Akris Fall 2011














Albert Kriemler (Designer)

If you are not familiar with Akris, chances are you are not part of the elite. A pair of slacks will run you about $900 and the jacket about $2000. It's for the wealthy and old money clientele. I love the minimalist designs and the luxurious fabrics. There is not any gimmicks nor the latest trends, it's strictly about beautiful classic pieces lasting forever... now that's being wealthy.

Since debuting on the runway last season, Jourdan Dunn , the British seventeen year old, has taken the fashion industry by storm. She was the first African-American to walk the Prada runway since Naomi Campbell in 1997 which is a damn shame in this day and age! Jourdan kind of put you in a mind of a young Tyra Banks. She is just white enough for the Caucasians but still real enough for us. We will see a great deal of her in the future.

Blair Underwood has been over- shadow by Denzel Washington and Morris Chestnut for so long that we forget how handsome he is (minus his sometimes greasy hair). He was born in Tacoma, Washington in August 25, 1964 but raised as an army brat. He lived all over the United States and Europe. Since 1985 Blair appeared in The Cosby Show, L.A. Law and Sex and the City. Now he is a regular on the HBO show "In Treatment"(lets pray it will not be cancel). Blair is marry to Desiree Dacosta and they have three beautiful children:sons Paris and Blake and daughter Brielle. Blair persona is refine but yet down to earth and thats what makes him irresistible!
