Nowness | On This Day In 1930: Steve McQueen Was Born
Ah. A celebration. Today is Steve McQueen’s birthday and in honor of him NOWNESS delivers a photo essay on his romance off screen. “In 1956, Steve McQueen was just another good-looking village beatnik, studying at the Actors Studio and dabbling in theater. Then he crossed paths with Neile Adams on a Manhattan sidewalk. A rising Broadway star, Adams was known around town as beautiful, sharp, independent and driven. Their chemistry was immediate and electrifying, and they connected over their troubled childhoods: Born in Beech Grove, Indiana, Terrence Steven McQueen came of age in a boys’ reform school, while the Manila-born Adams survived a POW camp in the Philippines. McQueen drove her on the back of his Triumph and introduced her to the village scene of the 1950s, the coffee houses, poetry circles and speakeasies.”

Video: Christian Louboutin in Dance Rehearsals for an Internet Video
Christian Louboutin agreed to shoot a video for the website Fashionair in which he dances around wearing his shoes like he’s Bob Fosse or something. The effort is really a fancy ad; if you watch the complete video on the site, you’ll enjoy some ads for his shoes (did you know he makes $830 studded high-top sneakers now?) on the side of the screen. However, what’s more interesting than the video may be the dance rehearsal and behind-the-scenes footage. Louboutin seems so over it, yet so into it at the same time. It’s so French of him! Also marvel at Fashionair’s pricey production values in the behind-the-scenes footage.

The World According to Marc
Marc Jacobs packed the house Monday evening at The French Institute Alliance Francaise’s Fashion Talks Series. The designer, who was introduced by Elle’s editor-in-chief Robbie Myers and interviewed by FIT’s Patricia Mears, talked about his retail beginnings as a stock boy, his new apartment in Paris, and the difference between his design process for Marc Jacobs and Louis Vuitton. We also found out that his first line ever was called Marc & Barbara and it included hand knit sweaters that Bill Cunningham subsequently shot on the streets of New York; plus Gianni and Donatella Versace came to his first “Marc Jacobs” show. Here are some of the fun facts we discovered: ~Nola Weinstein
- Marc got his first fashion job as a stock boy at Charivari.
- Tracy Reese was Marc’s best friend at Parsons.
- Marc Jacobs hired Tom Ford to do Perry Ellis America when he was at the creative helm.
- Marc’s first studio was located at 113 Spring Street.
- His first fashion show was featured on 48 hours; production, building the set and finalizing the details was shown as the amateur contrast to Bill Blass, who was the greatest in American fashion at the time.
- Marc took French lessons at FIAF years ago.
- He prefers briefs to boxers.
- Marc bought his new apartment in Paris from designer Jean-Charles de Castelbajac.
- His old dog Tiger died and he got a new bull terrier named Alfred.
- Marc started wearing kilts when he was in a bad mood and his assistant Casey went to Barneys and bought him one from Comme des Garcons. “I love wearing skirts,” he said.
On designing sexy clothing:
“I just don’t find inanimate objects sexy; I don’t find clothes sexy at all…a non-sexy girl in a low cut dress is still a non-sexy girl.”
Bottega Veneta’s Tribute to Japanese Design
We have no doubt that Tomas Maier is the ultimate curator. To cooincide with this year’s Salone del Mobile in Milan, Bottega Veneta will be featuring a pop-up store full of unique, pleasing and travel-ready items from leading Japanese designers. Maier selected every item in the store with Seiichi Kamei, who is editor-in-chief of Japanese design and architecture magazine Casa Brutus. Objects include hand-cut Edo Kriko glasses, Akita cedar wood pitchers by artisan Yasutaka Shimizu, and a wine opener by Mitsunobu Ogin. Additionally the creative director has created a collection of Bottega products designed exclusively for the occassion. The pop-up store will be located on the fourth floor of the luxury brand’s new Via Privata Ercole Marelli headquarters in Milan. Our apartment can certainly benefit from the Maier touch.
