Priceless


What do you call over 90 Alexander McQueen outfits, 50 Philip Treacy hats and a collection of Manolo Blahnik shoes all owned by the late and great Isabella Blow?

An auction will be held on September 15 by Christie's in London on behalf of the Blow estate.

Grunge


If you love the 90's as much as I do, you will love this book. I picked it up because it's called Grunge, and because I expected lots of photos of Cobain, Courtney and other hygienically challenged kids. I wasn't disappointed. Even more interesting though are the images from the late 70's and 80's, chronicling the styles and 'non fashion' statements of it's subjects. Get it here.
