The British label is letting clients take things into their own hands with The Scarf Bar, a customizable pro- gram featuring 30 different colors (from classic camel to Parade Red) and prints. You can even monogram your creation for that personal touch. 633 N. Michigan Ave., 312-787-2500; burberry.com TO THE MAX Chicagoans looking to pump up their wardrobe have two new reasons to look to Max Mara. First, the label's exclusive 13-piece Atelier col- lection of handmade coats, designed by fashion director Laura Lusuardi, entices with both kimono-style and belt- ed versions and a fall-friendly color palette. Also, the Tailored Suit Project boasts wow-worthy pieces for the offi ce sophisticate—includ- ing double-breasted blazers and dinner jackets available in various hues, including Bordeaux and pale pink. 900 North Michigan Shops, 312- 475-9500; maxmara.com BAUBLE BOOK The stunning new coffee-table book Graff (Rizzoli; $95) stylishly chronicles the work of famed gemologist Laurence Graff, whose techniques have revolutionized the world of dia- monds. Featuring more than 200 pages of pho- tography, as well as a foreword by Vogue's Suzy Menkes, the book is alluring and also altruistic: All proceeds benefi t Facet, Graff's charitable foundation, which supports the well-being of people in sub-Saharan Africa, the area where the company sources many of its stones. 103 E. Oak St., 312-604-1000; graffdiamonds.com This year marks the 20th anniversary of DSquared2, whose fashion-forward styles have been spotted everywhere from Madonna's music videos to cat- walks worldwide—and to honor the milestone, the brand's founders, identi- cal twins Dean and Dan Caten, have created a landmark Fall/ Winter collec- tion. ICON pays homage to the label's "greatest hits" from the past two decades (think embellished jackets, voluminous parkas, and fringe bags), channeling the edg y aesthetic that has garnered DSquared2 a cult following that includes Justin Timberlake and Lenny Kravitz. "We design for people who want to feel different and a little bit out of the box," says Dan. Given that the offerings range from tailored tuxedo jackets and lumber- jack prints for men to colorful ponchos for women, it's clear that the brothers have plenty of inspiration to spare.
