QUOTABLES!
quote of the day
The people who disrupt industries are never people from within the industry. It's people that look at that industry with fresh eyes because they don't have the burden knowing how things are done, so they think about how to do it better.
Warby Parker's Neil Blumenthal, in a Q&A with FashionREDEF

As someone who's worn glasses since he was nine years old, I have a strong affinity for WARBY PARKER. Stylish glasses you can actually afford? Basically the HOLY GRAIL to us bespectacleds. I chatted with WARBY PARKER co-founder and co-C.E.O. NEIL BLUMENTHAL for the latest FashionREDEF Q&A, and even if you have no interest in the eyewear industry, I think you'll find it a worthwhile read. Really impressed by the company's commitment to delivering exceptional service to its customers -- a downstream effect of making empathy a core tenet of your business... The Implications of Very Short Hair... Correction from yesterday: the BALMAIN x H&M collection is not going on sale today. Rather, it's being debuted this morning in NEW YORK CITY with "a runway show, a performance by an unidentified (but sure to be mega) pop star, and an Instagram-candy party." The collection goes on sale NOVEMBER 5. Big thanks to regular reader VOGUE ANONYMOUS, who is a great TWITTER follow, for pointing out the error. This is what happens when you file after midnight. More on the collection from VANESSA FRIEDMAN...
