Prabal Gurung’s been appointed the new designer of International Concept Brand, or, ICB.
The line, which has been designed by Michael Kors and Viktor and Rolf in the past, halted its US distribution in 2002, but will make an anticipated return with its first Gurung designed collection at New York Fashion Week this February.
Gurung told WWD that he’s thrilled to have “the opportunity to experience the outstanding production and technology in Japan as well as the company-owned factories in Italy.” He also pointed out the benefits of working on a collection at a lower price point, “[It] provides a new perspective for me as a designer.”
Katy Perry’s New Short(er) Straight Bob And Versace White Leather Dress
Have you seen Katy Perry’s new hairdo? It’s a short bob, of an uncertain color variety. And I thought Katy’s hair was natural! I can’t seem to adjust to this new extensions fashion! I’d better do it, and quick, huh? You simply can’t know who’s having real hair and who’s on real fake hair!
Aside from Katy Perry’s new multicolored slick bob (you know, the bob again), you have to check out her white leather dress with studs from the Versace Spring Summer 2012 collection (you know there was a similar dress in the H & M Versace collection too)! It’s so… edgy. So unusual for Katy’s normal playful style! I mean.. Versace and playful just don’t go together. Do they? (Katy was all dressed up for the “Change begins within” annual event from Los Angeles, December 3rd)

In the Twilight Hour?
Written by Adele Booth
I thought about maybe using the impending Twilight film conclusion as a theme for seeking out this week’s new fashion arrivals (exploit, exploit), but then I realised how much I hate the franchise, and how little I know aesthetically of the tale itself (vampires and…lace? that’s all I got.) Saying that, Kristen Stewart looked rocking at the premiere of Breaking Dawn in L.A. last night, didn’t she?! And it is Kristen’s general ballsy and sultry look (she’s like Avril Lavigne, if only the latter had gotten to the next level)- as opposed to that boyfriend/vampire spouse of hers Robert Pattinson- which is rather growing on me now, as the entire modern phenomenon finally comes to a close. So let us love us some of them darker cocktail hues too; from navy to very berry, with subtle texture detail, and then throw over a Monsoon crochet cardigan coat to keep us on the right side of twilight. Thanks Kristen, for throwing up a bit more in the way of Autumn inspiration!

Here’s What The Man Repeller’s Leandra Medine Designed for Raise Cache, a Tech/Fashion Benefit Show You Can Attend!
We feel like the fashion industry has seen a lot of change this year and much of that change has taken place online. A plethora of new fashion-y tech start-ups have revolutionized the way we experience fashion, especially in the realms of e-commerce and social networking. While the west coast may get most of the credit for technological advances, the fashion industry lives here in New York, which is where over 75 tech start-ups will converge this Thursday for a fashion show benefit called, cleverly, Raise Cache.
Proceeds from tickets sales will benefit hackNY, which “aims to federate the next generation of hackers for the New York innovation community,” according to a release. Ticket holders even get gift bags with jewelry from chloe + isabel, beauty samples from Birchbox, silk ties from The Life Tie Project and other goodies.
A bevy of influentials (of fashion and tech scenes) will participate, including the founders of Birchbox, Rent the Runway, Of a Kind and more. Birchbox founders Katia Beauchamp and Hayley Barna, Fashism’s Ashley Granata and Brooke Moreland, Next Model’s Summer Rayne Oaks, and First Round Capital’s Phin Barnes (investor in Mod Cloth, Warby Parker, chloe + isabel) will be models for the day and walk the runway in looks provided by Leandra Medine created in collaboration with Linebyme, the proceeds of which will also go to hackNY. It’s pretty cute and something we could actually see her wearing. What do you think of the blogger’s first foray into clothing design?
