Tennis, Anyone?

The inside scoop behind Doo-Ri's show time slot

Thursday, August 03, 2006

(NEW YORK) Designer Doo-Ri Chung is fast getting famous for her sportswear, but ironically, a new rumor suggests an actual sport may have snagged her Fashion Week plans.

New York Fashion Week typically runs up against the U.S. Open, and Anna Wintour, one of the designer’s earliest pioneers, happens to be a tennis aficionado. She attended last year’s games with daughter Bee Shaffer and Oscar de la Renta, and is likely to repeat her courtside visit this year.

And how does that relate to Doo-Ri? According to insiders, the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund finalist planned to show in the Tents on Sunday, September 10—until she learned it fell on the same day as the U.S. Open’s men’s finals. Reportedly, Chung switched her show date to the following Friday, at 6pm, to accommodate her high profile supporter.

Though Doo-Ri’s current slot comes at the end of Olympus Fashion Week, her fans—including Glenda Bailey and Candy Pratts Price—will*undoubtedly turn out in full force to support the overachieving Jersey girl, and her trademark (and gorgeous) jersey dresses.

L.A.M.B ? Crazy...it didn't go amazing last time. Like generally for a new designer as she is, I am sure it was huge but the response was just so-so.

 

[FashionJury]

what do you think "the look" will be on the catwalks this season upcoming? I feel like fashion has been getting stronger, and edgier...in relation to few seasons ago when everything was very "babyface". Is it just me? What u think

 

[Deleted member 7575]

I hope she really puts out this season (Doo Ri). She's getting so much attention and a lot of oppurtunity, if only she make a knockout collection.

[Doctor Caroline]

See this is what I really detest about fashion in NY....the way certain designers try to revolve their work around the world of Anna Wintour just because of who she is and where she works. Does she really feel that this attempt will actually benefit her in the long-run? There's been plenty of designers throughout the years that's tried this,ultimately becoming mere afterthoughts to Vogue and possibly Wintour herself. Elitism is tripe and slaving to people because of their status is just sad to me.

Having said that,obviously she mustn't be very confident in her work if she's that desperate for approval otherwise it wouldn't really matter.

 

[TheGlassAngel]

I'm more or less really excited about seeing my fav models.

 

[Crakk]

OMG. I will be there and i cant wait. I want to see Marc by Marc Jacobs, Cloak, Rock and Republic, Lacoste and whatever else fits my fancy.

And I will simply have a heart attack if i see Gemma, Vlada, Hana, Du, or Natasha.

i perfectly agree.

thats why even though she is not well liked i had a tremendous amount of respect for what Tara Subkoff said.
regarding new york fashion.
and as a designer working here I definately see this evil system at work firsthand.

thanks for your honesty scott.
it is a virtue that i have the gratest respect for................

 

[jegg]

Scott & Zamb--it only fashion
& "the Daily" is entertainment ...

..with that said -isn't fashionweek for the Press, Editors & Buyers?

 

[Dolce_sarah]

Even if you dont have tickets, can you get to see the shows?
I am planning to go to NYC if we can.....

 

[JJohnson]

Is narcisco part of olympus fashion week!? I thought he was! I dont see him on my schedule! gasp! I wanna go to the show! Also Luelle! UGH! I want them on the schedule!

 

[MakeUpJunkie]

I'm really excited about the schedule. My two must see before I die shows are Heatherette and Betsey Johnson. They are on the same day. If I could find a way to sneak in, I could go to NY for the day. That would be amazing. (I live in NJ so it wouldn't require a plane ride or anything.)
