Patrick Robinson Lands New Job at Armani Exchange: 4 Things You Can Expect
Back in May 2011, Gap’s head designer Patrick Robinson was ousted from his post following a four-year tenure at the company. Besides a general dip in Gap’s North American sales, the consensus was that Robinson’s sensibility was simply too high-fashion for the brand. Since then, he’s kept a relatively low profile, working on Pashko—a sportswear line that was recently launched on Kickstarter.

Fashion & Art Collide at the Harris Theater
Arts productions are wonderful, not just because of the grace, beauty and unrelenting discipline that goes into them, but often because of their costumes. Opera productions are known for their elaborate and intricately made costumes, but as of late, the dance realm has jumped into the action. In 2011, we saw the Rodarte sisters take their couture-level tailoring to the ballet in the blockbuster hit, Black Swan. More recently, Oscar de la Renta teamed with the Joffrey to create all of the costumes for the Twyla Tharp piece, Nine Sinatra Songs. Since the fall, Hubbard Street has paid homage to costumes, too, with their installation running concurrently during each of the 35th anniversary series this year.
