The ultimate proposal in fashionforward luxury menswear, the new Couture collection emits sartorial finesse and a sense of nonchalant elegance epitomized by Stefano Pilati, Ermenegildo Zegna Couture Head of Design, with his trademark styling details and pioneering aesthetic codes.

Pilati has created an essential and fresh collection where the fluidity, transparency and lightness of fabrics are applied to the sturdy conventions of menswear to create a new canon for a stylish, masculine and contemporary personality.

The colorful symphony of black and white monochromatic looks unveils a unique summery allure based on contrasting volumes and unconventional silhouettes, whereas Madras injections applied to tailored looks and elongated scarves, worn nonchalantly, become an iconic essential of the season.

“It’s a continuous evolution; there are Zegna’s specific codes, and tailoring is an important category, but here I’ve worked not only on the silhouettes but also on lighter constructions. The construction itself becomes a detail of the look. A deconstructed feeling, but constructed.” Stefano Pilati.

The pinnacle of the Ermenegildo Zegna offer, Pilati’s Spring/Summer 2016 Couture collection is exclusively available at 27 selected worldwide boutiques.

It was quite the scene at the Palladium concert hall on Sunset Boulevard tonight when Hedi Slimane transported his Saint Laurent spectacular to his beloved City of Angels. Bottle blonde Justin Bieber brought his skateboard, and Sly Stallone brought his daughters. Ellen DeGeneres cozied up with Sam Smith, and Gaga, in a gold sequin bomber and golden glitter-rimmed Groucho Marx glasses, bounded across the wide dance-floor runway to greet Courtney Love, wearing a slip of molten pewter lamé that placed her belle poitrine very much sur le balcon. An ageless Jane Fonda (howcould she be 78?) worked a high-rise French pleat and an appropriately star-spangled tux; Lenny Kravitz rocked a beaded breastplate; Asia Chow wore a denim jacket over a frothy tulle prom dress; and Mark Ronson opted for shocking pink.

Slimane has made Los Angeles his base since 2008 (he moved his studio here four years later), and he has continued to channel the city’s quirky vintage, polished grunge and rock ’n’ roll vibe into his Saint Laurent collections ever since—just asYves Saint Laurent himself had Marrakech, Morocco’s pink adobe city where the legendary couturier was rejuvenated and inspired when he discovered that city’s flamboyant color mixes, mind-altering substances, and a whole new hippie de luxe perspective on style. So it was an exciting prospect to be invited to step into Slimane’s world and discover why he fell for Los Angeles’s seductive style when he decided to show his Fall 2016 men’s collection, and Part I of his women’s (Part II will be unveiled in Paris later this fashion season) at the storied Palladium. Steeped in Tinseltown legend, it was built in high Hollywood Moderne style on the site of an old Paramount lot, and opened in 1940 with Tommy Dorsey and his orchestra performing with the 24-year-old vocalist Frank Sinatra.

Slimane bathed the concert hall’s curvaceous ceiling moldings and balconies in flaming orange light and framed the various bands’ equipment against a charming “Hollywoodland” backdrop of spindly palm trees, delicately painted in white-on-black by 18-year-old Lucia Ribisi (daughter of the actor Giovanni Ribisi). The 93-look collection also celebrated the 50th anniversary of Yves Saint Laurent’s Rive Gauche collection, and the looks paid subtle homage to his legacy. The girls, stomping out to PyPy’s “She’s Gone,” were all dressed in the sort of midi-length skirts or culottes and Victoriana dresses favored by Loulou de La Falaise at the cusp of the ’70s, complete with the broad belts, shrunken jackets, or Berber capes she wore with them. The looks also evoked Jane Fonda’s fabulous wardrobe as the high-class call girl in Alan J. Pakula’s style-saturated 1971 movie, Klute (so did hairdresser Didier Malige’s choppy shag-cuts). The glam rock touches—like lightning bolt embroideries and peaked shoulders—suggested David Bowie’s powerfully influential Ziggy Stardust costumes.

The asparagus-lean boys, meanwhile, wore Slimane’s signature sprayed-on jeans, or skinny-cut pants with a military stripe down the side, and elaborately embellished Hussar jackets, like the antique ones once coveted by the likes of Mick Jagger and Jimi Hendrix (many of the looks were styled with no-pictures-please rock star sunglasses). There were velvets and brocades, and jabots and fedoras, and jackets bespangled with Parisian embroideries, all put together to suggest the iconic look of that quintessential Los Angeleno, the fashion rocker and NBA enthusiast James Goldstein. The collection was a love letter to the city Slimane adores. “That was a piece of art in every way,” opined Jeffrey Deitch, who should know art when he sees it. “There’s a lot for me to work with!” laughed Lenny Kravitz.

After the usually reclusive Slimane took his bow (in a ruby velvet jacket, with Oscar Wilde–length hair), the dance floor was mobbed by junior beauties. “I didn’t know there were so many cute, hip people in Los Angeles,” said Lisa Eisner, and I second that emotion. Meanwhile, I was experiencing an acid flashback to the Camden Palace, 1982, with Steve Strange on the door and Boy George on the floor, surrounded as I now was by boys in Brassaï drag, or ra-ra skirts, a girl dressed as a zaftig Ophelia, Linda Ramone in a three-foot-tall white Mad Hatter topper, and a gaggle of pasty-faced, floppy-haired boys in tweedy plus fours who looked, well, exactly like Yours Truly did—goodness gracious me, could it really be 35 years ago?

