Alvin Lustig Limited Edition Prints

Alvin Lustig was one of the greatest graphic designers of our time. Available now on his website are limited-edition prints of some of his well-known book covers. Gorgeous color, composition and typography. Screenprinted by master printer, Luther Davis, “Colors were mixed by hand to match the original jackets from the 1940’s and printed on high quality 100% Cotton (lightly textured, soft white) Archival Coventry Rag (335gsm) using water-based inks and enamel black.” Gorgeous stuff. I’d love to have one on my wall.

Left to right from top row: A Season In Hell by Arthur Rimbaud, 1945. Three Lives by Gertrude Stein, 1945. The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald, 1945. Amerika by Franz Kafka, 1946. All prints $100 each. Limited edition of 100.

Michael Kors Fall 2007

Amazing sportswear at Michael Kors. Some might find sportswear boring but I tend to love these very comfortable looking clothes… mostly because they are still work appropriate. Kors showed mostly neutrals with pops of yellow (love gray for fall in general) in cashmere knit plus lots of fur.

Monique Lhuillier Fall 2007

Monique Lhuillier’s collection seemed a bit different than what we’re used to seeing from her. This time, lots of short dresses with a kind of severity. I did like the embellishments on the short dresses. We’re seeing an awful lot of metallics for the fall season, I’m noticing.

Behnaz Sarafpour Fall 2007

I don’t know what it is but I was totally getting a Little Red (Black) Riding Hood vibe from that first look. I’m kinda loving it. Again, with the short dresses… I’m noticing a lot of designers this season are showing minidresses.

Derek Lam Fall 2007

God damn, Derek Lam. Absolutely loved this one. Those coats are to die for and the short dresses are so amazing.

Naeem Khan Fall 2007

Naeem Khan (who I just found out created those great sparkly dresses for the Dreamgirls finale) sent out some great dresses as part of his fall 2007 collection. I really liked the jeweled necklines and the long flowy fabrics.
