Ralph Lauren haters rejoice!! Just what you've all been waiting for... (Is this man powerful, or what!!??
Page Six Thursday NY Post:

September 6, 2007 -- CATTY fashionistas are griping about Ralph Lauren's Saturday fashion show in Central Park, because as one insider put it, "he's stealing all the models." Lauren asked his runway models like Caroline Trentini, Flavia Oliveira and Chanel Iman to sign contracts saying they "wouldn't be in any other shows that day," said the source. "He's making it extremely hectic for other designers showcasing their spring collections that day. Ralph embargoed his models. They are forbidden to walk in other shows. Everyone is going nuts."

That wasn't entirely true...Ralph only required that all the girls be to his show five hours prior to its start. Flavia and Natasha Poly, at least, walked in the Temperley show which was before his...

In the Tents Until 2010

Fashion Week remains in Bryant Park for next two years
Monday, September 10, 2007

(NEW YORK) IMG Fashion, the producer of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, announced today that it has reached an agreement with the city of New York and the Parks Department for the twice yearly event of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week to remain in Bryant Park through February 2010. It is the longest term contract ever signed by IMG with Bryant Park.

"We couldn't be happier," said IMG FashionSVP Fern Mallis, "the event is synonymous with Bryant Park and, though the search for a new location continues with the Mayor's office and Parks Department, we are happy that all parties will be able to continue to plan for upcoming events while new locations are explored by IMG in concert with the City."

The Spring 2008 Collections, currently running through September 12th in the event's iconic white tents, feature over 60 collections.

I am horrified that there are so few choices in men's clothing in the American fashion industry. I hope US schools and designers fill this strange void in the marketplace.
