Stay in and Play McQueen Chess.



There is no doubt that the Project Crew loves Alexander McQueen, one of the most talented and creative designers of all time. One thing about his fashion shows, there is always something to look forward to.

The video below was a treat for the audience at his Spring/Summer'05 show.

This is how you play chess in the fashion world.

Enjoy!!

The Right Boots for the Big Day.


On Nov 4th, we will be doing two important things: voting for our next President, and trying to find something to wear with our new Kathryn Amberleigh boots. These are the only boots that should be worn on that day. No flats or sneakers allowed, not even flat
boots.
This is a big day for all of us in NYC. Make a statement when you walk into your voting office.

Projects' Staff Weekly Obsession: Ozwald Boateng

Kalyca has a thing for Ozzie.

At twenty-three years old, he had his own fashion line. Before his 30th birthday he became the youngest tailor to open a shop on Savile Row in London. Ozwald Boateng, who was born in Ghana, has given us wildly colorful, slim-fitting, textured suits for two decades now.




The modern day King of Savile Row branched out and reigned over the French fashion house Givenchy as the creative director of menswear for four years, leaving in 2007. With plans to make his innovative presence know in the U.S with his own freestanding shops, men's diffusion line and a women's line, the future looks bright for Ozwald.

Hope he doesn't steer too far away from what he does best though, because no one wears his designs better than the mastermind himself. All Hail Mr. Boateng!!!

Can Older Be Better?




Older men are giving the young boys a run for their money. With age we are supposed to gain knowledge. It's obvious that these men gain that and a lot more when it comes to fashion.

So ladies, there is still hope for our guys. With enough molding and fashion love from us, this is what we can look forward to when we get older.
