Marc Jacobs's Wanted Poster


In a tongue-in-cheek reference to the unknown thief (or thieves) who stole his Spring collection samples, Marc Jacobs posted a wanted sign in the window of his Mercer street store. The sign cleverly points out the fact that no one has been able to determine who stole the 46-piece line, but notes that "the thief is still at large and is now considered dressed to kill." It's also been made into a $28 t-shirt. [Racked]

Iris van Herpen: Futura Couture



Photographed by Jouk Oosterhof goes inside the old naval warehouse studio of young Dutch fashion prodigy haute couture designer Iris van Herpen as her first major solo exhibition opens at the Groninger Museum in the Netherlands, for Nowness.com

Lauded for her intricate sculptural creations made using advanced 3D printing techniques, Van Herpen has seen her dresses worn by the likes of Lady Gaga, Solange Knowles and Lindsay Lohan.

So does fashion feel like sculpture to you?I make sculpture dresses, but I do see my dresses as different to sculpture. I really need the movement of a person inside my clothes to make the whole thing alive and give it purpose. It gives an identity to the person, while the person gives identity to the piece.

Alberta Ferretti for Macy’s



Alberta Ferretti for Impulse only at Macy's $109
Just in time for wedding and prom season,Alberta Ferretti has whipped up a collection of perfect dresses–at prices we can afford–for Macy’s Impulse line.
From a pretty maxi frock with braided straps, to a super-hot one-shouldered evening gown, there’s seriously a dress for every occasion. Ferretti also designed a handful of easy everyday pieces like open knit sweaters in cream and navy, and floral and lace tops. We saw part of the collection last night at the line’s launch party and we have to say, the pieces looked even more high-end and pretty IRL, although that may have had something to do with the fact that the looks were styled with live doves in birdcages, and set against a blooming cherry blossom tree.
The collection won’t hit stores until April 17, but you can see the whole thing right here and now–All the better to scope out your must-have purchases.
