News of the Moment: Raf Simons to Leave Jil Sander

Hello!

Good bye!

The beloved Raf Simons departed Jil Sander. Perhaps he'll head to Dior? Maybe Yves Saint Laurent? Who knows. I'll miss his work in Jil Sander because he elevated modern fashion to newer and newer heights every season; his shows never disappointed for sure. Well, at least we'll still have his namesake line to look forward to.

It'll be interesting how the fashion saga unravels.

In a dramatic twist of fate, Jil Sander the designer is making a third coming to Jil Sander the brand! After her successful stint at mass retailer Uniqlo, it seems Ms. Sander's return to her founding label shouldn't be overlooked. I'm anticipating what sort of minimalism she will present.

In either case, I toast both of their achievements. It will be interesting how this saga unfolds. So much breaking news in fashion lately.

Quick Vids of the Moment: Not One but Two!

You're in for a treat, folks. Prada recently released their Spring-Summer 2012 video campaign; at the same time, Marni + H&M did so too! Well, if there's anything that can beat this mighty coincidence, it's gotta be someone (ahem, ahem) buying me something neat at my most anticipated H&M collaboration to date.

Quote of the Moment: Stick Figures

"You guys aren't like the interns that go to FIDM. I feel like if I told them to write something smart, they'd give me stick figures."
