Armani will this month launch his latest sunglass venture, a series of eyewear for A/X Armani Exchange, in the latest example of his ambitions for this line.
The launch tightens the links between Armani and Gruppo Safilo, the Italian eyewear giant that produces eye glasses for Emporio Armani and the designer’s signature collection.
The A/X collection comes three years after Armani switched licensors in this sector. Until then, Armani eyewear had been manufactured by Safilo’s major rival Luxottica. However, determined to impose a strict distribution of his eyewear, Armani discontinued his agreement with Luxottica, after that company began retailing his shades and glasses in Sunglass Hut, the large US chain that it owns.
Marc Jacobs' Ex a Label Whore?
Marc Jacobs' (ex?) bf Jason Preston has a tattoo on his arm of the Marc Jacobs logo. Heartwarming or labelwhorey? Well, considering that Preston has a history of being a regular, non-label whore, maybe the latter.
Throw your shorts and short sleeved shirts away! Get
more stylish this fall!
This trend is all about suspenders, workboots, jeans, and heavy coats.
Original inspiration for this look comes from carpenters, coal-miners,
steel workers, and other stereotypically manly careers. Don’t be
afraid to go totally vintage this season when you rock the ski trend.
Comb through vintage shops and even your grandfather’s ski trunk to
grab styles that scream Aspen, a-frames, and aviators. Get a leather
hacket! (half-length, bomber-style, or three-quarter-length)- Get a A
wool or cotton scarf
