An Exclusive Look at Lagerfeld’s Hogan Collection
Karl Lagerfeld works on so many one off collaborations that it’s hard to keep track of his consistent projects. Aside from the recent re-launch of his eponymous masstige project, there’s Chanel, Fendi and, for the past four years, Hogan. The Italian brand, which is owned by Tod’s, celebrated its fall collection with a cocktail party on the left bank yesterday afternoon, followed by a dinner—the latter of which was attended by a blue haired Katy Perry. The collection, mostly black and white with lots of sparkle and a few studs, is supposed to strike a balance between “the haute couture sketches and balanced proportions of Karl Lagerfeld [and] the urban-chic lifestyle and contemporary luxury of Hogan.”

Rochas’ Funky Red Carpet Dresses
PARIS—It’s not that everyone didn’t look lovely at the Academy Awards this weekend (and yes, red carpet season’s pretty much over), it’s just that we find ourselves wishing year after year that someone would take a risk. Like Simon Doonan said a few months ago, we’re still talking about Bjork’s swan dress because it was the last time anyone wore anything interesting. While swans might be too far a stretch after a year of ladylike Vuitton gowns and vintage Dior, what about throwing some prints into the mix?
In Paris this afternoon, Marco Zanini showed a handful of surprisingly loud gowns, all of which were fancy enough for a red carpet, yet playful enough for a young starlet. Sandwiched in between his ultra seventies brocade bell-bottom suits, granny chic cardigans and tweed tights were bell skirted gowns printed with over-sized checks or tile-like squares. Sure, they’re not for everyone, but they’re a beautiful alternative for someone tired of the sparkle-meets-fishtail look.
