the look
dressy utilitarian

more press...

inspiration
furniture (especially chairs from the 50s and 60s), uniforms, repeating patterns, menswear, Oscar Niemeyer, traditional Japanese architecture, the Rimpa School and Ogata Korin's 8-Point Bridge, Matisse, bromeliads, succulents and other waxy flora

particular loves
bamboo, coral, moss, woodgrain, silhouettes & other cut-outs, plastic, low-resolution images, the photo copier, off-registration prints, Max Ernst's Lunar Asparagus, NYC fire call boxes that look like Kannon, Fauvist color sense, the Noguchi Museum, pretty much all of Abstract Expressionism

magazines of current interest
Domino, Elle Decor (British), ARTnews, Art in America, Wallpaper

favorite heel style
the wedge, but a sleek modern interpretation

second favorite
the stiletto

current shoe obsession
alas, the sneaker. (because I live in nyc and walk a ton!) but not too sneakery of a sneaker. more of a sneaker disguised as a shoe, like a mary jane style or a high-tech looking black one with a metallic accent. how about Royal Elastics? I must go try some on. I really like the non-sneakeryness of their styles.

fashion's night out


So they've finally done what they've been threatening to do. Sell tickets to a fashion show. And if you're interested in participating in what Fashion's Night Out touts as "the largest public fashion show in New York City history" (New York institutions just love hyperbole), then you best get ready to click at the stroke of 10am tomorrow! Or if you're the wait-in-line-all-night type, you should grab your camping chair or whatever and head on over to the Alice Tully Hall or Avery Fisher Hall box office right now (Lincoln Center, Broadway at 65th Street). Again, tickets go on sale tomorrow at 10am. Here's the box office phone number too: 212.721.6500.

The event will take place on the Josie Robertson Plaza, near the main fountain. Good luck!

Update
I have a better idea. Just get a dinner reservation at Rosa Mexicano and request to be seated near the window upstairs!
