Kate Moss dress, $335 at Barneys.com. Also available in green.New Kate Moss for Topshop pieces are available at Barneys.com. I wish they would put The Row online, but so far, no luck with that.
Kazuko Ocean Jasper Heart, $400 at BarneysIn other Barneys news, jewelry designer Kazuko has died at the age of 65, reportedly of esophageal cancer. Kazuko’s wire-wrapped “healing crystal” pieces have dominated the front-of-the-store jewelry display case at Barneys in New York for as long as I can remember. I’m not sure anyone bought one of those pieces after style icon Tina Chow died in 1992 but there they were, a reminder of the glamorous ’80s. If you’re in New York, stop by Barneys sometime soon. The store is going to pay tribute to Kazuko with a special window display. And you can read a tribute by Simon Doonan of Barneys here.
omg. i honestly would wna see how a “real” girl looks in tt dress!! haha!
anyhow thanks for d comment(:
haha! and yer christy’s fab!!!
love.
I kind of like the Topshop Kate Moss line, though I know a lot of people are down on it.
I’ve never heard of that designer, but I may stop by Barney’s to check out the tribute…
I’m not surprised you haven’t heard of Kazuko. I don’t mean to disrespect her but it’s a fact that that stuff had a deep layer of dust on it for years. I alway found it strange that those pieces were so prominent. I recently started to find them very appealing in a so-old-they’re-new way. “Healing crystals” in fine jewelry and home decor were big for a while. Maybe you can get a post out of that kind of thing. If I go by Barneys before you do, I’ll try to remember to take a photo for you.
P.S. I love the red Kate Moss dress. The color and the one-shoulder look. I just think it’s got too much going on for me otherwise: ruffle, pleats and belt.
The dress is bright but I dont like the one shoulder look but its also because I have “plump shoulders”.That reminds me I need to go and carry the dog.He is getting used to being carried and hates getting down!
Finally, Topshop is available to us ‘Mericans!!! Going to the site right now…
Ooh, I haven’t seen the KM dress in the UK yet. It looks actually looks quite nice. Love the colour!
oh wow! that heart is so beautiful!
I like KM’s line. And the Row is available online at Browns, they dont have much of a selection right now but…
The exchange rates really make the line very pricey, Alexander Wang is much less expensive.
Hey i never realised that the dress was available in red color! Here there’s only black and white! red looks so much better.
