Images by Shawn Brackbill Victoria—whom you can see in the film below, our heroine who finds herself with a common plight—looks really quite sad as she wades in the river and, as we’ll soon find, love makes her lip quiver. Her malady (a romance that’s cut short by the seasons) is one we see often, [...]

Backstage at Perry Ellis – Spring 2011
September 17, 2010 – 5:35 am
Images by Brandie Raasch The salmon, mint, and tomato splashes at Perry Ellis conjured images of a fresh Mediterranean dinner, backdrop of swaying palm trees included. And the line would fit right in on the Amalfi Coast. Linen blazers and striped, relaxed shorts read more resort than spring, but after uptight fall the guys will [...]

A Détacher – Spring 2011
September 14, 2010 – 8:30 pm
Before the show even started, the above notes set a light mood. And as the looks began, I began to understand how they related to A Détacher’s Spring 2011 collection.
