From retro bags to future couture, Hint pays attention to retail
It's a bird! It's a mane! No, it's the Roots Stole scarf from Issey Miyake. The Japanese fashion hero continues to turn out forward but wearable works of art. His super-soft wooly creation will keep you cozy this winter while proving you're no fly-by-night fashionista. $520 at Issey Miyake Tribeca, 119 Hudson St. 212-226-0100 or Issey Miyake Madison, 992 Madison Ave., 212-439-7822. -Aric Chen

Hussein Chalayan
Quick, what's the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Hussein Chalayan? Ethnic-inspired wearable art? Conceptual deconstruction? This winter, you should be thinking skirts. These cargo-inspired minis from the modern maestro take military to a higher, much higher, level for those unafraid of the cold. From $610 at Kirna Zabete, 96 Greene St. 212-941-9656. -Aric Chen
