☆ Why auction houses are embracing luxury — and celebrity — fashion
  + stars: | 2024-04-25 | by ( Joan Kennedy | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +8 min
(CNN) — There’s a lot of talk about luxury’s rising prices, but it’s at auction that fashion is selling for the most eye-popping of sums. Fashion items from the sets of TV, film and even commercials can also garner high prices. Frank Augstein/APWhile selling prices are widely publicized, auction houses maintain something akin to attorney-client privilege when it comes to the identities of their bidders. In fact, much of the archival fashion seen on stars today has passed through auction. “That dress would now sell for $10 million because of that double whammy connection of a celebrity,” said Nolan.

☆ How the Renovation of a House Rocked a Famous Church
  + stars: | 2024-04-01 | by ( Ronda Kaysen | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Abyssinian Baptist Church is one of the oldest Black churches in America, and certainly one of the most storied. Hundreds of mourners have gathered at the 216-year-old institution in recent years for the memorial services of Cicely Tyson and André Leon Talley. It’s the kind of church where networking mixes with Bible study, and the roll reads like a who’s who list of Black intelligentsia and entrepreneurship. A year later, Ms. Porter and her husband, Tommie Porter, hired the deacon as a contractor to lead the renovations of the $1.44 million house. “We really loved the idea of keeping it in the community,” said Ms. Porter, 44, host of “CrimeFeed” on Investigation Discovery.

Mr. Talley was the first Black creative director of Vogue Magazine. Mr. Talley didn’t cook, Ms. Thomas said. “I said, ‘You should put stanchions up’” so nobody could sit on it, Ms. Thomas said. Mr. Talley used one of the four bedrooms in the house as a linen closet. “Nobody slept there but me,” Ms. Thomas said.

☆ From Rihanna to Chloë Sevigny, Fashion Week Prioritized Charisma Over Clothes
  + stars: | 2023-02-16 | by ( Rory Satran | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: +1 min
In “Iron Man 3,” superhero Tony Stark is haunted by the existential question of whether the suit makes the man or the man makes the suit. The fashion industry depends on the former—selling clothing that it promises can transform and complete you. And recently, garments have continually trumped their wearers, with interchangeable influencers modeling attention-grabbing trends like micro-kilts, Big Red Boots and bra tops. But these past few days at New York Fashion Week, the message is that, though fashion can help, ultimately it’s the wearer that elevates a look. Even larger-than-life Rihanna in a notably casual, yet punchy, Super Bowl halftime look echoed the theme from afar.
