The Fashion Elite


Burrows dressed socialites, actresses, and supermodels. He won the American Fashion Critics’ annual Coty Award in 1973, 1974, and 1977.
Lessons: “I’ve learned you have to have a healthy business to have a business. It’s learning to blend the artistic and the commercial.”
Fashion Forward: “I see more color, more body conscious, more fun. If you take fashion too seriously, it becomes boring.”

JUNE HORNE
Distinction: Senior buyer American/European Designer Collections, Saks Fifth Avenue.
Vision: Covers shows in Europe and New York CIty to find clothes for 30 of Saks’ 64 stores in the U.S. “The beauty of certain regions is the opportunity to select for different markets: Boca Raton is young, sexy, and hot. Palm Beach is more sophisticated and ladylike.”
Trend Watching: The fall lines portrayed “country couture” — a contradiction between rustic and refined.
Outlook: Horne is excited about a crop of new young black designers, particularly James Thomas, who worked for Calvin Klein and is now developing his own line.
