New York Street Style
Downtown New York is the epicenter of style. All winter, our intrepid photographer is stalking the streets in search of the city’s most interesting men. See all the looks here.
Maison Martin Margiela RTW Fall 2012
Make mine a double. In a season where many designers are creating coats wide enough for two, Maison Martin Margiela applied its trademark deconstruction technique to the men’s suit, which morphed into everything from the aforementioned extra-wide coat to all-in-ones slit to the thigh on one leg.
Haider Ackermann RTW Fall 2012
Extraordinary! With the collection he showed on Saturday morning, Haider Ackermann continued on his trajectory of awe. His show captivated with beauty as it intrigued, on one level with a moody aura, and on another, with extreme complications of cut (surely a pattern maker’s nightmare). The combination made for a fashion lover’s delight.

Dior Said Closing In on Raf Simons Deal
Raf Simons for Dior? Hm. Very interesting.
Now that Marc Jacobs appears to be out of the picture at Christian Dior, industry sources said the French fashion house is closing in on a contract with acclaimed Belgian designer Raf Simons to become its next couturier.
A deal with Simons, 43, has yet to be concluded, and sources cautioned that several key details must be worked out. Chief among them would be a start date, given that Simons, creative director at Jil Sander since 2005, would have to unravel his contract with that Milan-based house, which is understood to have been extended recently for an unknown duration.
