    "Posen also confirmed that he is working on a scripted television series, but that the project is in its early stages. And he said his Spring line will be partly inspired by Facebook."


    If it gets me poked, I'm on board.

    I have a big blue bag like that and I don't know how to accessorize it properly
    Obviously she doesn't either.

    This comes up every time Shane Watson is quoted (which is fairly often)...she is a female journalist, not a guy.

    J. Jill has always been endlessly frustrating. The catalogs look great. The clothes in them look great. The discounts are great. Then they arrive, and the fabrics suck and the designs crush in shipping. I send almost everything back.

    @brendastarlet is on it: I got a couple of great knit summer tops from them on clearance lately but there are certain things I stay away from. Their shirts run big and the sweaters small. I never buy dresses, skirts or pants from them and I HATE their jeans. When I chose carefully I'm not disappointed often and generally I find a few nice pieces, which is hard for a woman who is a couple years shy of 50 and not nearly ready to begin dressing like an old lady.

    So Emma Watson appearing in a "risque" fashion shoot is not appropriate for Hermione's image, but Daniel Radcliffe going full-frontal and fucking a fake horse on Broadway is a-ok for Harry? I smell a double-standard here.

    i love how every five years they say the preppy style is "back" while those of us in ballet flats, cardigans and shift dresses have been wearing the same thing this whole time.

    @awinoforever: exactly. I was in a J. Crew outlet store yesterday, and it could have been my college days: cardigans, madras purses, belts with whales on them, headbands.


    Come to think of it, my mother's and grandmother's collge days, too.

    Geez, do the Harry Potter producers own Emma Watson? That whole thing sounds wayyyy too 50s studio bosses controlling starlets to me...but then again, I suppose some things still work like that. Kinda sucks though.

    @SisterRay73: I think that the movie industry still works like that a lot, but mostly with stars who have youth appeal. Like how Kristen Stewart isn't supposed to be photographed with her boyfriend, on account of it upsetting the twihards because "she belongs with Edward".

    Can I also say that sometimes I wish I was Carla Bruni-Sarkozy. Sure, she's probably a man-eating husband-stealer...but she knows a lot of languages and has had a pretty fabulous life. No one's perfect.

    The fashion copyright bill is tricky. It's really, really hard to copyright art, especially with something like clothes. It's difficult to draw the line. Yes, an exact copy is clearly infringing. But then you get to things like similar cuts, similar color combos, etc., and it gets really slippery. It's hard to draw the line in the vast gray area between exact copy and completely different.

    @bluebears: As am I. Of course Boing Boing's going to take that perspective, given where Cory Doctorow stands on IP rights in general, but that doesn't mean he's wrong. The next logical step from his prediction is it's going to make clothing very expensive.


    Mind you, there are some blatant rip-offs that I do wish the original designer had some sort of recourse.

    Oh God, my main memory of Stephanie Seymour is Axl Rose pushing her violently in the "November Rain" video after their wedding where she was wearing a short mini wedding dress. STOP PUSHING STEPHANIE SEYMOUR!

    Question?


    "The chain keeps costs down by manufacturing in low-wage countries like Cambodia" is this fancy talk for sweatshops?


    And don't ALL clothing manufacturers make clothes in low-wage countries? Bangladesh, Turkey, Haiti, Nicaragua... etc. So what is Uniqlo doing that makes their wages uniquely low?

    @LibidinousSlut: To me, it sounds like sweatshop. When something is cheap, there's usually a reason: cheap labor, child labor, no labor unions.

    @Schmalerie: I used to go all the time when I lived in Japan. I have a fleece (boys, because none of the women's clothing fit my Amazonian size) and an umbrella that are 6 years old and still going strong. The fleece was 1000 yen and the umbrella 500 yen - so dirt cheap.

    @jurisenpai: YES - I have some stuff which is not quite as old, maybe 2-3 years, and all of it still looks brand new despite tons of wear and tear and washing. I really want to take advantage the next time they have a cashmere sale, because if the quality of their other items is any indicator, it's a total steal.

    I think it is so strange that people I know think Uniqlo is this hip, chic place. I used to shop there all the time when I lived in Japan because they had sizes that would fit me. We ("gaijin") thought of it as the Old Navy/GAP of Japan. That being said, I wish that they would open one by me.

    @Sputnik_Sweetheart: People probably just think that because it's foreign and not a chain over here. I don't necessarily consider it a super "hip" store, but it's miles better than GAP/Old Navy in terms of pricing and quality, IMO.