Then the benches were cleared and the stage was ignited by Father John Misty—the first of 11 performers, each doing three or four songs. Beck followed (casual), and then Joan Jett took to the stage in a spangled red catsuit and a fistful of punk attitude, and she brought the house down with “I Love Rock ’n’ Roll.” Too damn right, Joan. A gaggle of pole dancers from Jumbo’s Clown Room (waiting to perform with the Allah-Las and dressed in teeny rhinestone-studded bikinis) came out of their dressing rooms and were rocking in the wings. “Thank you, Hedi, for making such beautiful clothes!” shouted Jett, and the crowd roared.

Every day more is talking more often of the artwork of David Gilmore, HUF recently shouted him and mad about his body paint and art. But not only is about bodypaint, he also is more into drawings and murals. Can you believe he also did a cover for Numéro 2014 Art Issue? Well yeah, but there’s more he also in VMA’s 2014 painted solid white dancer for Beyonce, her performance begins with that dancer on her lap.

Kanye West has been called many things. Musical genius. 21-time Grammy winner. Reality TV star. And, by USA Today, “the greatest artist of the 21st century?” Well, at least the newspaper posed the question. As of this afternoon, West is also fashion’s foremost disrupter.

New York Fashion Week has never seen anything like Yeezy Season 3. Of course, it helps that West is a world-famous celebrity with a world famous ego, but the audacious fashion show–cum–listening party he staged for his new record, The Life of Pablo, packed Madison Square Garden to the rafters today. Most of the 18,000 or so people in the crowd were fans; scalpers were selling tickets outside, and online they were going for four figures. (For comparison, Givenchy’s Riccardo Tisci had around 800 members of the public at his September 11 show during last year’s Spring shows.) Lines snaked around the concession areas for merch booths selling T-shirts and sweatshirts (at $40 and $90 respectively, quite a lot less than Yeezy prices). And no other designer, though many have surely tried, has been able to nab Caitlyn Jenner as a guest. She was in attendance with the Kardashian clan, and, like her ex-spouse and daughters, was outfitted in a combination of Yeezy and Olivier Rousteing–designed Balmain.

Kanye made his exit wearing one of those merch booth T-shirts. “I Feel Like Pablo” it read, a line lifted from his track, “No More Parties in LA.” The Internet, which has been busy guessing who the Pablo in question is—“I feel like Pablo when I’m working on my shoes. I feel like Pablo when I see me on the news”—is currently leaning toward Picasso.

Today’s show marked another West collaboration with the performance artist Vanessa Beecroft. Towards the end of the record’s chest rattlingly loud first track, “Ultra Light Beams,” the parachute scrim covering the floor of the Garden was pulled back to reveal the 1,200 or so extras West and Beecroft had dressed in the monochrome colors—taupe, ochre, red—of previous Yeezy collections. They stood, divided by gender, circling a pair of refugee tents on top of which models, also divided by gender, stood and sometimes sat in Yeezy Season 3. The collection diverged from Seasons 1 and Seasons 2 in its more varied color palette, but otherwise hued to the streetwear, athleisure-inflected look the brand is known for. Bodysuits, cargo gear, and oversize outerwear were the dominant motifs, though it was tough to discern details from the distance of section 117. At one stagey moment, Naomi Campbell, Veronica Webb, and Liya Kebede emerged in black leotards and holey, floor-length mink coats, joining the other female models on one tent.

The “refugees” and the tents made a searing visual, but one that rendered West’s clothes secondary to the question: Should images of such disenfranchisement be used for the purpose of selling clothes and sneakers? West didn’t take the issue up. Instead, after the album was over he showed a teaser of a video game about his deceased mother’s path to heaven called Only One a couple of times, and riffed on his Yeezy Boosts. “I mean it’s the number one shoe, it’s the number one Christmas present. It’s not regular.” There was also this: “My dream, I told Anna [Wintour], is to at least just for a couple of years be the creative director of Hermès.”

Hey, he practically broke New York Fashion Week. One thing’s for sure, if this is the public-facing fashion show of the future, we’re all going to need earplugs.

Bleeding Heart Mike Petrone is more than a handsome faced, ink model, he is also a United States Army, Purple Heart, Veteran. During a mission, he rushed squadmates out of danger after coming under fire and being struck in the face by shrapnel from a blast. After receiving his Purple Heart, he was released with a medical discharge. The time he spent in the army and the time spent in a battle zone pushed an already selfless person into focusing his efforts on humanitarian work. A true man of valor, he started the movement Cultivate Kindness, "to inspire, motivate, and raise awareness on the importance of volunteering and being kind in our everyday lives." Just recently he released his book Leaving Footprints Behind that chronologues his journey from a soldier, veteran, wanderlust, and humanitarian. Mike is currently on another wanderlust through the southeast of Asia.
