Jeremy Scott Meets Bart Simpson at NYFW

"I present Bart as a teen dream, [because] that’s who he is to me," said designer Jeremy Scott in a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter. Scott, who is arguably one of our generation's greatest young designers, features the famous Simpsons son in his fall 2012 collection.

"I chased [Fox] down like a dog in heat," Scott said. "I fell madly in love with Bart. And I’m not even the diehard, every-episode fan. It’s just such a part of pop culture."

Scott, who’s clothing pieces are being seen all over the place right now, is becoming a major part of pop culture himself. Released last week, his Jeremy Scott x Adidas Originals collaboration effort is generating much chatter. The music and fashion industry’s elite have been seen in the collection’s sneakers, some of which feature plush teddy bears, Mickey Mouse, and the American flag.

Where have you seen Scott’s work most recently? Well, aside from Opening Ceremony at NYFW, Scott’s gold-winged sneakers and music note track suits were seen all over Madonna’s background dancers at this year’s Super Bowl halftime show.

Richard Chai X Jeremy Scott Collaboration

Known for two different aesthetics, designers Richard Chair and Jeremy Scott created a capsule collection for retailer Alternative Apparel, not to be confused with American Apparel. What differentiates Alternative Apparel is their unique spin on classic silhouettes, while still offering merchandise that is fashion-forward and does not compromise comfort.

Richard Chai & Jeremy Scott's capsule is a lightweight, chic and most importantly affordable. Prices range from $69-$129. Richard Chai's collection plays on silhouettes, incorporating asymmetrical lines with sheer, lightweight fabrics in trend-right colors (blushes and pastels). On the other hand Jeremy Scott's collection plays on body proportions, offering body-con pieces your basic black. Both collections are worth the toil of shopping online.
