Have. Want. Need.
We're currently smitten with bomber jackets for Winter thanks to this season's obsession with the sporty trend. Designers like Phillip Lim, Givenchy, and Alexander Wang all showed their rendition on the runways in the way of silk-sleeved bombers, varsity jackets, and sleek printed options.

Sophie Hulme is a designer that marches to her own drum beat. After graduating from Kingston University in 2007, Sophie wasted no time creating a Fall collection. Inspired by menswear and military pieces, her jackets, coats, bags, and hats are slightly off-trend and unique. I love how her masculine and minimalist cuts are intertwined with feminine details such as a fabulous twisted bow on the Read more
Welcome to day 3 of our week-long look at coat trends for Fall 2006. (To read yesterday's installment, click here.) Today’s spotlight: bomber jackets.

It was a definite departure from past collections that hung purely in the sleek and sophisticated category. This collection felt younger, almost teen-like. Read more
Derek Lam's runway show today at St. John's center was worth the freezing trek through wind tunnels. For Fall, Lam mixed his ladylike style with a sportif twist melding chic separates with a menswear twist.

Inspired by the "1960s rogue girl with a Japanese street sensibility," Gwen Stefani chose to show off her latest L.A.M.B designs against a collage of black-and-white New York City street snaps and closeup shots of girls getting their eye makeup done, all while Nancy Sinatra's "These Boots Were Made For Walkin'" boomed overhead. Each look seemed to reflect a moment in Gwen's iconic style Read more
There are few people who can pull off the good and the wildly fantastical looks we see come down the runway as well as Vogue Japan's editor-at-large Anna Dello Russo does. Her absolute love of fashion is apparent in every luxe fur coat, ornate dress, silky bomber jacket, leather pant, oversized fascinator, vintage necklace, and enviable pair of heels she wears — and therefore, we can't help but Read more

Bono and wife Ali Hewson founded Edun in 2005 with the intention using fashion as a way to promote trade and industry in Africa. Today, new creative director Sharon Wauchob debuted her second collection that was as much about the clothes as it was about Edun's underlying motive.
