Spotted at NY men's fashion market: Robert Burke

Filed under: Events: On the Scene, Men, Celebrities with Style



We ran into Robert Burke, a familiar face from the front row, just outside the men's room at a trade show, Blue, this week. The former senior VP at Bergdorf Goodman currently oversees his own, big time consulting company but still manages a type of effortless style.

He's got a summer weight, two-piece suit and skips on a tie to beat the heat. Then, add those signature glasses for a touch of whimsy and a tad of intellectualism. The look is totally soft and approachable, classic and tailored but still relaxed and refined. We're digging what Mr. Burke puts together. Anyone else?

StyleFoul: stupid orange cowboy hat

Filed under: Men, Celebrity Fashion Mistakes

Ah, yes. Welcome to Men's Fashion Week in Milan. Yesterday, we learned that Versace is scoring big with clerically-inspired outerwear, and today we learn that Vivian Westwood has been dropping acid (or something).

Don't get me wrong, I live in Austin, TX -- the capitol of "cowboy chic," where it's cool for even the most self-deprecating, sensitive indie-rocker types to butch up with a pair of Justin boots. But the irony is completely lost when you make the hat so obnoxiously campy that Richard Simmons wouldn't be caught dead in it.

The purple granny cardigan only adds salt to the wound. Needless to say, I'm embarrassed for cowboys everywhere.

(Thanks to Manolo for the heads up)
