Project Runway; With Imodel’s Catherine Tran.
Adonis
It’s that time of year to get revved up about fashion, it’s consequences and the great lithe figures that take centre stage. Applaud, desire and wonder at will, one also has to take a step back and ask whose...
Sally Shan- the Girl that could. Part 2.
We here at Scallywag and Vagabond have been amused, flabbergasted and intrigued by the depth of response given our recent coverage of this wonderful lady's ascent to the heights of social paramours. That said, we decided to give you...
Pre-Fashion Week Fuss- Loris Diran.
Last Thursday marked the much-anticipated launch of Loris Diran’s flagship store. “My Goodness, there are a lot of people here!” remarked the glowing designer as he floated into his crowded opening party. And there were a lot of people...
Kithe Brewster: Style Director Visionary. If only you could be as talented…
Kithe Brewster doesn’t have to try. What he does is breathe, relate, reflect and look into your soul. It is this sensibility and awareness of high fashion that has brought you his fashion covers, the world’s most glamorous onto...
If only you were as Glamorous as us!
I am in the business of covering of all things that are glamorous. Or perhaps I should preface this by saying “I am in the business of all things that are perceived to be glamorous.” It’s a role that...
Kenny Kenny and Alanah misbehave….again.
What’s a boy or for that matter a girl, or someone caught in between to do? Last Friday this Scallywag dropped by the monthly Circus party at HQ to partake in the combustible revelry. With flying Cheerio cereal boxes,...
So Cliché, It’s Not. What is the American Wedding Fantasy? We go to Brides Magazine to find out.
In a world of hyphenated last names and bulletproof prenups, it’s totally amazing that the traditional wedding is still a female fantasy. Do brides-to-be realize that their virginal white gowns are not-so-significant when they consummate the marriage on the third...
Looking for Guevara on Canal st.
Traveling to Canal Street, I descend from the Botoxed, done-up face of Time Square capitalism into the bowels of the American economy. For if Time Square is an expression of the American dream to drive fancy cars, drink expensive...
Surface magazine honors Function over Form. A Night out at Operation.
If you’ve ever wanted a lesson in how imagination, attention to form and utilitarian function come together you needed to attend last night’s homage to Operation, the new wonderful enfant terrible of menswear. If on the other hand you...
I’d Like this in a 6 and a Glass of Cristal.
For most, 5th Avenue is the epitome of New York glitz and glamour. For me, it is the perfect catalyst for a panic attack. I frequently find myself hyperventilating while fighting through idle mobs of tourists, running away from...
Doomed to be Cliche.
There comes a time in a woman's life, around the quarter century mark, that she has a quarter century crisis. Mine happened about a month ago, as I sat in a market bar, around 11 pm, sipping champagne and...
Let’s Go to Chloé and Talk About Plato.
Katharine K. peers into Bobo culture to examine the undercover upperclass and their seamless sense of style.
Start with equal parts Bohemian and Bourgeois. Add a splash of Beatnik, a dash of literati, a pinch of pretension and voila! You...
Unvogue Magazine. The Precocious Magazine that could.
We here at Scallywag and Vagabond have always been impressed with spunk and bravado…and dare we say sordid acts of misbehavior. Coming along to Tyson Perez’s Christmas bash the other night at DEX, certainly gave us a chance...
The Indelible Rise of the Model, Designer, and Fashionista.
They've become ubiquitous lately, the scrawny girls with giraffe like cheekbones, meta-chic cadence and their pronounced lilts. Seen cozening up in the luminous lounges of 'Bijoux,' 'Soho Grand' and other diamond tiara sprinkled trinkets they've captured the imagination, inspiration,...
Brooklyn Fashion Weekend Oct 3rd-5th, Spring 2008.
Last month's display at BKFW brought together a ballad of grunge, Victorian, preppy auteur, languid hip hop veneer and avande garde sensibilities. There were some notable hits, Nico and Adrien as always excelled with their slinky collisions, Catou, impressed...
