Fashion Friday: Joseph Altazura

Relative newcomer to the scene, Joseph Altazura is gaining as much attention as the boys from Proenza Schouler did back in 2004. With a resume like his, it's no wonder: he counts Givenchy, Marc Jacobs, and Jack and Lazaro as bosses.

His resort 2012 collection hints to the cuts of Proenza, the sexiness of Dolce, the innovation of Jill, the simplicity of Celine, and the clean lines of Chloe. Bridging the fashion ponds, Joseph hits the modern sensibility of a forward woman who's chic and confident.
