Modus Loves… Hermes and Liberty
There have been so many collaborations in the fashion world over the past few years. One of my current favourites is the joining of Hermes and Liberty. An extraordinary coupling - the ultimate french luxury house with the quintessential English rose.
The result is beautiful….delicate liberty print cotton scarves and pocket squares printed with those iconic Hermes motifs.

Things Fashion Folk are Talking about on the Front Row # 4 UNIQLO Robot Sales Assitant
Reports are flooding in about Uniqlo’s latest hire - a sales assistant robot sent from Japan to help in the Broadway Store.
Wakamura, a ROBOT from Mitsubishi is spending time in New York. It’s first trip abroad away from home and parents.
It doesn’t speak english that well but is learning and has been drawing a crowd. Wakamaru can answer basic question - How are you? Where and you from? Do you like New York?
Wakamaru isn’t offering any styling advice yet but it’s only a matter of time….

Things Fashion Folk are Talking about on the Front Row # 3 SAVE THE GARMENT DISTRICT!
Following on from the campaign last season - things are hotting up. Quick reminder - the Garment district in New York is seen as the lifeforce for a number of american designers who source design and manufacture their collections in the few city blocks between 7th and 8th Aveune around the 30’s. Property developers are trying to move in and move the fashion companies out to redevelop this prime area of Manhatten.
Nanette Lepore started her business in this area as did a number of other designers and wants to see it remain. At her show this season the back stage T-shirt was a slogan in support of the Garment District. The design team took the opportunity to customise their T’s, with Nanette and her daughter taking a final bow at the end of the runway in theirs.
They even got me wearing one.
