Is Apple launching an iWatch? The scoop on the company’s first foray into wearable technology
Rumours are swirling that Apple is launching its first piece of wearable technology: the iWatch. With most of our possessions beginning with the letter “i” it was only a matter of time before this extended to our fashion choices and if this is anything nearly as desirable as other Apple products, the fashion industry is in for a shocker when it hits stands, which is reportedly later this year.
According to Fashionista, the man behind the project is Jonathan Ive, Apple’s VP of design a.k.a the man behind the iMac, the product many of us couldn’t live without. While the hardware genius may be top of the game in his own field, you have to wonder whether the stylish Brit (Ive sat front row at Burberry’s Spring 2013 show) is fashion savvy enough to tackle the world of jewellery. Lets be real, the iWatch is more likely to be comparable to Nike’s Fuel Band (but with a complete Apple OS) than a classic Omega. Still, for the item to develop the same cult following as everything else the Apple logo graces, the pressure is on for the designer to develop the ultimate timepiece.

Marc Jacobs confirms that his makeup collection (!!) will launch this year
Last year Marc Jacobs revealed that, in addition to his two eponymous collections, his work with Louis Vuitton, his growing fragrance empire and, oh, everything else he does, he was working on a colour cosmetics collection with Sephora. After months of speculation despite no further details from Jacobs or the beauty retailer, we finally have something new to report on: the Marc Jacobs makeup collection will launch this year.
Jacobs spoke briefly about his work with Sephora at last night’s WWD CEO Summit. Fashionista reported from the event, revealing that he had some anxiety about the collection: “I always wonder, ‘Is there really going to be something else [other than fashion] that we’re going to do that I’m going to sit through and enjoy?’” Thankfully, designing a makeup collection seems to have hit that sweet spot.

They Said/We Said: Has Anna Dello Russo unintentionally spurred an overhaul of the street style photography industry?
While we have always been fans of authentic street style photography, we do have to agree with some points its critics make; namely, the fact that what used to be a chance encounter between photographer and subject on the streets has devolved into a deliberate spectacle, with some industry types spending weeks meticulously planning trend-laden […]
