Bitmoji reveals more stylish clothes for your avatar
Sometimes technology just ain't cute.
Just look at a few of your favorite apps, one being Bitmoji. While entertaining, the messaging app, which allows users to create their own personal avatars, isn't up to snuff when it comes to the fashion department — especially if
you're a savvy style snob.
This lack of outfit choices was obvious to up-and-coming fashion designer Tanya Taylor, a rising star and Vogue Fashion Fund finalist. The 29-year-old, who already dressed Michelle Obama, said she was frustrated when creating a digital
representation of herself on the app.

"I'm a big Bitmoji user," Taylor says to Mashable. "But right now, my avatar is wearing a blue dress and I would never want to wear a blue dress in real life."

It was only after meeting with Bitmoji founder Jacob "Ba" Blackstock, the CEO of Bitstrips, that she had an a-ha moment.
"Jacob was expressing that he had this problem where his users weren't finding more of a likeness to their digital representation, a very modern problem," Taylor says. "I could offer up a solution."
The opportunity, Blackstock explains, only made sense for Bitmoji users.
"The way tech is going, we're living more and more of our lives in the digital world, and the more we represent ourselves and express ourselves digitally, the more personal style becomes an important aspect of the tech we're using," he
tells Mashable. "In real life, you express yourself through the clothes you wear, and with Bitmoji we're bringing that kind of expression into your digital life."

According to Blackstock, the app will continue to expand on its fashion options with a "big update," which will include "more designer choices for women." The brand will also update outfit choices for men as well, he reassures.
One suggestion we made to the CEO: Offer gender-neutral clothing, or allow men and women to wear outfits that go beyond the traditional gender norms. It is, after all, where fashion has been heading.
"When it makes sense," he replies.

"Our process for creating these outfits is extremely complex," he says. Every outfit is viewable from multiple angles, fully poseable and fits several body types, which amounts to a lot of work the company's relatively small art team.
"We could build every outfit for both genders and our audience would get half as many choices as a result."
Here's hoping Bitmoji becomes as inclusive as the current state of fashion, and does so quickly.
The three new Tanya Taylor looks drop today on the Bitmoji app, which you can download on iTunes here.

Pittsburgh Fashion Week Designer's Showcases highlight custom clothing, accessories
Pittsburgh Fashion Week Designer's Showcases highlight custom clothing, accessories
Bradford Mumpower makes garments for each individual model for a runway show.
As one of the featured collections at Pittsburgh Fashion Week's three Designer's Showcases, his line will be on the runway at 7 p.m. Sept. 23 at Highmark Stadium, South Side.
Mumpower created each piece individually for all 20 women, including having to make an additional outfit when one model dropped out and another took her place. He also fashioned an outfit for Miyoshi Anderson, Pittsburgh Fashion Week's executive director, to wear that evening.
“I like the clothes to fit right, so that is why I make the garment specifically for the model,” says Mumpower, a Highland Park resident who shares a studio with designer Kelly Lane in Lawrenceville. “I want to do the garment justice, and I want the model to feel comfortable wearing it on the runway.”
Mumpower is getting more comfortable being part of a runway show, with this being his second year participating.
Becoming a designer had always been in the back of his mind. He moved to Pittsburgh to study architecture at Carnegie Mellon University, after living all over the world with his Air Force father. It was here he realized his dream was to build garments instead of buildings.
“I am so excited that Pittsburgh has a fashion week,” says Mumpower, who also works as a massage therapist. “It says a lot about our city, and it means a lot to all of the fashion designers here.”
Mumpower struggles to describe his design style. He says he is inspired by African prints, vintage clothing and bright colors.
“I love seeing a woman wearing color,” he says. “It just says she is having a good time. Women are so much more fun to design for than men. And it is so rewarding when you see your design come to life on a model, especially when the garment fits her perfectly.”
Creating that custom garment is the passion of designer Carrie Ann Lehrman, who will showcase a collection on wedding, mother-of-the-bride, mother-of-the-groom and prom gowns at the Designer's Showcase on Sept. 22. Other designers include Fine Designs LTD, House of Le'lamone, Runway Couture, Allison Elizabeth Designs and RubyDawn Designs.
Lehrman's Oakdale shop, Dress Haute, carries dresses and customized gown designs.
“It's about bringing a dress to life for the one wearing it,” Lehrman says. “It's about a woman embracing her curves. Every woman is gorgeous and deserves to have the dress she wants for her special day.
“During fashion week, we hope to show an eclectic group of dresses.”
The runway isn't just for showcasing clothing. ReBag, a creative fashion design company, re-fashions apparel into stylish functional accessories such as handbags and laptop covers. Customers can send an item of clothing for re-fashioning.
Owner Yi Wang and her design team will showcase the collection Sept. 23, along with designers L.A.F.A.C.T. by Jacquay, Tamre Adams, Brittany Williams and Mumpower.
This will be the first time ReBag will be participating on the runway versus being a vendor.
“Pittsburgh Fashion Week is great,” says Wang of Squirrel Hill, who started the business while a student at the University of Pennsylvania. “We believe that fashion is for everyone and not just a luxury for the rich and that everyone has their own fashion style.
“Clothing has memories from certain times in your life and inspires who you are. We can take that clothing and re-create it in a different form.”

Lingerie outlets Wholesale Lingerie
Lingerie outlets across Russia may have to bin most of their stock under a bizarre trade directive that bans the import, production or sale of synthetic lace underwear.
A law affecting the Eurasian Union, the EU-style trade bloc made up of Russia, Kazakhstan and Belarus, means that lacy ladies’ underwear may disappear from shop shelves in all three countries on July 1.
Wholesale Lingerie
Like many of its most notorious EU counterparts, the legislation has ostensibly good intentions. It is aimed at protecting consumers from cheap materials that could have a negative health impact.
But lazy wording by the bureaucrats means that instead of tackling only the use of low-quality synthetic fibres, it will outlaw any underwear made of non-natural material that does not meet a 6 per cent absorption threshold.
Experts have said that means Russia’s lingerie outlets – which range from jaw-droppingly expensive luxury boutiques to metro-underpass stalls – will have to bin 90 per cent of their stock if the law is not amended.
