Fab Flash: All-Star Designer Trio Creates Supergirl Collection

FabSugar — Thu, 31 Jul 2008 11:00:22 -0700

Supergirl is getting a banging new look. In conjunction with Warner Bros., childhood friend designers Shoshanna Lonstein Gruss, Alice Roi, and Laura Poretzky, are teaming up to create a resort collection under the Supergirl brand. Roi, who's known for her edgy signature line; Lonstein Gruss, contemporary designer for Shoshanna; and Poretzky, owner and designer of Abaeté, will be fusing their talents together into one collection.

“When we were creating the line, we talked a lot about how we would wear it. We all worked to push each other into new directions, which helps us a lot when it comes to our own collections. Laura and I never thought we would be putting Alice’s metal studs on a dress, but mixing those things worked well in the end,” said Lonstein Gruss.

The 35-piece collection, showing at the MAGIC show in Las Vegas next month, will include dresses, tops, jeans, and jackets wholesaling between $23 to $193.

Spring Peek: White Lightening

FabSugar — Wed, 10 Jan 2007 12:49:48 -0800

The Spring runways were especially heavenly because of this Spring Peek. White lightening struck many designers this time around and this color manages to look great against tan skin in the summer and pale, flushed skin in the winter. I welcome this look by Thakoon with open (pale) arms. These flowy or crisp white looks, primarily in dresses and separates, can also serve as modern wedding dresses. Soon-to-be brides open your eyes, here are some beautiful white ensembles.
