I came to fashion consciousness during the grunge era, which is to say I understood fashion only as antifashion. I wore striped overalls, ripped T-shirts, Converse. Special occasions called for ill-fitting thrift-store dresses accessorized with work boots and cardigans. As a teenager, I looked like I'd wandered off a dairy farm and onto the streets of lower Manhattan. When I hit my early twenties, I began to suspect that dressing sexy was not strictly a patriarchal conspiracy. I bought clothes that actually fit and, lo and behold, became a born-again heels wearer—a zealous and devout convert. As an impoverished assistant, I wore the tallest heels I could find, in the hopes that their startling height would blind people to the fact that they were from Payless. I became adept at…

In a new era of refinement, the lure of piled-on, more-is-more gold seems rebelliously cool again—just ask Rihanna. Amanda FitzSimons goes for broke Hong Kong high-fashion emporium Lane Crawford might seem an unlikely backdrop for an existential crisis, but when jewelry designer Eddie Borgo found himself there amid a display of unapologetically tacky gold chains during a business trip last year, it became exactly that. "We had sort of been pegged as a rock 'n' roll brand up until this point," says Borgo, whose tough-girl spiked cuffs and rough-hewn silver necklaces—and the ethos they represent: raw, edgy, downtown—have amassed a cult following since he founded his label in 2008. "But all of a sudden that accessorized-to-the-hilt look seemed fresh." Borgo, whose spring collection includes perforated brass-plated door-knocker earrings (a haute…

Museum Quality: FRANCISCO COSTA FOR CALVIN KLEIN "John Chamberlain's compressed metal sculptures inspired this idea of compactness seen throughout the collection," says Calvin Klein's ever-fastidious women's creative director, Francisco Costa, "from the textures and construction of the clothes down to the crushed-gold heels on the platform sandals." Graphic shadow—beautifully executed in the sensual black-and-white nudes of photographer Fernand Fonssagrives—also played a role, translated as contrast details on jackets, pants, and these color-blocked booties. BODY WORK (Clockwise from top) Fonssagrives' Contours, circa 1954–1958; Chamberlain's C'Estzesty, 2011; the designer; Fonssagrives' The Dancer, 1952 From left to right: crushed-gold-heel platform pump, $1,495, calfskin bootie, $825, alligator portfolio, $13,200, all, CALVIN KLEIN COLLECTION, at calvin klein collection (nyc), call 212-292-9000 A Place in the Sun: DOLCE & GABBANA "A true explosion of color," says…

"This is going to sound like a very perverted interview!" Tom Ford roars. We've been chatting about, ostensibly, the designer's spring 2013 collection, whose S&M touches—risqué lacing and peekaboo honeycomb textures—had reviewers running riot with allusions to Fifty Shades of Grey. But this being Tom Ford, we've taken unscheduled detours into other topics. Namely, breasts. (He hates fakes: "Most of the women I use on a runway have natural breasts. Or at least, natural-appearing breasts.") And codpieces. ("People didn't even think about [them]. 'Oh, I have to put on my codpiece.' And it's this phallus made out of velvet. Wild!") And lady parts. (The man whose Gucci ads once featured a G logo carved out of pubic hair now laments that "we're living in an era of absolute hairlessness.") The…

I learned how to understand an artist's world—how to talk to them, how to see through their eyes and understand their sensibility and vision. I do that now with photographers and stylists."

The bag du jour is far too polite to announce its presence with a look-at-me scream. With under-the-radar heritage houses on the rise and top brands competing to out-chic one another, Kay Barron welcomes the era of the anti–It Bag It Bag. A term so gauche it sends shivers down the spines of designers and insiders alike—though it still gives retailers dollar-sign-shape goose bumps. The It Bag died out around the time the bag became bigger than the girl, when one or both of the Olsen twins seemed in danger of disappearing into their Balenciaga Classics, and when the cost of physical therapy to correct back problems caused by lugging the Chloé Paddington, with its weighty padlock, became too much to bear. It Bags were an aughts phenomenon, their rise…

When a woman falls in love with an accessory, it can be an unforgettable moment. How many times have you found yourself sighing over a pair of shoes or earrings and convinced yourself that you just couldn't live without it? One great accessory—like this boldly patchworked "tambourine" bag by Proenza Schouler—can elevate not only your mood but also your entire look. This spring, designers offered a wealth of similarly bewitching accessories that are sure to take your breath away. From the enduringly classic to the far-out, from minimal monochromatic designs to dazzling diamond-encrusted feathers—we've got it all. Each piece is designed to seduce and entice, and nobody understands that better than the star of this issue's Spotlight, Tom Ford. Demonstrating a mastery of both sex and elegance, Ford's accessories can…

Charm School In her will, my grandmother, who lived to be 97, determined the fate of every single bit of jewelry she owned and specified exactly which of her five granddaughters would receive each piece. I am sure she made each of us feel we were somehow special, as she did me one night, when she took me aside and asked conspiratorially which of her items were my favorites, as she wanted to make sure I'd eventually receive them. She'd lived a good, long life, and along the way collected many fine things commemorating important occasions, life-changing journeys, and expressions of love from my grandfather and the rest of our family. I told her the only thing I really wanted was her gold charm bracelet, noisy as Christmas bells—filled with…

Karlie Kloss SUPERMODEL; COHOST, MTV HOUSE OF STYLE Thirty-five magazine covers; nearly 400 shows walked; face of Lanvin, Donna Karan, and Juicy Couture. Need we say more? 1) Jimmy Choo boots. "I'm obsessed. They sort of inspire a Jane Birkin–like personality." 2) "I've worn these Manolos on more red carpets than anything else. They're supersexy, and I have lots of happy memories of dancing in them—they're always in my luggage, just in case." 3) Lanvin sandals. "Alber [Elbaz] gave me these after a 3 A.M. fitting. Black snakeskin with an industrial gold heel. They're like works of art." 4, 5) Off-duty fave: It's a toss-up. "Repetto ballet flats are a perfect go-to. I did ballet for eight years before modeling and remember going to their Paris shop to buy pointe…

After 14 years of lending his skills to other designers, accessories wiz Paul Andrew puts his best foot forward with a collection of thoughtfully chic shoes for the rational woman. "I almost need the purity of black in my life," says Paul Andrew, ignoring the spectrum of decidedly nonblack spring heels lining his musk-scented showroom. Dressed in a trim dark suit complete with a starched clerical collar, the 34-year-old Brit is all business in both appearance and demeanor. "I find that if I'm embellishing myself in some way, it somehow prevents something inside of me from coming out and creating it." Andrew's seriousness is hard-earned. After graduating from the UK's Berkshire College of Art and Design in 1999 and apprenticing with Alexander McQueen, he made the leap to American soil,…
