Tom Ford Disses Fashion World's Cult of Immediacy - Fashion and Design News and Trends - WWD.com

Tom Ford Disses Fashion World's Cult of Immediacy - Fashion and Design News and Trends - WWD.com

I happen to love Tom Ford - very chic, very beautiful clothing - no matter what category he's designing in. I also love that he can be a little schizophrenic - he goes from women's clothing - to film - to men's clothing - back to women's (not to mention other creative stops in between). And I also find it funny (though not surprising) that this is the "story of the week" - the fact that he so highly controlled his recent launch and everyone is in a twitter about it. I applaud him for his boldness and presenting things the way he wants. He's in a position in his life where he doesn't have to bow down to the "standard" approach of the fashion elite and kudos to him for it. He's having fun with it - and isn't that what fashion should be at its core anyways - fun?

LamanBlu in the News

Wow, what a busy month we've had! And we've been all over the news.....Fashion Fest garnered no fewer than five writeups in varying local publications (we have links to them on our website, www.LamanBlu.com/Press.htm ). Thanks to the Denver Examiner, Your Hub, the Arvada Examiner, Fibre2Fashion and The Villager for their coverage of the event and our show!

We also were in both Earnshaw's Hudson's Childrenswear Review Magazines, the two most respected magazines in the industry. (You can also find links to those on our site.)

Already just 10 days into September, we've been blogged about in "She Got Style" and "Tiny Green Mom" with more coming from "She Knows" and "Lady & the Blog"! (Check back with our site, we will have links posted to those soon.)

Whew! We're genuinely thrilled with all the buzz and very excited about things to come.

We're also working on updating our facebook page - become a fan and tell us what kinds of information you'd like to see! (www.facebook.com/pages/LamanBlu-eco-conscious-designer-clothing-for-children/14765076577 )



Oh, and on another note - did you watch the next to last episode of top chef? - Padma's violetto and chartreuse tie dye dress is a killer match for a mom/daughter look with our violetto and chartreuse tie dye little girls dress! Gotta Have It!
