Japanese designer Tsumori Chisato, famous for cute clothes with cute prints, is working on a capsule collection for French children’s brand Petit Bateau, which has long been a magnet for stylish French mamans who are just as wont to don the tiny tees themselves.

Sonia Rykiel gives us sweet French dreams
We know we harp on a little bit about the daily barrage of fast-fashion designer collaborations, but we are quite excited for the Sonia Rykiel for H&M lingerie line that hits stores tomorrow (see hm.com for locations). Like, be at the store when it opens excited. Cute, affordable lingerie can be tough to find in a world filled with over-padded bras and bedazzled thongs, but the Rykiel pieces are so pretty and so French that we almost can’t stand it. Really, we dare you not to buy the sheer rosette bras, adorable multi-coloured stripes and blush pink silks.
See some of our favourite pieces after the jump.

Morrissey and Stella McCartney design vegan footwear

At the link, read about one […]

Though it seems like an unlikely pairing at first, Lost’s Jorge Garcia and Christie Brinkley work out, make nachos and generally live the good life together in the pages of Vogue Deutsch. Of the pairing, photographer Bruce Weber says: “Christie is the ultimate California beach girl and Jorge is the ultimate hippie.” So they both have the less-is-more, beach bum thing going on. More photos at the link. [Fashionista]
Seems that Emanuel Ungaro himself agrees with the rest of the world that Lindsay Lohan’s debut collection for his fashion house was disastrous. Are we susprised? Ungaro, who sold the company in 2005, said, “I am furious but I can’t do anything about it.” Going on, the designer lamented that his fashion house “is in the process of losing its soul.” [The Cut]
