Cushnie & Ochs in NY Mag + Chanel First Black Model to Stomp in Gucci Since 2005

*New York Magazine interviewed Carly Cushnie and Michelle Ochs, recent Parson's graduates and winners of its Designer of the Year award:
Labeled the 'next Proenza Schouler', their line called Cushnie & Ochs is characterized by, "super-sleek, razor-sharp minimalist designs and neon brights..." They're ones to watch. Read their interview here. [NYMag]
*Chanel Iman strutted in the Gucci show in Milan yesterday...

Get her look with the $78 BDG Intarsia Shawl Collar Cardigan from Urban Outfitters.
*Check out looks from Bixby, Andre Benjamin's new line:
