Designer Style: Tricia Rock Spring 2011

June 15, 2011 Fashion

My collection for this year’s 18th Street Fashion Show Summer in Spain features all reclaimed, hand-dyed fabrics. I love creating cool, comfortable pieces that allow a woman to live her everyday life with just a spark of originality. To incorporate the show’s Spanish theme I focused on nature and color, telling the models to imagine themselves in the dusty hot Spanish countryside hanging their linens out to dry.

Please contact Tricia Rock at tricia@therathaus.com if you are interested in purchasing any of these looks.

New Music Review: Widowspeak “Widowspeak”

With a Cat Power alto and Mazzy Star whisper, Widowspeak‘s self-titled debut LP embodies the essence of the 90′s. But with band members born just at the cusp of the decade,  singer/songwriter Molly Hamilton, drummer Michael Stasiak and guitarist Robert Earl Thomas offer not a retelling of the 90′s but a new generation’s interpretation of ...Read More
