If you don't know her clothes, you may know her from her reality television appearances, which have included the Real Housewives of New York and Project Runway. But Malandrino won't put on a show this season — a fashion show — saying her label "is in a time of transition. We're refocusing and we'll be back in February." Last season, Malandrino showed her lower-priced line, Malandrino, at Fashion Week. Earlier this year, talks with Kellwood about acquiring her label never resulted in a deal. [NYP]
nymagHelmut Lang to Put on Its First Fashion Show Since 2005
Nicole and Michael Colovos started as creative directors of Helmut Lang in 2006 after Theory bought the label from Prada, but they never put on a fashion show. This spring they'll do their first one for the label at New York Fashion Week. You can watch the show live, Saturday, September 10 at helmutlang.com, which is where you'll also find the brand's new e-commerce store this month. If you can't afford to do more than lust after Helmut pieces and are the kind of person who loves photo booths (which would be all of us, let's be honest), the label will be streaming photos from the booth they're setting up in the Soho store at 93 Mercer on Fashion's Night Out, which you can download for your own personal Facebook page or Tumblr or any of the many other ways you wh*re yourself out on the Internet (which we all do, let's be honest).
