Lauren plans to test his mythic chic with several new lines targeted directly at Generations X and Y, that $250 billion demographic of teens and twentysomethings who are increasingly driving the fashion marketplace. There Polo/RL has to fight with Hilfiger, Abercrombie & Fitch and a host of upstart brands. It's a battle in full swing. "Polo's kind of peaked," says Robert Tucker, 21, a bike messenger in New York City; "the thing right now is Pelle Pelle," an urban street-wear label.

This collection of random musings from the monologist-actress and chic wit again makes the case that Bernhard's brand of observational humor is like no one else's. In her new work, Bernhard draws on her boundless imagination to pay homage to her housepainter, Jewish mysticism and Brenda Vaccaro while conjuring up ad campaigns for Mother Teresa-inspired day wear. Do we mind that Bernhard's reflections can be a bit too solipsistic, a bit over the top? Nope...
