adrian0719 220 Posted January 5, 2013 Not dead yet, but I had no idea where to put this post (we need a designers thread IMO). A small plane carrying the head of the Missoni fashion house and his wife has gone missing off the coast of Venezuela. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

adrian0719 220 Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) I'm petitioning to broaden this thread just to fashion designers in general. There are lots of them out there who could be discussed and we don't really have a place for them? (Maybe I'm missing something). Anyway, why waste a whole thread on some guy who doesn't even have his own Wikipedia article? Can someone change? Edited January 23, 2013 by Magere Hein Done.
