CFDA CELEBRATES 50

Even though Johnny Depp and Rei Kawakubo of Comme des Garcons were and a no show at last night's CFDA awards, there were plenty of stars and plenty of fashion.
Our very own Cameron attended in a custom made Nicole Miller suit with a coordinated custom made hat by Rod Keenan, Shamballa jewels, Burberry shoes and custom Lisa Kingsley bag. Photographed here by style.com with darling Jennifer Tilly in custom Nicole Miller.
Although absent to the event, Kawakubo send a powerful message: "I think the world and its values are too often lukewarm. I'd like to make them hotter."
Congrats to all the winners last night!!

MARANT MAVENS ON THE MOVE

Who doesn't love Isabel Marant? Model-chic-in-her-skinnies, Marant has slowly and steadily built a name for herself over the past twenty years. And those trials and tribulations have paid off. After all, Marant, no longer just the queen of Franco fashion, is the reigning go-to for cool clothes hanging in the closets of uptown and downtown girls alike, no matter which urban jungle you call home.

And while Marant's wares may be in heavy rotation for each and every modern girl, her clothes owe vintage designers a big debt. She's clearly studied the greats and taken notes. From Mugler to Muir, you can see vintage details in each and every collection, be they in tone or trend. Even those beloved scrunchy boots that secured Marant's position as the guru of slouchy style reminisce of 70s disco-era foot candy.

So, for today's Through the Decades section on our website, I pulled a few Isabel Marant pieces and paired them with vintage pieces that have a similar vibe. From ruby paisley prints to stretchy draped dresses to from Studio 54 desert palettes to military flair, these pieces are musts for Marant girls. Personally, I've got my eye on the best ever Thierry Mugler jumpsuit known to man. But, that's just me.
