del.icio.us fashion links for August 27, 2010:
So far neither Mr. Toledano nor Richemont have commented, possibly as they work out legal terms, but a statement could come tomorrow.
A small group of online media joined Jeanne Beker at The Bay headquarters for a preview of EDIT by Jeanne Beker. Since everyone is doing the celebrity lines why not Jeanne. She at least has the years of fashion knowledge that makes it palatable to me. Jeanne never claims to be a designer. She’s partnered with the Corwick Group from Montreal who takes on the designer duties. It was a great experience to have Jeanne at our disposal and she talked about the industry and the changes that have happened with online. She made a crack about how everyone in the room probably weren’t of an age to remember a Pre-Fashion Television world. However, there were a couple of us that chimed in to correct her. Fashion Television is celebrating 25 years and the release of EDIT by Jeanne Beker is to to coincide with the anniversary.
This 25 piece capsule collection will be available in 65 Bay stores in September. It consists of Jeanne’s personal selection of silhouettes and colours she feels are must haves. These are wardrobe building pieces. Classic items that you can pair with anything. Separates are chosen in a way so that the collection can serve a work and casual purpose. Casual means denim and there are Jeanne Jeans and Jeanne Jeggings to fit the bill. That’s right jean leggings. A portion of sales from the jeans goes toward Dress for Success, a non-profit organization that provides tools for career development to low-income women,
“Having worked in fashion’s trenches for 25 years now, in a career that often has a lot to do with “appearances”, I’ve learned a thing or two about wardrobe essentials and how the right choices can help not only make dressing easier, but a lot more fun. What a joy to be able to reach out to such an eclectic array of women who are like-minded, and understand fashion’s potential to build confidence, and ultimately empower us!”
~ Jeanne Beker
The standout piece of this collection for me is the Camel Cape Jacket for $195. Prices range from $80 – $195 and sizes from 2 – 16. You can get a chance to meet Jeanne as she will be starting a national flagship store tour in October to promote the line.

I’m amazed at how much I enjoy watching Raquel Zimmerman dance around in Gareth Pugh.
On 20, 23 and 24 November 2009, world-renowned fashion designer Gareth Pugh took up residence in the LiveStudio to handcraft a one-off garment for SHOWstudio SHOP. The entire process of creation was recorded and broadcast live to a global audience, while Pugh’s final dress was modelled by Raquel Zimmermann in a unique and truly unprecedented one-off performance.
The Fall Winter 2010 – 2011 ad campaign for Hermès is a lot darker than Spring Summer 2010 which was fairytale like. The Avengers theme from the runway show goes hand in hand with these photos. It’s like the lovely spy who is decked head to toe in Hermès makes her getaway with her SO Black Kelly. She just can’t leave her wardrobe so she gets her kindly old mentor to have them moved to her safe house by carriage. Of course, this generous act will result in his death. Yada, yada, yada. I should write screenplays. Ha
This is the SO Black Kelly that baghounds have been salivating over. I’m salivating too and I totally realize that the black packaging is definitely selling this bag.

I remembered hearing about this Scott Weiland last year. I promptly forgot about it as it’s just another celebrity line. It came back on my radar because The Bay is bringing Scott to Toronto for a public appearance.
The Bay is thrilled to announce the launch of The Scott Weiland Collection by English Laundry. Scott Weiland, legendary lead singer of Stone Temple Pilots (STP) and Velvet Revolver will be doing a personal appearance at the Bay, Queen Street on August 29th at 2:30pm to promote his clothing line. The new collaboration with Christopher Wicks, designer and owner of English Laundry, embodies the iconic style of the fashionable Stone Temple Pilots front man. In support of Weilands appearance,
Canada’s pre-eminent new rock expert Alan Cross will be interviewing him in front of alive crowd.The Scott Weiland Collection by English Laundry is a lifestyle brand for the true rock rebel. The overall concept is derived from the rock decadence of the 1960’s, and inspirations were taken from Savile Row circa 1965 and renowned bands such as The Kinks, Beatles, and Rolling Stones. Eclectic combinations of fabrics, patterns and color
have been reformulated to replicate the rich rock culture that defined that era.
