...fashion industry examines its bloodlines and reviews its heirs apparent, young Hispanic designers have their chance to shine. Last year's winner of the Rising Star award, Esteban Ramos, 26, wowed the crowd with a Spanish tango collection of ruffled tops and sweeping skirts in periwinkle, mint and peach. For this year's gala, he will feature richer, deeper colors, hand-woven textures and fabric accented with tassels and trims. "Picture a sarape, or Mexican blanket," he says. "That's my theme." Already his vision has caught the eye of the fashion establishment. "If Karl Lagerfeld had designed those dresses...
...strikers hailed from Hollywood, not Pittsburgh, so they sported sunglasses and peach-colored sweaters instead of hard hats and work boots. But the walkout by the 9,000 members of the Writers Guild of America (W.G.A.), now in its eighth week, is threatening to become as disruptive and gritty as any other industrial deadlock. When representatives for the writers and producers sat down with a federal mediator last week to resume their talks, the meeting broke up after only 20 minutes.

...Francisco Graphic Designer Michael Vanderbyl looks to Europe for inspirational rigor. The checkerboard fields and two-tone corded trim of Vanderbyl's bed linens for Esprit recall Josef Hoffmann. The palette (peach, delft, ash) is sober and cool, Wiener Werkstatte monochrome given a pastel California ruddiness. Vanderbyl sheets would go nicely in a Christopher Alexander house. Alexander, a Berkeley architect and urban theorist, has lately turned his militantly humanist attentions to office furniture. No workstations or open plans for him. Instead, Alexander and his colleagues have designed mass-production desks and bookcases that are solid and reassuringly old-fashioned, classic...
