Geek Chic featuring La Crasia
Carmen Marc Valvo, a New York-raised designer, dipped his toe into nerd-chic in his Fall 2008 runway show when he sent 'BUtterfield 8' inspired dual-satin gowns down the runway with 'Revenge of the Nerds' glasses. And boy did we notice. The juxtaposition of Buddy Holly specs with his red carpet classic Hollywood design fused fashion classicism with the look of unorthodox intellectualism. more...

Peter Soronen Designer Profile featuring La Crasia
You don't have to be a Fashion Editor to figure out that Peter Soronen's designs have their origin in corsetry. After making made-to-order evening and wedding gowns in Chicago and then New York City, Peter's collection made its runway debut in 2007, the thread through each of his garment evolutions being the aesthetic of Elizabethan Louis XIV, the Victorian era and the '50s (which are all eras when the corset was visible in outerwear.) He made the jump from runway into Barney's fairly quickly with star power like Sarah Jessica Parker behind him.

Sacrifice featuring La Crasia
Today's designers are creating garments that provoke us to compare current fashion with that of WWII. Do our reasons for fighting against the Axis Powers compare to our reasons for engaging in combat in Iraq?

Posh & Gloss featuring La Crasia
The Twenties have often been cited as the era of inception of today's popular culture. Perhaps it is why we stubbornly continue to reference the style of the times. Or perhaps it's our identification with the roaring age that was "...anxious to enjoy itself, anxious to forget the past, anxious to ignore the future."* No matter, the reason, Gilded romanticism never seems to fade, and today's fashion designers continue to modernize its essence with garments that allow us to reflect our own light in big or small ways. more...
