First Look: Jenny Packham for Debenhams Collection

Jenny Packham's gorgeous red-carpet gowns are a favorite amongst red-carpet beauties like Kate Winslet, Angelina Jolie, and most recently, we spotted Kate Hudson in the designer's gorgeous purple sequined gown at the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner. Now, everyone can get a piece of Jenny Packham at a much more affordable price with the launch of the designer's dressy diffusion line, named Jenny Packham No. 1, with UK retailer Debenhams. "I have taken some of our most feminine and glamorous styles and evolved them into a collection for Debenhams," said Packham. "The red dress is a favourite for me as it has an understated dare devil appeal." The collection, priced around $30 to $300, features a range of dresses, statement jewelry, and shoes fitting for any occasion. Furthermore, accessories like feathered headpieces, satin shoes, crystal brooches, and sparkly necklaces are perfect as wedding accessories.

Betsey Johnson Files for Bankruptcy

Betsey Johnson during her  New York Spring 2012 Runway Show.

Fashion designer Betsey Johnson's company filed for bankruptcy protection Thursday night in New York, following poor performance in its chain of retail stores.

The Chapter 11 filing by Betsey Johnson LLC will see most of the chain's 63 stores close, a person familiar with the matter said. Steven Madden Ltd., which owns the Betsey Johnson license, likely will keep four or five flagships in New York City and a few other cities, the person said.

The company employs about 400 people. Its largest creditors include Haskell Jewels, American Express and FedEx Corp., according to the filing.

Sneak Peek: Tracy Reese For Anthropologie Made in Kind Collection

 

Hot off the heels of last month's highly successful Made in Kind debut, Anthropologie has announced that Tracy Reese will be among the latest batch of designers to be featured in the May installment of the online collaboration platform.

Available April 27, Reese's seven-piece capsule will be made up of bright lace and photo-printed dresses, all with the same girlie, vintage vibe the designer is known for. Inspired by the gardens of the Frida Kahlo museum, the collection will be priced around $248 to $348 — much like Reese's already-existing Frock and Plenty diffusion lines. Alongside Reese's collection, Made in Kind's May offering will also feature pieces from UK designer Charlotte Taylor, whose collection of op-art printed shifts and jumpsuits will be priced from $118 to $268, and Byron Lars, whose eight-piece capsule of folk-tinged dresses and tops — titled Beguile by Byron Lars — will be priced from $90 to $280.

A day in the life of Karl Lagerfeld.

Wake up, read, paint, bathe, get a professional hairdo, and have lunch in one of your two houses before heading to the office — such is the daily routine of Chanel couturier Karl Lagerfeld.

The designer explained the quotidian details of his life in the newest issue of Harper's Bazaar, but his days are anything but routine. That's not to say the Kaiser doesn't follow a pattern — it's just an extremely fancy, over-the-top pattern. A few of the highlights below:
