The Japanese Dig Emmanuelle Alt & There’s a Child On The Runway At Chanel: Paris Fashion Week Continues
Wearing the exact same outfit as his adult counterpart (a white tweed coat, blue jeans and stompy boots) a little boy werks it at Chanel. Too bad the looks are kinda snore-y. {Grazia}
Every season, for more than a decade, the number of photographers snapping incoming models and editors outside Paris Fashion Week show sites has continued to balloon in size.
Some editors have discovered they are becoming famous in Asia because of such publications, or at least their feet are, since many photographers only take pictures of their shoes. {NY Times}
And just who, among the European editors, is most sought after by the Japanese?
“Emmanuelle Alt,” said Shoko Sakai, of the fashion director of French Vogue. “She’s so cute!”

Gareth Pugh Throws In A Scraf…
Gareth Pugh’s Spring ‘11 collection hit the runway (well, the video runway) in Paris yesterday—and the first pieces hit stores later that night. Style.com reports that the shop-the-runway trend is ramping up lately, and the charge is being led, no great surprise, by younger designers. On September 21, during London Fashion Week, Burberry offered guests at the events the opportunity to place orders straight from the runway through a custom-built Burberry iPad application. Following yesterday’s Pugh presentation, 100 chiffon scarves (in signature geometric print) went on sale Nick Knight’s SHOWstudio.com shop. “Gareth is in the vanguard of designers who grew up using the Internet and understanding its importance and power,” Knight tells Style.com. “He therefore naturally sees it as a means to launch his collection to a massive worldwide audience in a way that represents the complete artistic expression of his work.”
