geller, etc...) people are sort of aimlessly wandering in, coffees in hand. A great way to start the day if you ask us. Stay tuned for our runway gallery from the Fall 2009 United Bamboo show which we hear will include Deka Ray jewelry and Falke hosiery--very important details indeed. After that, Karen Walker, Adam Lippes, VPL, and much, much more.
Barneys spelled Christian Louboutin's name wrong in a suspiciously downtrodden looking window display. Granted, window displays are also getting Barneys a lot of good press this morning too.
What's wrong with the menswear runways? In Italy, home of the all-black issue of Vogue, the runways are racially homogenous as usual.
The Spring 09 United Bamboo ad campaign stars artist Terrence Koh. Outlandish and alienating? Or hip?
Pioneer of the premium *boyfriend* jean, Current/Elliot is finally, actually, making menswear. The new range will drop this season.

We're backstage for United Bamboo at our favorite venue for off site shows, the Altman Building. Designer Thuy Pham gave us a quick interview in which he revealed the inspiration for Spring 09 as being bright, bold, easy and yet still align with the trademark geometrics that Unied Bamboo is known for. The models are doing their walk through in their street clothes (which makes you think you're at an Alexander Wang show--but that's later today) and we just bumped into Eugenie Huang from Deka Ray, who will be accessorizing the models in her, also geometric, designs. Stay tuned...it's going to be a busy day.
