A few weeks ago, WWD featured an article revealing Zac Posen's new Contemporary/Sportwear line, "Z Spoke," which is suppose to be for a "downtown, edgier girl" looking very similar, if not exactly, to the Marc Jacobs girl-->check it out--> http://www.wwd.com/fashion-news/zac-posens-new-venture-2375111// He uses graffiti, pops of mis-matched colors, and challenging silhouettes.
Posen describes this as an "urban hipster quality" and "more attuned to the streets" ($700 for a knit dress? Really? And what hipster is buying this?) And how does this coincide with his evening gowns? Many designers have successfully launched a lower-end line, which reflects to their higher end atheistic, but this one is over my head. Perhaps it's the result from retailers & press urging higher sales.
With this, I'm going to give you a topic, and feel free to discuss over some coffee, and perhaps in a Linda Richman accent:
Is it Posen or Jacobs?-Discuss-
