UnBeige: Can Your Favorite Designer Cook?

Here’s a book tip from Stephanie Murg, the co-editor of mediabistro.com’s design blog, UnBeige: The Council of Fashion Designers of America has compiled an American Fashion Cookbook with 100 recipes from the likes of Donna Karan (green juice) and Zac Posen (butterscotch wafers), and a foreword from Martha Stewart. “We’re determined to try out Catherine Malandrino‘s crudités,” Murg comments, “which she recommends serving ‘on a white tablecloth along with a Rosé de Provence, the song of the cicadas as music and a field of lavender as a landscape.’ Lacking a proximal lavender field, we’ll substitute her purple jersey dress and hope for the best.”
