Andrew Rosen of Theory and Helmut Lang to Invest in Proenza Schouler
by HauteLiving

Proenza Schouler was founded in 2002 by Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez while attending Parsons. Four years ago, they received an investment from Perima, a private-equity firm (also principal owner of Valentino), giving Perima 45 percent ownership in the fashion label. Hernandez, and McCollough own the rest along with Proenza’s chief executive officer, Shirley Cook.

It is said that a European private-equity firm will be selling it’s shares in Proenza Schouler to New York investors, Andrew Rosen, the executive behind Theory and Helmut Lang and John Howard, the chief executive of Irving Place Capital. Some of Howard’s other investments include shoemaker Stuart Weitzman and a retail chain in Ohio. Years ago, he also was an investor in the fashion labels Aéropostale and Seven for All Mankind.

Proenza has a large following in the luxury fashion world and most recently, an “it” bag, the PS1 which has been selling off the shelves for a few years. With the fashion and financial force behind Rosen and Howard, if the deal goes through, the future of Proenza Schouler has endless expansion possibilities.

Squaw Valley USA

North Lake Tahoe

http://squaw.wanderlustfestival.com

The Wanderlust Festival has already become one of the world’s most cutting-edge festivals, delivering a transformative experience to those who attend.  This four-day yoga and music festival is a feast for the senses, bringing together world-renowned musicians, leading yoga instructors, and delectable local food.  To add to the bliss, this all occurs amidst the the breathtaking mountaintop views from Squaw Valley, Lake Tahoe. Wanderlust seamlessly unifies music, art, yoga, and people.

San Francisco’s own Michael Franti and Spearhead leads the pack in the festival’s A-list music lineup.  Conveniently, the music begins at 7pm, giving attendees enough time to enjoy yoga classes and workshops scheduled during the day.  All styles of yoga are represented; even acrobatics and partner/acro-yoga!  Other festival amusements from previous years included constant music, juggling lessons, avant-garde performances, organized hikes, art installations, and lecture series.

Tickets are broken down into several packages:

Yoga and music passes range from $99 (single-day pass) up to $450 (four-day pass)

Daytime music passes start at $35.

There is something for everyone, so don’t let Wanderlust pass you by!

“Three espressos, really. Read the New York Times. Another espresso. A liter and a half of water with green tea. My Blackberry. Then, A second, semi-proper breakfast with my kids. Kisses, then everyone races to get out the door. I often try to squeeze in yoga once they’re gone.”

First Looks at Porsche 929
by Mollie Lichy

Juliana Cho is a genius when it comes to designing eco-conscious, sleek, futuristic cars.  The people at Porsche were smart (and very lucky) when they hired Ms. Cho as an intern. The Masters student who studies at the Royal College of Art has come up with a design for a new Porsche, the Porsche 929. Special features of this car include an electrically powered engine, suicide doors and a unique parking mechanism.  Because of the car’s prestige and rarity, it will be exclusive to a members only group in which members will share a fleet of cars. An individual charging outpost will be available to 929 drivers only. The car is in the beginning stages of design, but hopefully Cho’s innovative idea makes it to production!
