Five or so months into the business of selling garments, I never personally thought we’d be on the “Best of 2010″ list on NY Magazine this early in.. Kind of like our version of the Oscars I guess. It’s as close as I’ll ever get and I think I deserve something new and red carpet to wear to celebrate. But needless to say we’re excited. We’ve had great press from great magazines and blogs such as Racked.com, Style.com, The Thread, Guerilla Shopper, and others and for that we are great appreciative, as we also are to everyone who comes in to either buy something special, chit chat, bring me coffee, whatever.. It’s all great. Thanks from me and Marco.
and just off of the gambling cruise!. Mama Chu, a proud inhabitant of Lincoln Nebraska came to visit her daughter Rachael, Parsons Student and up-and-coming designer! She explained the ways she could turn 20 cent slots into $100! Rachael & Morgane, regular COS patrons also brought in a friend whose name escapes me- and he was VERY excited about the new small addition of menswear! So excited he couldn’t pick, and decided to wait on the Westwood shipment that will be arriving shortly. Understandably! I might hold out for “MAN” myself. LOVE THEM! They brighten up my day instantly when they arrive.
We had our first bridal client, video producer (WWD) & photographer Angela Hodgkinson. I found this dress and said to myself that some modern soon-to-be bride really needed to buy this Dries Van Noten silk bias-cut dress.. My prayers were answered! Coming this summer to NY City Hall! Plans are to accent this dress with Angela’s grandmothers antique brooch. Now I wanna see shoes and some sort of hair ornament.. and her mother’s approval. Actual wedding photos to come this summer..
THE SPRING SUMMER TRENDS SAY EMBROIDERY EMBROIDERY EMBROIDERY!!!

Normally, i don’t see myself writing about this sort of thing, but I stumbled across a blog the other day that had a slideshow of Michelle Obama in all her various outfits.. Killing some time, i decided to go through the 100’s of photo’s! I was shocked! Junya, Lanvin, and RICK OWENS! I love it! Take a look.

This past buying season we brought in Softcore & Zambon pieces directly from Rome, and they were a huge hit amongst all of you! So, hence the new shipment of hand embroidered sweatshirts, trench coats, shirt and sweaters with Built-in capes, and some gorgeous silk dresses among many others.. Available in the States ONLY at CHANGE OF SEASON! We’re proud to announce their arrival.
I was combing the pages of RACKED.COM, our favorite blog and source of entertainment-GO IZZY- and ran across this picture of SS10 Fashion Week & Man-Muse Patrick McDonald in the John Galliano fedora we gave him! YEAH PATRICK! AMAZING AS USUAL..
