FRANKFURT -- German fashion company Escada AG filed for bankruptcy after being unable to obtain sufficient financing, a Munich district court said Thursday.
The Munich-based luxury label, famous for women's fashion and accessories, was expected to make the filing this week after it failed to get the necessary support for a bond swap.
Escada, once one of the biggest fashion brands in the world, has seen its sales and earnings decline in recent years.

Fashion Loses An Icon

NEW YORK — Naomi Sims, whose 1968 Ladies' Home Journal cover shot was a breakthrough for black fashion models, has died. She was 61.
Sims, said by some to be the first black supermodel, died Saturday of breast cancer in Newark, N.J., said her brother-in-law Alexander Erwiah, the president of Naomi Sims Beauty Products. It had been decades since she left the runway to become an author and launch her own beauty empire.
Sims attained success at the same time that the "Black is Beautiful" movement was taking hold, and her accomplishments as a barrier-breaking African-American model helped pave the way for the black runway stars of the 1970s, including Pat Cleveland, Alva Chinn and Beverly Johnson.

Folks Show Off At Jazz & Ribs Fest

Oh no..Fashion Commandment--Thou shalt not come outside with your azz cheeks hanging out.

Okay..I appreciate the fact that they are WEARING bras..but this look is not OK. I know for a fact that you can buy a bustier in EEE..lets get it together
Lest I forget..99% of the festival goers were not in need of a fashion citation..and I'll even give credit to the chick above for looking fab with the silver accessories..although in all black long sleeves she was probably hotter than Satan's azz crack.
