Designer Profile: Esteban Cortazar
The title of the film My Brilliant Career applies to “fashion wunderkind” Esteban Cortazar. I have been following and rooting for Esteban since he debuted his first ready-to-wear line in 2002 at the tender age of 18 to great acclaim. … Read More »

The best philosophy to live by is: “Keeping my side of the street clean”. And with that, I take pride in sharing an organization that is similarly committed to that notion, only it goes deeper than that. ACE-New York is the organization committed to helping the homeless and responsible for keeping the streets of SoHo clean. The idea behind ACE works because the individuals in the bright red uniforms who clean your sidewalk want more than charity—they want a better life.… Read More »

Our in-boxes are stuffed with promotional opportunities, must-haves, pictures of C-List celebrities wearing Designer X on a red carpet, and news flashes that feature nothing new.… Read More »
Hiatus and Other Ironies
To some people, hiatus means you have just finished shooting the thirteenth episode of a quirky, new sit-com—that your producer believes will be the break-out, mid-season replacement—and are taking a well-deserved break in Cabo San Lucas. Naturally, you are hoping against hope that the network brass will order an additional thirteen episodes for a second season, but there is no telling what those suits will do once they show a few episodes to some random focus group in the Midwest; to people who have no sense of humor and won’t get the subtle jokes or the double entendres. So you spend your hiatus drinking and praying.… Read More »
Frank Ocean: Comes Out
Newest “celeb” to march out of the closet is Frank Ocean, an R&B singer, part of the hip hop collective Odd Future and who has also written songs for Justin Bieber, John Legend and Beyoncé.
