The economy is tough even for those at the top of the fashion biz. Here Joan Fabregas makes use of the leftover scraps lying around her shop:
Every once in a while a designer will come up with something that makes me say, "why didn't I think of that?!" Andrea Ayala has done just that with her lampshade hat. Have I been drinking like Atomizer and the Crazy Uke combined or am I just very, very chic?

This piece by Romain Kremer is good, but it seems to be missing something.
